    The Presence of Performance and the Stakes of Serial Drama: Accrual, Transience, Companionship Elliott Logan MPhil (University of Queensland, 2013) BA, Hons (University of Queensland, 2009) BA (University of Queensland, 2007) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2018 School of Communication and Arts Abstract This thesis shows how performance is a critically neglected but crucial aspect of serial television drama as an art form. One of serial drama’s obvious storytelling attractions is its ability to involve viewers in relationships between characters over long periods of time. Such involvement takes place through a recurring structure of episodes and seasons, whose unfolding reflects the extensive, ongoing history through which interpersonal bonds form and develop, deepen and decay. The characters we watch onscreen are embodied and performed by actors. Television studies, however, has persistently overlooked screen performance, hampering appreciation of serial drama’s affinity with long-term relationships as a resource for aesthetic significance. Redressing such neglect, this thesis directs new critical attention to expressive stylistic relationships between serial form, screen performance, and the subject of companionship in some recent US serial dramas. The focus of that attention is a particular aesthetic quality: the provisional, which emerges through serial drama’s distinctive tension between permanence and transience. In the first chapter, I argue that the provisional is central to an affinity between screen performance, seriality in television drama, and companionship as an aspect of human life. Chapters Two and Three then show how the art of the provisional in particular series has been underappreciated due to television studies’ neglect of performance and expressiveness as dimensions of serial form in television fiction.

This established a binary paradigm between Americans and Muslims, where Americans represented “us” whereas Muslims represented “them.” Through a qualitative analysis of the main characters in the post-9/11 terrorism-show, Homeland, season one (2011), as well as an analysis of the opening sequence and the overall narrative in the show, this thesis argues that this binary system of “us” and “them” is no longer black and white, but blurred, and hard to define. My analysis indicates that several of the enemies in the show break with the stereotypical portrayal of Muslims as crude, violent fanatics.

Este trabajo analiza en profundidad las las representaciones de padres de la ficción televisiva contemporánea, con especial atención a aquellas que –aún respondiendo a un estereotipo clásico- muestran una mayor complejidad en su construcción. Se han seleccionado tres representaciones de padres habituales en la ficción audiovisual: el padre proveedor, el ausente y el colega. Se trata de analizar sus características en el caso concreto de tres series estadounidenses que alcanzaron una gran repercusión global en los últimos años como son Mad Men (AMC, 2007-2015); Breaking Bad (AMC, 2008-2013) y Homeland (Showtime, 2011-hoy). Las tres series analizadas cuentan con un protagonista masculino de gran trascendencia, que va a marcar tanto el relato de la serie como de la relación que se establecen entre los restantes personajes. El trabajo pretende describir la representación de la paternidad en estas tres series contemporáneas inscritas en la llamada tendencia audiovisual de la “Quality TV”. Palabras clave: Ficción audiovisual; Series; Quality TV; representaciones; paternidad. [en] Media representation of fatherhood typologies in three successful contemporary tv series.
