  • Global Cities, Local Knowledge
    Formatting and Change in East Asian Television Industries: Media Globalization and Regional Dynamics Lim, Wei Ling Tania Patricia BSocSc (Hons), MSc (Media & Comms) Creative Industries Research and Applications Centre Queensland University of Technology Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2005 Keywords Circuit of cultural production, East Asian popular culture, Television industries, Field of broadcasting, Formatting, Local knowledge, Media capitals, Neo-networks, Regional dynamics, TV Formats, martial arts dramas, teenage idol soap operas, game-shows. ii Abstract Television is increasingly both global and local. Those television industries discussed in this thesis transact in an extensive neo-network of flows in talents, financing, and the latest forms of popular culture. These cities attempt to become media capitals but their status waxes and wanes, depending on their success in exporting their Asian media productions. What do marital arts dramas, interactive game-shows, children’s animation and teenage idol soap operas from East Asian television industries have in common? Through the systematic use of TV formatting strategies, these television genres have become the focus for indigenous cultural entrepreneurs located in the East Asian cities of Hong Kong, Singapore and Taipei to turn their local TV programmes into tradable culture. This thesis is a re-consideration of the impact of media globalisation on Asian television that re-imagines a new global media order. It suggests that there is a growing shift in perception and trade among once-peripheral television industries that they may be slowly de-centring Hollywood’s dominance by inserting East Asian popular entertainment into familiar formats or cultural spaces through embracing global yet local cultures of production.

Acknowledgements I want to thank my dissertation chair and advisor, Jennifer Glass, for her patience, encouragement, and suggestions from the earliest drafting of this research idea and through all of its iterations. She gave me the space to figure out what I needed from graduate school and the kind of scholar that I wanted to be; her practical guidance, training, and support kept me connected and grounded when I might have given up. I also want to thank Christine Williams and Sharmila Rudrappa for challenging me to learn from their experiences as feminist researchers and to grow into the questions and conversations that we’ve had. I am infinitely grateful to Madeline Hsu and David Takeuchi, for believing in me and my research interests. Their mentorship showed me how I might survive graduate school and directed me to the connections and resources that I desperately needed.
