  • What About the Osbournes? Each Member of the Osbournes Has a Developed
    The Osbournes’: Genre, Reality TV, and the Domestication of Rock ‘n Roll by Rick Pieto and Kelly Otter The latest trend of television programming is reality TV, a genre that finds its most valuable content in the unabashed display of individuals willing to be put on display as they part with their privacy, dignity, and composure. The genre is clear, yet the formula varies so as to keep it fresh and increasingly bizarre to maintain its audience. Young women compete for a husband on camera by attempting to win the affection of a bachelor in six weeks; individuals compete for money by conquering their fears and consume live insects or allow themselves to be submerged under water for as long as possible; and couples test the strength of their relationships by subjecting themselves to the temptation of desirable strangers. Love, fear, and conflict provide the substance of a good story, and television producers have found a context in which drama is manufactured before a camera crew. But given the absence of a constructed context and specific roles to play, how do we define The Osbournes? How should we generically define this program about an aging heavy metal rock star and his “dysfunctional family?” One way to begin to place The Osbournes within an appropriate genre is to look at MTV’s presentation of the show. MTV sells The Osbournes as a reality TV sitcom and indeed its narrative structure is loosely similar to the sitcom formula, with real-life segments edited and sequenced to be reminiscent of a scripted program.

Introdução: Sobre o reality show musical American Idol Em 11 de junho de 2002, estreou na televisão americana o programa American Idol, cujo objetivo era determinar qual seria o melhor candidato na competição musical, apresentando ao público a nova voz estadunidense. Sobre o programa em questão, Monteiro (2014, p. 1) afirma: “A escolha é realizada por meio de uma hibridização entre o voto popular e as escolhas dos três juízes, que são experts da indústria musical, cultural, mercadológica e midiática, ou seja, são pessoas dotadas de conhecimentos específicos desse meio”.

Received Abstract 24/11/2020 Received in Most studies on talent competition shows (e.g., Culpeper & revised form Holmes, 2013; Garces-Conejos Blitvich et al., 2013; Tang, 12/01/2021 2016) do not delve into the role of judges giving positive Accepted comments to contestants.

It’s great to be a student again—the preparation for class, the butterflies if you get asked a question, the intellectual exchange of ideas—but, wait, I am the teacher! And I am not teaching one of my comfortable legal writing courses; I am teaching professional responsibility. Although being a student again and teaching a “casebook” course are two perspectives of legal education different from mine as a legal writing professor, I learned much about teaching legal writing from both. To teach professional responsibility for the first provide quality care to patients, law professors time, I had to become a student again—relearning should become students occasionally to remind old rules and studying new ones.
