  • Race and the Global Popularity of the Cosby Show Timothy Havens INDIANA UNIVERSITY
    ‘The biggest show in the world’: race and the global popularity of The Cosby Show Timothy Havens INDIANA UNIVERSITY Introduction The Cosby Show changed the face of American television and set a new standard for representing African American families in non-stereotyped roles. It rewrote the book on syndication when Viacom required stations to bid for the privilege of airing the show (Heuton, 1990), and it fuelled the networks’ efforts to have the FCC’s financial-syndication rules repealed to allow NBC to share in the show’s $600 million syndication revenues (Andrews, 1992). The Cosby Show also profoundly altered international television syndication, proving the international marketability of the now staple comedy format, establishing Viacom as a major distributor during a time of global deregulation, and drawing dedicated audiences as only Dallas and Dynasty previously had. While many scholars have addressed the show’s domestic popularity (Boyd, 1997; Downing, 1988; Gray, 1995; Press, 1991; Taylor, 1989), its international acceptance remains a virtual mystery.1 Recently, the world has witnessed a dramatic increase in the export of middle-class African American situation comedies which are directly linked to The Cosby Show’s success. This article investigates the various economic, textual and audience practices that led to the show’s international success, and that continue to make middle-class African American sitcoms lucrative international fare. In an era of increased interdependence of television markets, where shows must exhibit international appeal ‘before anything moves forward’ (Schapiro, 1991: 29) in domestic production, The Cosby Show set the representational and marketing standards that continue to determine what types of African American shows get produced, and where Media, Culture & Society © 2000 SAGE Publications (London, Thousand Oaks and New Delhi), Vol.

Roy Stafford TV Sitcoms and Gender Notes to support Pictureville Event February 2004 Sitcom Definition A setting and a group of characters providing the opportunity for a comic narrative, usually resolved in 25-30 minutes (although the ‘situation’ remains open to future disruption), and broadcast in a series of five or more episodes. Production and distribution • tv sitcom is essentially a ‘writer’s medium’; • although ‘stars’ are important, the characters they play are often more so; • in the US teams of writers v. in the UK, single or paired writers; • once successful, very long runs in the US v. much shorter seasons in the UK; • sitcom ideas have moved both ways across the Atlantic, but often it is easier for UK commentators to recognise those that go from the UK to the US (usually having to be changed to suit American tastes). Recently they have failed to make much impact (e.g. Men Behaving Badly, Coupling); • ‘live action’ shows have been used as the basis for animation (Bilko became Top Cat/Boss Cat, The Flintsones was based on a US family sitcom). The Simpsons has been by far the most successful ‘original’ animation series. 1 http://www.mediaculture-online.de • US shows are ‘syndicated’ across many channels and exported worldwide; • UK production contexts changed with the advent of Channel 4 and the rise of the ‘independent producer’ (sitcoms were the basis for the rise of new companies such as Hat Trick, Celador etc.).

  • Elly Miller 1928–2020
    News from the No. 31 September 2020 ❧ Editor’s Remarks ❧ New Publications ❧ Essays ❧ Covid Initiatives ❧ Discoveries ❧ Manuscript News ❧ Editor’s Remarks: Dear colleagues and manuscript lovers, Greetings from my new center of operations in Lakewood, Ohio, where I moved at the end of June this year. In keeping with my taste for older buildings, the present one dates to 1924, appropriately has gargoyles on the façade, creaky hardwood floors, considerably more living space, and is two blocks from Lake Erie. After 18 years in St. Louis, these last months have comprised a period of reflec- tion, adaptation, and refreshing re-invention. As the Roman lawyer Pomponius com- ments in Justinian’s Digest (Dig.40.5.20), “Though I have one foot in the grave, I would desire to learn something new.” I highly recommend it. (Learning something new, not having one foot in the grave, just by the way.) I am so sad to bring you the news that the manuscript publishing world has lost a staunch and dedicated colleague. I know that many of you worked with Elly Miller at some time and were grateful for her everlasting commitment to the excellence of editing and layout design on the printed page; I myself remember going over with her in London, repeatedly, word by word, the final versions of the essays for the Jonathan Alexander Festschrift. I publish below a short tribute by Lucy Sandler, which will be followed by a more comprehensive version for the ICMA newsletter. Elly Miller 1928–2020 Elly Miller, the guiding light of Harvey Miller Publishers for more than fifty years, died on Saturday, Au- gust 8.
