  • An Analysis of Hegemonic Social Structures in "Friends"
    "I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU" IF YOU ARE JUST LIKE ME: AN ANALYSIS OF HEGEMONIC SOCIAL STRUCTURES IN "FRIENDS" Lisa Marie Marshall A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2007 Committee: Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor Audrey E. Ellenwood Graduate Faculty Representative James C. Foust Lynda Dee Dixon © 2007 Lisa Marshall All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze the dominant ideologies and hegemonic social constructs the television series Friends communicates in regard to friendship practices, gender roles, racial representations, and social class in order to suggest relationships between the series and social patterns in the broader culture. This dissertation describes the importance of studying television content and its relationship to media culture and social influence. The analysis included a quantitative content analysis of friendship maintenance, and a qualitative textual analysis of alternative families, gender, race, and class representations. The analysis found the characters displayed actions of selectivity, only accepting a small group of friends in their social circle based on friendship, gender, race, and social class distinctions as the six characters formed a culture that no one else was allowed to enter. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project stems from countless years of watching and appreciating television. When I was in college, a good friend told me about a series that featured six young people who discussed their lives over countless cups of coffee. Even though the series was in its seventh year at the time, I did not start to watch the show until that season.

  • Masculinities in the Television Series Friends
    Masculinities in the television series ‘Friends’ A different kind of male friendship? A dissertation submitted to the University of Manchester for the degree of MA (Econ) in the Faculty of Economic and Social Studies Manchester, September 2000 by Vegard Iglebæk Women’s Studies Centre Department of Sociology Abstract This dissertation discusses friendships between men in the Northern American television series Friends and focuses upon two of the male characters, Joey Tribbiani and Chandler Bing. Friends shows six twenty-something men and women, sharing two flats in the middle of New York's Manhattan. Even though the series can be interpreted as conveying heterosexual values aimed towards a younger, mainstream audience, I argue that the relation between two of the men, being flatmates, is possibly representing different models of male friendships than usually seen in these kind of series. Personal disclosure and intimacy among heterosexual, Northern-European and American men tend to be restricted to specific arenas and situations, such as blissful moments at the football pitch or in situations of external crisis. Joey and Chandler's constant negotiating of degrees of intimacy is among the plots in the series. However, their relation stands out from the crowd compared to other series' narratives of relations between men. Joey and Chandler can be interpreted as widening the degree of acceptable personal disclosure, rather than being threatened by it. One might claim that they are opening up spaces for new ways of doing heterosexual masculinities, struggling to define modes of acceptable communication in their strictly heterosexual context. I am scrutinising a few scenes from selected episodes, discussing these issues from a sociological point of view, informed by cultural theory.

  • 8 TV Power Games: Friends and Law & Order
    8 TV Power Games: Friends and Law & Order There is no such thing as a one-man show | at least not in television: one feature that all TV shows have in common is the combination of a large number of diverse contributors: producers, scriptwriters, actors, and so on. This is illustrated in Exhibit 8.1, which depicts the links between key contributors to the making and selling of a TV show. Solid lines repre- sent some form of contractual relationship, whereas dashed lines represent non-contractual relationships of relevance for value creation and value distribution. As is the case with movies, pharmaceutical drugs, and other products, the distribution of TV show values is very skewed: many TV shows are worth relatively little, whereas a few shows generate a very high value: For example, at its peak Emmy Award-winning drama ER fetched $13 million per episode.1 How does the value created by successful shows get divided among its various contrib- utors, in particular actors, producers and networks? Who gets the biggest slice of the big pie? In this chapter, I address this question by looking at two opposite extreme cases in terms of relative negotiation power: Law & Order and Friends. Law & Order | and profits The legal drama series Law & Order was first broadcast on NBC on September 13, 1990. (The pilot episode, produced in 1988, was intended for CBS, but the network rejected it, just as Fox did later, in both cases because the show did not feature any \breakout" characters.) By the time the last show aired on May 24, 2010, it was the longest-running crime drama on American prime time TV.

  • I Will Be There for You: Six Friends in a Clique∗
    I will be there for you: six friends in a clique∗ Ana L. C. Bazzan Computer Science Institute, UFRGS 91501-970 – P. Alegre, Brazil [email protected] Abstract Network science has proved useful in analyzing structure and dynamics of so- cial networks in several areas. This paper aims at analyzing the relationships of characters in Friends, a famous sitcom. In particular, two important aspects are in- vestigated. First, how are the structure of the communities (groups)? How different methods for community detection perform? Second, not only static structure of the graphs and causality relationships are investigated, but also temporal aspects. After all, this show was aired for ten years and thus plots, roles, and friendship patterns among the characters seem to have changed. Also, this sitcom is frequently asso- ciated with distinguishing facts such as: all six characters are equally prominent; it has no dominant storyline; and friendship as surrogate family. This paper uses tools from network theory to check whether these and other facts can be quantified and proved correct, especially considering the temporal aspect, i.e., what happens in the sitcom along time. The main findings regarding the centrality and tempo- ral aspects are: patterns in graphs representing different time slices of the show change; overall, degrees of the six friends are indeed nearly the same; however, in different situations (thus graphs), the magnitudes of degree centrality do change; betweenness centrality differs significantly for each character thus some characters are better connectors than others; there is a high difference regarding degrees of the six friends versus the rest of the characters, which points to a centralized network; arXiv:1804.04408v3 [cs.SI] 11 Dec 2019 there are strong indications that the six friends are part of a surrogate family.

  • Linguistic Analysis of Friends: the Case of Joey Tribbiani
    Facultat de Filosofia i Lletres Memòria del Treball de Fi de Grau Linguistic Analysis of Friends: The Case of Joey Tribbiani Anna Baczyk Grau d’Estudis Anglesos Any acadèmic 2019-20 DNI de l’alumne: Y4882990N Treball tutelat per Dra. Cristina Suárez Gómez Departament de Filologia Espanyola, Moderna i Clàssica S'autoritza la Universitat a incloure aquest treball en el Repositori Autor Tutor Institucional per a la seva consulta en accés obert i difusió en línia, Sí No Sí No amb finalitats exclusivament acadèmiques i d'investigació Paraules clau del treball: Discourse analysis, sociolinguistics, sexism in language, hegemonic masculinity, femininity performance, childish behaviours Abstract The study of gender discourse focuses mainly on language differences between two genders: male and female. However, it is a complex idea which cannot be directly expressed through English language. Therefore, this essay takes a sociolinguistics approach to distinguish gender differences and identities alongside linguistic features of childlike speech. Moreover, gender discrepancies have always been a subject of discussion in cultural products such as television series and films. Therefore, this dissertation will aim at sociolinguistic and linguistic representation of sexist, childish and feminine behaviours through the profound discourse analysis of one of the main characters, Joey Tribbiani, from one of the most popular American sitcoms, Friends (1994-2004). It will also present how the negative hegemonic masculinity discourse is neglected by the audience due to childlike and feminine performances defining him as one of the most attractive and sympathetic characters of the series. Additionally, the paper will give insights for further analysis on the social and cultural impact of such norms of conduct.

  • Professor, Dr. Timothy Helwig Unspoken Words: What Our “Friends”
    English 280, First Place; Professor, Dr. Timothy Helwig Unspoken Words: What Our “Friends” Say About Us Kelly Crowley Audience Analysis (140 Words): This analysis is written for white, middle class Americans who follow popular media and social trends. It could be published in a popular social analysis magazine, such as The Atlantic. The analysis primarily focuses on the audience’s values of strong friendships and equality among social classes, gender, and race. The goal is to inform readers on the stereotypes associated with race, gender, and social class and shed light onto the influence the popular television show Friends has on these stereotypes. Friends was the first of its kind to combine family and work life into one show at turn of the century and its influence on its large audience was incredibly significant. It is a call to action to recognize the stereotypes in popular television and media, especially the latent comments, and to eliminate the negative impacts they have on viewers. “Television speaks to our collective worries and to our yearning to improve, redeem, or repair our individual or collective lives… Television comments upon and orders, rather than reflects, experience, highlighting public concerns and cultural shifts” (Sandell 143). A common misconception is that mass media is a reflection of the people it targets. However, it is, in fact, the complete opposite; the people reflect the media they consume. With mass media, particularly television shows, shaping the minds of audiences all across America, many people fall victim to believing in the stereotypes commonly represented in their favorite late night sitcoms.
