LIMITATIONS ON COPYRIGHT PROTECTION FOR FORMAT IDEAS IN REALITY TELEVISION PROGRAMMING I. INTRODUCTION Television networks constantly compete to find and produce the next big hit. The shifting economic landscape forged by increasing competition between and among ever-proliferating media platforms, however, places extreme pressure on network profit margins. Fully scripted hour-long dramas and half-hour comedies have become increasingly costly, while delivering diminishing ratings in the key demographics most valued by advertisers. It therefore is not surprising that the reality television genre has become a staple of network schedules. New reality shows are churned out each season.1 The main appeal, of course, is that they are cheap to make and addictive to watch. Networks are able to take ordinary people and create a show without having to pay “A-list” actor salaries and hire teams of writers.2 Many of the most popular programs are unscripted, meaning lower cost for higher ratings. Even where the ratings are flat, such shows are capable of generating higher profit margins through advertising directed to large groups of more readily targeted viewers.

  • A Comparative Study of Women's Aggression
    A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF WOMEN'S AGGRESSION Kiera M. Gaswint A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS May 2018 Committee: Kim Coates, Advisor Jeff Brown © 2018 Kiera Gaswint All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Kim Coates, Advisor This project explores women’s aggression in superhero, science fiction, and crime film through a close reading of Wonder Woman, Ghost in the Shell, and Atomic Blonde. All based in genres that are traditionally considered ‘for boys,’ these films are different from other superhero, science fiction, and crime films because they feature female leads with aggressive tendencies. Using Dana Crowley Jack’s theory of women’s aggression and Yvonne Tasker and Diane Negra’s definition of postfeminism, I argue that Diana, Major, and Lorraine revolutionize the image of the lead postfeminist character by offering examples of women’s aggression that resist acceptable, palatable representations of women’s aggression. Whereas in the past there have been many representations of aggressive women, those past representations have been affected by postfeminism in a way that commodifies and limits their ability to be authentically aggressive. I examine how these new films – Wonder Woman, Ghost in the Shell, and Atomic Blonde - play into and ultimately resist postfeminist representations because of their aggression and how that aggression is played out on the female body. In the following chapters I analyze how the heroines in Wonder Woman, Ghost in the Shell, and Atomic Blonde disrupt postfeminist notions and prior images of women’s aggression by explicitly examining aggressive women who are not domesticated or justified by rape.

Fox. The shows they wrote for included “The Honeymooners,” ‘The Phil Silvers Show,” “The Red Skelton Hour,” Bob Hope specials, “Here’s Lucy,” “All in the Family,” and “Maude.” These five writers were working in the earliest days of the medium and spent years writing for the personalities—from performers to producers—who pioneered and defined it. Most of them also wrote scripts during one of broadcast television’s greatest periods of transformation, when comedy took a decidedly topical turn that continued to have a significant impact on television comedy in the decades that followed. iii Table of Contents Introduction ……………………………..….……………….……..……1 Chapter One: Sydney Zelinka ……………………………....…..….…..15 Chapter Two: Larry Rhine ……………………………………......……32 Chapter Three: Milt Josefsberg ……………………...…….…...…....…58 Chapter Four: Seaman Jacobs and Fred S.

  • The Structure of Repetition in the Cinema: Three Hollywood Genres
    The Structure of Repetition in the Cinema: Three Hollywood Genres Inbar Shaham Open University of Israel, Department of Literature, Language, and the Arts Abstract The structure of repetition, as Meir Sternberg (1978) defines it, consists in the repeated presentation of a fabulaic event along the text continuum. It has three types of component members: (1) forecast (e.g., command, scenario); (2) enactment (represent- ing the forecast’s objective realization, as communicated by an authorized narrator); and (3) report (about an enactment, a forecast, or another report, all delivered by some character). This research examines the repetition structure in cinematic narrative: specifically, in heist, adventure, and military operation films. Throughout, the argu- ment proceeds with special reference to these genres, as well as to the cinema’s medium, practice, and conventions in general, often citing literary parallels or precedents for comparison. It examines the different elements that serve to (re)compose the repetition structure for certain ends; the types of member brought together within the structure; their size, number, forms of transmission, order of appearance, representational pro- portion, and possible interrelations (overlap, partial overlap, contradiction, expansion or summary of a previous member). Above all, the analysis relates these interplays themselves to the structure’s functions at the level of plot, meaning, and rhetoric, notably including their generic variations, as exemplified by the three focal genres. This article is based on parts of my doctoral dissertation, “Repetition Structure in the Cinema: From Communicational Exigency to Poetic Device” (Tel Aviv University, 2010). For details, see the appendix. I would like to thank Meir Sternberg for his generous and invaluable guid- ance in all stages of this research, from a BA seminar through an MA thesis and a PhD dissertation to this present publication.

  • I'd Like to Thank Jim Mcfarlin and the Board for Asking Me to Speak T
    SPEECH FOR PALM SPRINGS WRITERS GUILD © GARY KOTT 1 I’d like to thank Jim McFarlin and the board for asking me to speak today -- everyone who helped coordinate things -- and I’d also like to thank all of you for being here -- a roomful of writers -- my favorite people on earth -- over the years I’ve worked with extremely talented people -- actors -- great -- musicians -- great -- directors -- great -- but writers -- the best of the best. We’re the smartest -- the most creative of talents -- it all starts with what we put down on paper -- everything that follows is simply interpretation. SPEECH FOR PALM SPRINGS WRITERS GUILD © GARY KOTT 2 A bit of background -- I’ve been a professional writer since I was nineteen years old -- I was a reporter on my college paper -- the phone rang -- it was the sports editor of the town’s daily newspaper -- he’d read some of my articles and offered me a part-time job on the rewrite desk -- my salary was a dollar an hour -- I’ve never made one cent since as anything other than a writer. I mention this only to set the table for what I’d like to discuss today -- the big hurt -- the roller coaster -- ups and downs -- acceptance and rejection -- one day they think you’re a genius, the next day a dunce -- one day they’re going to publish your book, the next day you phone them, “Gary who?” It takes sensitivity and compassion to be a good writer -- and nerves of steel to put your work out there.
