  • Derek Kompare, Southern Methodist University
    TV Genre, Political Allegory, and New Distribution Platforms “Streaming and the Function of Television Genre” Derek Kompare, Southern Methodist University Although it’s been less than four years since Netflix introduced House of Cards, such exclusive programming has become a standard expectation on streaming platforms, which now consistently premiere several such series throughout each year. Cable networks such as HBO, AMC, Showtime, and FX continue to roll out this sort of critic- and high-demo-friendly programming, but streamers have legitimately challenged their dominance. Given rapidly shifting metrics and secretive distributors, we’ll never know the scope of this challenge in real audience terms. That said, the impact of this programming in media coverage can still be assessed. There, programs’ forms and distribution models are still as much a matter of public discussion as character arcs or story events. The concept of a “cable series” came to represent a broadening of established television standards of form and genre in the 2000s; the concept of a “streaming series” is just beginning to represent a similar break from the now-normative expectations of cable. Streaming’s on-demand architecture has been its primary cultural impact (regardless of what viewers actually demand to watch), and this distribution model has affected how television series are now conceived, produced, promoted, and consumed. A brief look at three relatively prominent series, on each of the major streaming services, reveals a bit about how the perception of

  • Pbs-Teacher-Planning-Kit-Jan-2021.Pdf
    WELCOME! Can you believe we’re halfway there? It’s almost impossible to believe that half the school year has passed and what a year it’s been so far. Some of you have been teaching in person; some have been managing your own children while you teach others from your living room, and some of you are doing both! Even though a vaccine seems right around the corner, the waiting seems endless. And we know life has been forever altered for many of us. We are speaking with educators, and have been thinking deeply about what we can do to support your teaching practice. We know that many of you have used the PBS Teacher Planning Kits for New School Routines, but for some of you, these planning kits are new. Our intention when we created them was to connect to the support we’re offering to teachers, parents and families, to make the most of PBS LearningMedia (all free!), and to reflect the hard fact that not all of your students have internet access. We know each teacher has their own unique circumstances and needs. We hope these planning kits help you navigate your routine, whatever that may be. We will make two more kits after this one, taking us all the way through the end of the school year. We want these kits to work for you, so as always, we are actively seeking feedback about how we can improve this resource or any of our available resources. Please do not hesitate to tell us what you think: what works, and what you would change because we’re learning together.
