Along with his acting career, Hal recently joined the DGA following his directing several episodes of a hit comedy show on Disney. Last year, Sparks made a very memorable guest appearance on Netflix’s “Fuller House”, as D.J. Tanner’s (Candace Cameron Bure) ex-boyfriend, Nelson Burkhard. Sparks began his professional career as a teenager in Chicago. As a member of the famed Second City Troupe, his quick wit and affable personality quickly gained him recognition and acclaim and he was named the “Funniest Teenager In Chicago” by the Chicago Sun Times. Sparks went on to host the Emmy Award- winning “Talk Soup” on E! Entertainment Television, winning rave reviews from fans and critics alike. He starred for five seasons on Showtime’s hit series “Queer As Folk” – which was way ahead of its time – and appeared in the films “Extract,” “Spiderman 2” and “Dude, Where’s My Car?” Sparks starred in his own one-hour critically acclaimed Showtime comedy special, “Charmageddon,” which is now a best-selling DVD. Being a versatile talent, Sparks is also an accomplished musician performing with his popular band, Zero 1.

    Tuesday, February 2 Cipriani 42nd Street, NYC In the wake of the devastation brought about by the earthquake that leveled much of Haiti, the Underfashion Club has financially supported the efforts of Doctors Without Borders to provide emergency medical care to the survivors. Additionally, we applaud the efforts of so many other organizations, including K.I.D.S. (Kids In Distressed Situations,) a 25-year-old charity that has mobilized the apparel industry and already raised more than $6 million in products (clothes, socks, underwear and blankets) for the men, women and children of Haiti. Their efforts are ongoing and, in the months to come, as that country rebuilds and the news media departs, there will continue to be a need for a variety of items donated by manufacturers and retailers. If your company is is in a position to make new product donations in aid of this monumental relief effort, kindly consider contacting: 212.279.5493 / 800.266.3314 www.KIDSdonations.org The Underfashion Club, Inc.

  • Trabalho De Conclusão De Curso “Homoafetividade Na TV: Análise Das Séries Queer As Folk, the L Word E Looking”4
    Intercom – Sociedade Brasileira de Estudos Interdisciplinares da Comunicação XXXVIII Congresso Brasileiro de Ciências da Comunicação – Rio de Janeiro - RJ – 4 a 7/9/2015 Homoafetividade na TV: análise do casal Brian e Justin na série Queer As Folk1 Daniel Silveira da CRUZ2 Fabio Sadao NAKAGAWA3 Universidade Federal da Bahia, Salvador, Bahia Resumo O presente artigo analisa como os relacionamentos homoafetivos são representados em séries de televisão americanas. A pesquisa toma como objeto de análise o casal Brian e Justin de Queer As Folk. Com base em diferentes teóricos, os conceitos homossexualidade, homoerotismo e o termo homoafetividade colaboram para entender as definições acerca da atração por pessoas do mesmo sexo. Além disso, lançamos mãos da literatura sobre televisão, abordando as narrativas seriadas e um breve histórico sobre os personagens gays na TV. Palavras-chave: Queer as Folk; Homoafetividade; Homossexualidade; Séries televisuais Introdução O presente artigo é um recorte da pesquisa para o Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso “Homoafetividade na TV: análise das séries Queer As Folk, The L Word e Looking”4. O estudo foi realizado com as primeiras temporadas das séries citadas a fim de responder a questão: como são representados os casais homoafetivos em séries de TV americanas? Ou seja, de que maneira os afetos entre casais homossexuais são construídos pelas narrativas serializadas americanas? Neste artigo, abordaremos a construção da homoafetividade no casal Brian Kinney e Justin Taylor usando como corpus a primeira temporada de Queer As Folk. A série lançada em 2000 foi exibida originalmente no canal Showtime, nos Estados Unidos e no canal Showcase, no Canadá. Mostra, em cinco temporadas, histórias dos amigos gays Brian Kinney (Gale Harold), Michael Novotony (Hal Sparks), Emmet Honeycutt (Peter Page), Ted Schmidt (Scot Lowell) e Justin Taylor (Randy Harrison).

  • Queering the Family: Kinship, Blood Relations and Marriage in Showtime’S Queer As Folk Marianne Kongerslev Copenhagen Business School, Denmark
    Queering the Family: Kinship, Blood Relations and Marriage in Showtime’s Queer as Folk Marianne Kongerslev Copenhagen Business School, Denmark Abstract This essay explores the ways in which the American television series Queer as Folk (2000–2005) constructs queer families. The show responds to the social and cultural challenges faced by LGBT families and expresses differing attitudes to assimilationism and compulsory heterosexuality. By juxtaposing two traditional, though homosexual, family units with an anti-assimilationist worldview, Queer as Folk questions what family signifies. The essay analyzes the series’ treatment of gay male versus lesbian kinship and sexuality, and its assumptions about gender, through the family as a central trope. Keywords Queer as Folk (US); television series; queer studies; family; gay marriage; LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) Any discussion in an American context of the notion of “family” will necessarily be complicated by the troublesome relationship between the reality of a heterogeneous population on the one hand, and the desire for homogeneity on the other. In addition, it is impossible to define with any accuracy what a family is or is supposed to be,1 but as Kath Weston points out, the “privileged construct” appears to be the heteronormative family paradigm.2 Bernstein and Reimann state that “in 1998, only 6.7 percent of all households [in the US] fit the ‘traditional’ nuclear-family model.”3 With this statistic, it can seem rather curious that the issue of gay marriage and queer families is such a controversial one. Part of the explanation may lie in the notion of national myths or idealized perceptions of imagined communities.

Freymiller © 2006 Lyn J. Freymiller Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy May 2006 The thesis of Lyn J. Freymiller was reviewed and approved* by the following: Michelle A. Miller-Day Associate Professor of Communication Arts and Sciences Thesis advisor Chair of Committee Thomas W. Benson Professor of Speech Communication and Edwin Erle Sparks Professor of Rhetoric Ronald L. Jackson Associate Professor of Communication Arts and Sciences Stephanie A. Shields Professor of Psychology and Women’s Studies James P. Dillard Department Head and Professor of Communication Arts and Sciences *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii Abstract Recently, much has been made of the prevalence of gay characters on television, but there has been little investigation of the construction of gay identity on television. Meanwhile, these gay representations are presumed to sensitize straight viewers to gay people, but little study has focused on the responses of gay viewers to portrayals of fictional gay characters. This project consists of two studies that explore portrayals of, and gay viewer responses to, gay television characters. The studies are guided by the communication theory of identity and its tenet of identity as consisting of several interrelated dimensions including personal, relational, and communal. The first study investigates three notable television texts featuring gay and lesbian characters and analyzes how the characters are constructed on various identity dimensions.

  • American Television, Drama by Nathan G
    American Television, Drama by Nathan G. Tipton Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com Despite a steady increase in the number of "big screen" queer characters and queerly-themed movies, the overt presence of gays and lesbians on the American small screen has been (and continues to be) far more limited. As Suzanna Danuta Walters has explained, while film has long dealt with gay subjects (albeit in often stereotyped or "tragic" ways), television's explicitly family-centric format appeared to mandate that glbtq persons were simply not a part of families that made up "typical" family audiences. After all, Walters continues, the intense intimacy and centrality of television in the personal space of family life provides a particular type of viewing experience that is fundamentally distinct from the relative anonymity of movie theaters. Not surprisingly, this family-centrism is displayed most prominently in programs shown by the five broadcast television networks, ABC, CBS, NBC, The CW, and Fox. These networks have historically been reticent about tackling homosexuality in its multifarious forms, preferring instead to leave these programming decisions to the proliferating number of cable networks. Still, long before the advent of cable, broadcast networks were tentatively exploring homosexuality by vicariously inserting into dramatic television series stereotypically gay characters. Â Early Representations From 1968 to 1974, as Edward Alwood has explained, homosexuals on television were recognizable in programs such as Kojak, M*A*S*H, Police Woman, and Hawaii Five-O because of their routine representation as limp-wristed, effeminate drag queens who walked with a swish and talked in high-pitched voices.
