  • Romance in Dollhouse Lorna Jowett
    ‘I love him... Is that real?’ Interrogating Romance in Dollhouse Lorna Jowett A Dollhouse Confession (not mine!), website Because of Joss Whedon’s commitment to what he regularly calls feminism in interviews and commentaries, the Whedon creations have consistently interrogated the myth of heterosexual romance. Long-running TV shows like Buffy and Angel offered wide scope for examining romance alongside other aspects of gender and sexuality. The mix of conventions in these earlier shows also lend themselves to negotiating romance from different angles, whether this is about characters growing up and changing their own ideas about romantic and sexual relationships, or what you can ‘get away with’ in a fantasy show about vampires. Firefly featured both a happily married couple and a sex-worker, neither common-place in network TV drama, allowing that shorter-lived series to move away from obvious conventions of romance. And then there’s Dollhouse, where almost all of the characters are either prostitutes or pimps. Melissa Milavec and Sharon Kaye suggest that Buffy ‘owes much of its popularity to making erotic love a dominant theme’ (2003: 174): Dollhouse may owe its lack of popularity to the way it treats much the same theme in a more disturbing fashion. ‘Like every good fairy tale, the story grows more intricate, and more divisive, every decade,’ says a reporter of Dollhouse rumours in ‘The Man on the Street’ (Dollhouse 1.6). His words are equally applicable to the myth of heterosexual romance as tackled by the Whedonverses on TV. The Whedon shows offer a sustained interrogation of gender, but are complicated by the demands of mainstream entertainment.

  • Liminal Identity in Contemporary American Television Science Fiction
    Liminal Identity in Contemporary American Television Science Fiction Rhys Owain Thomas Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Film, Television and Media Studies University of East Anglia August 2014 This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. Rhys Owain Thomas Student Number 4566211 Film (Research) R1W62012 Abstract This thesis examines the foregrounding of a particular type of liminal human protagonist in contemporary American television Science Fiction. These protagonists, which I have termed the ‘unliving,’ exist in-between the realms of life and death, simultaneously both alive and dead whilst occupying an indistinct middle- ground. I examine how the liminal nature of these protagonists has been used as a means of exploring various aspects of personal identity during the early years of the twenty-first century. Developing anthropologist Victor Witter Turner’s work, in which he argued for the universal occurrence of liminality in cultural, political, economic and social contexts, I argue that the use of liminal protagonists in American television Science Fiction constitutes a demonstrable trend. Although they are to be found in ever-increasing numbers in (and outside) the genre, their growing presence and significance have yet to be properly discerned, studied and appreciated. I analyse the use of these unliving protagonists in four key texts: Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (The Halcyon Company/Warner Bros.
