  • Rebooting Roseanne: Feminist Voice Across Decades
    Home > Vol 21, No 5 (2018) > Ford Rebooting Roseanne: Feminist Voice across Decades Jessica Ford In recent years, the US television landscape has been flooded with reboots, remakes, and revivals of “classic” nineties television series, such as Full/er House (1987-1995, 2016- present), Will & Grace (1998-2006, 2017-present), Roseanne (1988-1977, 2018), and Charmed (1998-2006, 2018-present). The term “reboot” is often used as a catchall for different kinds of revivals and remakes. “Remakes” are derivations or reimaginings of known properties with new characters, cast, and stories (Loock; Lavigne). “Revivals” bring back an existing property in the form of a continuation with the same cast and/or setting. “Revivals” and “remakes” both seek to capitalise on nostalgia for a specific notion of the past and access the (presumed) existing audience of the earlier series (Mittell; Rebecca Williams; Johnson). Reboots operate around two key pleasures. First, there is the pleasure of revisiting and/or reimagining characters that are “known” to audiences. Whether continuations or remakes, reboots are invested in the audience’s desire to see familiar characters. Second, there is the desire to “fix” and/or recuperate an earlier series. Some reboots, such as the Charmed remake attempt to recuperate the whiteness of the original series, whereas others such as Gilmore Girls: A Life in the Year (2017) set out to fix the ending of the original series by giving audiences a new “official” conclusion. The Roseanne reboot is invested in both these pleasures. It reunites the original cast for a short-lived, but impactful nine-episode tenth season.

Kathryn Bonella, the producer, informed Dr Wexler on her arrival for the interview that the subject was a little different from what Dr Wexler was thinking. The subject was still to be about extractions and early treatment but not about the material that so much time had been spent on, over the phone with Ms Bonella, namely Dr Rondeau and his views about Australian Orthodontists. 2. Before the recording began, but while Dr Wexler was facing Mr Overton and while the cameraman was getting ready, Dr Wexler asked to be told the questions. Mr Overton provided two and revealed he had a few surprises to spring including photos that Ms Bonella firmly directed him NOT to reveal until the interview was rolling. OVERTON: GEOFF WHAT DO YOU THINK THE PERCEPTION IS AMONGST THE MUMS AND DADS OF THE OF THE SCHOOL KIDS IN THE PLAY GROUND IS OF ORTHODONTICS? DR WEXLER: PEOPLE ARE INTERESTED IN HEALTH AND BEAUTY THESE DAYS, MORE AND MORE THAN EVER, THEY ARE BOMBARDED WITH IMAGES OF IT.

  • Cpage Paper 5 Marae Sept 30
    2002 - 5 FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION Media Ownership Working Group Program Diversity and the Program Selection Process on Broadcast Network Television By Mara Einstein September 2002 Executive Summary: This paper examines the extent to which program diversity has changed over time on prime time, broadcast network television. This issue is assessed using several different measurement techniques and concludes that while program diversity on prime time broadcast network television has fluctuated over time, it is not significantly different today than it was in 1966. The paper also explores the factors used by broadcast networks in recent years in program selection. It finds that networks’ program selection incentives have changed in recent years as networks were permitted to take ownership interests in programming. 2 A HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE ON PROGRAM DIVERSITY Mara Einstein Department of Media Studies Queens College City University of New York The views expressed in this paper are those of the author alone and do not necessarily reflect the views of the Federal Communications Commission, any Commissioners, or other staff. 3 Introduction This paper analyzes the correlation between the FCC’s imposition of financial interest and syndication rules and program diversity on prime time broadcast network television. To demonstrate this, diversity will be examined in terms of 1) content diversity (types of programming) and 2) marketplace diversity (suppliers of programming). This analysis suggests that the structural regulation represented by the FCC’s financial interest and syndication rules have not been an effective means of achieving content diversity. Study Methodology By evaluating the content of programming over the periods surrounding the introduction and elimination of the financial interest and syndication rules, we will measure the trend in program diversity during the time when the financial interest and syndication (“fin-syn”) rules were in effect.

SPONS AGENCY National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (DOC), Rockville, Md. National Sea Grant Progri.m. PUB DATE 86 NOTE 13p. PUB TYPE Reports - Descriptive (141) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Attitude Change; Community Education; *Environmental Education; *Exhibits; Experiential Learning; Knowledge Level; *Mobile Educational Services; *Nonschool Educational Programs; *Outreach Programs; Student Attitudes IDENTIFIERS *Informal Education; *Lake Erie ABSTRACT The impact of "The Great Lake Erie," an outreach program that aimed to improve visitor knowledge and attitudes about Lake Erie, is discussed in this evaluative study. "The Great Lake Erie" was presented as a two-part program consisting of a lecture and demonstration stage presentation and a series of exhibits. The program was open to school groups during weekdays and to the general public on weekends and evenings. Visitor behavior at the exhibits was monitored, and the 17 displays were evaluated on their attention-holding ability, knowledge impact, instructional component, accommodation potential, and self-directiveness. The highest rated exhibits tended to be self-directive and highly interactive. To assess knowledge and attitude changes related to the program, a pretest-postest questionnaire was completed by visiting adults and students. Students and adults responded differently to the program. Adults showed significant knowledge gain while students did not. On attitudes, students and adults were positive on the pretest, but only students showed a positive shift on the posttest. Positive feedback was obtained from teachers who participated in the program with their classes.

The Power of TV: Cable Television and Women's Status in India Robert Jensen and Emily Oster NBER Working Paper No. 13305 August 2007 JEL No. J13,J16,O12,O33 ABSTRACT Cable and satellite television have grown rapidly throughout the developing world.
