  • Transgender Representation on American Narrative Television from 2004-2014
    TRANSJACKING TELEVISION: TRANSGENDER REPRESENTATION ON AMERICAN NARRATIVE TELEVISION FROM 2004-2014 A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Kelly K. Ryan May 2021 Examining Committee Members: Jan Fernback, Advisory Chair, Media and Communication Nancy Morris, Media and Communication Fabienne Darling-Wolf, Media and Communication Ron Becker, External Member, Miami University ABSTRACT This study considers the case of representation of transgender people and issues on American fictional television from 2004 to 2014, a period which represents a steady surge in transgender television characters relative to what came before, and prefigures a more recent burgeoning of transgender characters since 2014. The study thus positions the period of analysis as an historical period in the changing representation of transgender characters. A discourse analysis is employed that not only assesses the way that transgender characters have been represented, but contextualizes American fictional television depictions of transgender people within the broader sociopolitical landscape in which those depictions have emerged and which they likely inform. Television representations and the social milieu in which they are situated are considered as parallel, mutually informing discourses, including the ways in which those representations have been engaged discursively through reviews, news coverage and, in some cases, blogs. ii To Desmond, Oonagh and Eamonn For everything. And to my mother, Elaine Keisling, Who would have read the whole thing. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Throughout the research and writing of this dissertation, I have received a great deal of support and assistance, and therefore offer many thanks. To my Dissertation Chair, Jan Fernback, whose feedback on my writing and continued support and encouragement were invaluable to the completion of this project.

    USC Dornsife in the News Archive - 2011 December December 26, 2011 - January 3, 2012 The New York Times featured a Q&A with David Treuer of English, who recently wrote Rez Life, a book about growing up on a reservation in Minnesota. The Washington Post quoted Dan Schnur, director of the Jesse M. Unruh Institute of Politics, about Mitt Romney’s ascendance in the field of Republican presidential candidates. Today (Singapore) cited Antonio Damasio, director of USC’s Brain and Creativity Institute, about the neural processes governing empathy and deep thought. Friday, December 23, 2011 Los Angeles Times ran an op-ed by Janet Fitch of the Master of Professional Writing Program reflecting on her mother’s cooking during the holidays. Wired quoted David Bottjer of earth sciences and biological sciences about new research on fossils that may hint at how multi-cellular creatures first came into being. Smithsonian cited research by Kaspar Meyer of psychology, finding that when study subjects were shown silent film clips, the brain regions governing sound would light up. Thursday, December 22, 2011 The New York Times ran an op-ed by David Treuer of English about how American Indian identity has been exploited by both the U.S. government and tribal people themselves at various times in history. Racial mixing has led to complications in tribal identification as well as knowing who should receive reservation benefits, Treuer wrote. Ultimately, tribes need to use metrics beyond bloodlines to identify members. "Having survived this long and come this far, we must think harder about who we want to be in the future, and do something more than just measure out our teaspoons of blood," he wrote.

    SEASON 1 QUOTES Variety, March 12, 2010 (Brian Lowry) “…the ‘Deadwood’ alum enlivens every scene he’s in…” “…a wonderfully old-fashioned drama…” “…Olyphant delivers an unabashed star turn in this one.” “…an enormously appealing performance…” “Thanks to Olyphant, women, too, might find more to like about the show than your average dry cop procedural.” “JUSTIFIED has a clear sense of its strengths and shrewdly plays to them. For FX, that savvy combined with Olyphant’s charisma has all the makings of a series destined to nail its target.” USA Today, March 23, 2010 (Robert Bianco) “No matter how good a show’s pilot may be, you’re always justified in worrying that a good pilot may be all the show has to offer. So you should be relieved to hear the next two episodes of FX’s extremely promising JUSTIFIED are just as smart and sharp as last week’s premiere.” “JUSTIFIED stars a terrific Timothy Olyphant…” “Surprisingly funny, and at times, equally surprisingly violent, JUSTIFIED is FXs most entertaining series since ‘Rescue Me.’ And that’s high praise, indeed.” USA Today, March 16, 2010 (Bruce Schwartz) “One of spring’s most promising new series…” USA Today, March 2, 2010 (Robert Bianco) JUSTIFIED was included as one of Robert Bianco’s TV Picks for the month of March in his “The I’ds (I’d Watch) of March” “One of spring’s most promising new series…” Associated Press, March 27, 2010 (Frazier Moore) “The show is colorful and quirky, befitting its roots in the fiction of crime novelist Elmore Leonard.” Wall Street Journal, March 26, 2010 (Nancy deWolf
