For many college students, sitcoms are a form of social currency. These shows form the basis of in-jokes, provide experi- ences for friends to bond over and establish many of the quintessential catchphrases of pop culture. Out of the hundreds of shows that populate this oversaturated market, a special few stand apart as the defining sitcoms of the 21st century. After surveying the Cedarville student body, here are the top five sitcoms of the 2000s.

Maria Carmem Jacob Souza Salvador 2009 3 Sorte de hoje: a vida é um drama para quem vive e uma comédia para quem pensa. 4 AGRADECIMENTOS Escrever uma monografia a quatro mãos é uma tarefa complicada, portanto gostaríamos de começar agradecendo uma à outra. Pela paciência, compreensão e apoio nos momentos de desespero. Pelos anos comentando os episódios semanais de The Office religiosamente e pelo respeito aos spoilers quando uma assistiu antes da outra. Fazer pesquisa sobre uma série querida e com uma amiga foi um aprendizado e um prazer. Voltando a lista, é imprescidível agradecer imensamente a Ian Fraser por ser nosso maior patrocinador e fã, além de suportar a invasão de um ser estranho bagunçando sua rotina com discussões longas, maratonas de episódios e de escrita. Às nossas mães e famílias que, apesar de não fazerem ideia do que estávamos fazendo e porque estávamos tão ocupadas e ranzinzas, tentaram ajudar da forma que podiam. À Carmem, que mesmo ainda não tendo se rendido ao humor tanto nos inspirou e já ganhou mais duas fãs.

This course is oriented to students who have a solid background in television and in the industry and is not an introductory course. Course Overview: This is a "real-time" class that will follow the life and death of a television season. We will study what makes it on the air, why it gets there, who creates it, who sells it, who buys it and who is going to pay for it. The cultural forces that influence and shape creative choices; cultural, political and commercial, will be examined. The discussion is overlaid with the struggle of the networks to survive in a rapidly changing environment and in the face of new technologies. And as the networks and creators work to transform and adapt, we will look at the new opportunities this era of change offers for fresh talent. Class will meet once a week for three hours. There are two formal papers: The Broadcast Day and the final paper, Show Redevelopment. There are also homework assignments that include written work and required viewing with assigned criteria for evaluating programs.

  • The Invisible Journalist: Understanding the Role of the Documentary Filmmaker As Portrayed in the Office
    The Invisible Journalist: Understanding the Role of the Documentary Filmmaker as Portrayed in The Office Massiel Bobadilla JOUR575 –Joe Saltzman Image of the Journalist in Popular Culture May 5, 2011 Bobadilla 2 ABSTRACT: This study aims to shed light on the enigmatic ‘mockumentary’ filmmaker of The Office by using specific examples from the show’s first six seasons to understand how the filmmaker is impacted by and impacts concepts of journalism and the invasion of privacy. Similarly, the filmmaker in the American version of The Office will not only be compared and contrasted to the role of the filmmaker in the British version, but also will be compared to the anthropologic ethnographer an “outsider” attempting to capture life as faithfully as possible in a community to which he/she does not belong. The American interpretation of The Office branched out of Ricky Gervais’s British original of the same name with the pilot episode hitting the airwaves on NBC on March 24, 2005,1 to largely mixed reviews from critics, but a strong showing among viewers.2 The show’s basic premise is that of a faux documentary providing an inside look at the day-to-day life of the employees of a mid-level paper company. The primary focus centers on the socially inept branch manager, his even more inept right-hand-man, and the budding romance of the young and earnest paper salesman and the mild-mannered receptionist who happens to be inconveniently engaged to one of the branch’s warehouse workers.

    INVESTIGATION: 10-YEAR REVIEW OF GENDER & EMMY NOMINATIONS womensmediacenter.com WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER ABOUT THE WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER In 2005, Jane Fonda, Robin Morgan and Gloria Steinem founded the Women’s Media Center (WMC), a progressive, nonpartisan, nonpro!t organization endeavoring to raise the visibility, viability and decision-mak- ing power of women and girls in media and, thereby, ensuring that their stories get told and their voices are heard. To reach those necessary goals, we strategically use an array of intercon- nected channels and platforms to transform not only the media landscape but also a culture in which women’s and girls’ voices, stories, experiences and images are neither suf!ciently ampli!ed nor placed on par with the voices, stories, experiences and images of men and boys. Our strategic tools include monitoring the media; commissioning and conducting research; and undertaking other special initiatives to spot- light gender and racial bias in news coverage, entertainment !lm and television, social media and other key sectors. Our publications include the book “Unspinning the Spin: The Women’s Media Center Guide to Fair and Accurate Language”; The Women’s Media Center’s Media Guide to Gender Neutral Coverage of Women Candidates + Politicians”; “The Women’s Media Center Guide to Covering Reproductive Issues”; and the Women’s Media Center’s annual “The Status of Women in the U.S. Media” report. Our WMC Women Under Siege project investigates sexualized violence. Our original content channels — WMC Features, WMC FBomb, WMC Speech Project and the “Women’s Media Center Live with Robin Morgan” radio program — provide women’s perspectives on both headline stories and timely events that are ignored, not wholly captured or misrepresented in the mainstream media.
