Nachdem er seine Beziehung mit Rabbi Raquel gerettet und seinen vor kurzem zurückgekehrten Sohn Colton bei sich aufgenommen hat, scheint für Josh endlich alles gut zu laufen. Aber kann er ein guter Partner und Vater sein, obwohl er nie ein positives Vorbild hatte? ALI (Gaby Hoffmann)................................................................................................ konzentriert sich auf ihre Zukunft und bereitet sich auf ihr Studium vor. Während sie sich in die akademische Welt stürzt, entdeckt sie zufällig Teile der Familiengeschichte, die seit Generationen im Verborgenen liegen. Sie wäre nicht Ali, wenn es nicht auch eine sexuelle Intrige auf dem Campus gäbe, die einige ihrer wichtigsten Beziehungen bedroht – auch die mit Maura. Ali versucht die Bedürfnisse von anderen mit ihrer eigenen Neugier in Einklang zu bringen und so gelingen ihr einige unerwartete Aussöhnungen. 8 SARAH (Amy Landecker)........................................................................................ schießt weiterhin ihre Beziehungen in den Wind, um ihre vage Unzufriedenheit mit ihrem Leben zu lindern. Ihre Zerstörungswut sorgt für Streit mit früheren Freunden und anderen Müttern aus der Schule. Trotzdem findet sie immer noch keine Befriedigung für das Kribbeln, das seit Jahrzehnten in ihr verborgen liegt. Zielstrebig wie eh und je versucht Sarah, das Rätsel ihres Begehrens zu lösen. shelly (Judith Light).............................................................................................. hat gerade Ehemann Nummer zwei verloren. Ihre Trauer verarbeitet sie genauso, wie sie andere bemuttert: mit einer Beklommenheit, die verhindert, dass sie zu irgendjemandem eine Verbindung aufbaut – insbesondere nicht zu ihrer Familie. Doch als frischgebackener Single in Marina del Rey bieten sich ihr einige romantische Überraschungen. maura (Jeffrey Tambor)......................................................................................... ist den nächsten Schritt auf ihrem Weg gegangen. Kann sie nun, da sie offen als Frau lebt, endlich glücklich sie selbst sein? Nichts an ihrem neuen Leben ist einfach: In der Trans-Community fasst sie nur schwer Fuß, ihre Herkunftsfamilie lehnt sie ab und, romantische Liebe zu finden, ist sehr schwierig. Dennoch inspiriert Maura ihre erwachsenen Kinder und ihre Exfrau dabei, ganz sie selbst zu sein – genau wie Maura. 9 FAMILY OWNED SINCE 2014 Patchwork at its best: Familie Pfefferman mit ihren Lieben. 10 1 2 3 4 Beziehungsgeschichten: [1] Jeff und Raquel (Kathryn Hahn, l.), [2] Sarah und Tammy (Melora Hardin, l.), [3] Alis Freundin Syd (Carrie Brownstein, l.) sowie [4] Shelly (l.) und Maura. 11 JAY DUPLASS Jay startete seine Karriere im

  • The Queer" Third Species": Tragicomedy in Contemporary
    The Queer “Third Species”: Tragicomedy in Contemporary LGBTQ American Literature and Television A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department English and Comparative Literature of the College of Arts and Sciences by Lindsey Kurz, B.A., M.A. March 2018 Committee Chair: Dr. Beth Ash Committee Members: Dr. Lisa Hogeland, Dr. Deborah Meem Abstract This dissertation focuses on the recent popularity of the tragicomedy as a genre for representing queer lives in late-twentieth and twenty-first century America. I argue that the tragicomedy allows for a nuanced portrayal of queer identity because it recognizes the systemic and personal “tragedies” faced by LGBTQ people (discrimination, inadequate legal protection, familial exile, the AIDS epidemic, et cetera), but also acknowledges that even in struggle, in real life and in art, there is humor and comedy. I contend that the contemporary tragicomedy works to depart from the dominant late-nineteenth and twentieth-century trope of queer people as either tragic figures (sick, suicidal, self-loathing) or comedic relief characters by showing complex characters that experience both tragedy and comedy and are themselves both serious and humorous. Building off Verna A. Foster’s 2004 book The Name and Nature of Tragicomedy, I argue that contemporary examples of the tragicomedy share generic characteristics with tragicomedies from previous eras (most notably the Renaissance and modern period), but have also evolved in important ways to work for queer authors. The contemporary tragicomedy, as used by queer authors, mixes comedy and tragedy throughout the text but ultimately ends in “comedy” (meaning the characters survive the tragedies in the text and are optimistic for the future).

    EMBARGOED UNTIL 8:40AM PT ON JULY 14, 2016 68th EMMY® AWARDS NOMINATIONS For Programs Airing June 1, 2015 – May 31, 2016 Los Angeles, CA, July 14, 2016– Nominations for the 68th Emmy® Awards were announced today by the Television Academy in a ceremony hosted by Television Academy Chairman and CEO Bruce Rosenblum along with Anthony Anderson from the ABC series black-ish and Lauren Graham from Parenthood and the upcoming Netflix revival, Gilmore Girls. "Television dominates the entertainment conversation and is enjoying the most spectacular run in its history with breakthrough creativity, emerging platforms and dynamic new opportunities for our industry's storytellers," said Rosenblum. “From favorites like Game of Thrones, Veep, and House of Cards to nominations newcomers like black-ish, Master of None, The Americans and Mr. Robot, television has never been more impactful in its storytelling, sheer breadth of series and quality of performances by an incredibly diverse array of talented performers. “The Television Academy is thrilled to once again honor the very best that television has to offer.” This year’s Drama and Comedy Series nominees include first-timers as well as returning programs to the Emmy competition: black-ish and Master of None are new in the Outstanding Comedy Series category, and Mr. Robot and The Americans in the Outstanding Drama Series competition.

  • Psycho Killers, Circus Freaks, Ordinary People: a Brief History of the Representation of Transgender Identities on American TV Series
    Psycho Killers, Circus Freaks, Ordinary People: A Brief History of the Representation of Transgender Identities on American TV Series Abstract: In 1965, popular TV Series The Alfred Hitchcock Hour (NBC) aired the episode “An Unlocked Window”, in which it is revealed that the nurses killer in the area is a transvestite. It was the first time a transgender character appeared on a TV series, and until the late 80s that was the most stereotypical and basic – because it was minimal – representation of transsexuals on broadcast TV series and films: as psychopaths and serial killers. Other examples are Aldo Lado’s Who Saw Her Die? (1972), Brian de Palma’s Dressed to Killed (1980), Robert Hiltzick’s Sleepaway Camp (1983) and Jonathan Demme’s The Silence of the Lambs (1991). Throughout the 90s the paradigm changed completely and transsexual characters became much more frequent. However, the change was not for good, as they were turned now into objects of mockery and disgust in comedy TV series and films, in which the protagonist heterosexual male was “deceived” into kissing or having sex with an “abhorrent” trans just as a comic device. In the comedies Soapdish (1991), Ace Ventura (1994), and Naked Gun 33 1/3 (1994), the male protagonist ends up literally throwing up when he realizes that the girl he had been kissing was not born a female. Friends (1994-2004) and Ally McBeal (1997-2002) are also series of the late 90s in which the way transgender characters are represented is far from being appropriate. It has not been until the Golden Globe and Emmy awarded TV series Transparent (2014-2016) when transgender issues have been put realistically on the front line with the accuracy and integrity that they deserve.

  • Academy of Television Arts & Sciences
    68 YEARS OF EMMY® 1948 The Emmy Awards are conceived. The Television Academy’s founding fathers struggle to name the award: Television Academy founder Syd Cassyd suggests “Ike,” the nickname for the television iconoscope tube. Pioneer television engineer and future (1949) Academy president Harry Lubcke suggests “Immy,” a nickname for the image-orthicon camera tube instrumental in the technical development of television. “Immy” is feminized as “Emmy” because the statuette, designed by engineer Louis McManus (who enlisted his wife Dorothy to model for it) depicts the winged “muse of art uplifting the electron of science.” 1949 First Emmy Awards – given to Los Angeles area programming – take place at the Hollywood Athletic Club on January 25. Tickets are $5.00. It is broadcast on local station KTSL. There are less than a million television sets in the U.S. The master of ceremonies was popular TV host Walter O’Keefe. Six awards are given: • Most Outstanding Television Personality: Twenty-year-old Shirley Dinsdale and her puppet sidekick Judy Splinters for “The Judy Splinters Show.” • The Station Award for Outstanding Overall Achievement: KTLA (the first commercial television station west of the Mississippi River). • Technical Award: Engineer Charles Mesak of Don Lee Television for the introduction of TV camera technology. • The Best Film Made for Television: “The Necklace” (a half hour adaptation of Guy de Maupassant's classic short story). • Most Popular Television Program: “Pantomime Quiz.” • A special Emmy is presented to Louis McManus for designing the statuette. 1950 Second Emmy Awards (January 27, Ambassador Hotel) • KFI-TV broadcasts, the six other Los Angeles area stations share expense of the telecast.
