  • Ll Be Your Huckleberry
    I’ll Be Your Huckleberry It is amazing what will spark a memory. I was transferring a client’s film today and the Christmas scene that appeared on the screen was of a young boy who had just received an inflatable punching bag in the image of Huckleberry Hound. I had one of those. And I certainly remember Hanna-Barbera’s Huckleberry Hound being a favorite cartoon when I was growing up. But my memory played a trick on me. I would have sworn that the Huckleberry Hound Show that I watched as a youngster consisted of three segments: Huckleberry himself; Yogi Bear and Boo-Boo (whose segment eventually became more popular than those of the titular star); and (I thought) Quick Draw McGraw with his sidekick “bing bing bing” Ricochet Rabbit. But I was wrong. Quick Draw had his own show. The third segment for Huck, as he is familiarly known to his young fans, involved a pair of mice, Pixie and Dixie, and the object of their abuse, the cat Mr. Jinx. Just goes to show how memories can tend to distort and blend together over time. A few trivia tidbits about this cartoon from my past: Huckleberry Hound debuted in 1958 and featured a slow moving, slow talking blue dog who held a multitude of jobs and always seemed to succeed due to either luck or an obstinate persistence. Huck was voiced by Daws Butler who also provided the voices for Wally Gator, Yogi Bear, Quick Draw McGraw, and Snagglepuss. Daws Butler fashioned the voice of Yogi Bear after Art Carney’s portrayal of Ed Norton in The Honeymooners.

Dwyer has called “pop nostalgia,” a set of critical affective responses to representations of previous eras used to remake the present or to imagine corrective alternatives to it. Longings for the Fifties, Dwyer observes, were especially key to America’s self-fashioning during the Reagan era (2015). Moving from these premises, I turn to anachronisms, aesthetic resonances, and intertextual references that point to, as Mark Fisher would have it, both a lost past and lost futures (Fisher 2014, 2-29) in the episodes of the Hanna-Barbera animated series The Jetsons produced for syndication between 1985 and 1987. A product of Cold War discourse and the early days of the Space Age, the series is characterized by a bidirectional rhetoric: if its setting emphasizes the empowering and alienating effects of technological advancement, its characters and its retrofuture aesthetics root the show in a recognizable and desirable all-American past.

Wayne State University Press. Paperback. Book Condition: new. BRAND NEW, The Honeymooners, David Sterritt, This title examines the cultural, historical, and artistic significance of the Honeymooners in the context of postwar American values. "The Honeymooners" chronicles the lives of New York City bus driver Ralph Kramden and his wife, Alice, as they search for domestic happiness inside a confining Brooklyn apartment. As a stand- alone television program, it ran for just thirty-nine weeks from 1955 to 1956, but its characters appeared in long-running sketches on Calvalcade of Stars and The Jackie Gleason Show and the program has lived on for generations in reruns and home video releases. David Sterritt investigates "The Honeymooners" as an enduring and valuable index of societal norms and televisual tastes in the 1950s - a project made all the more intriguing by the diverse ways in which "The Honeymooners" both reairms and diverges from the typical broadcast idioms of its day. With chapter headings borrowed from Honeymooners episode titles, this volume considers the program's cultural, historical, and artistic dimensions in connection with the values of postwar America at large.

    Butsch, Richard. « A Half Century of Class and Gender in American TV Domestic Sitcoms », Cercles 8 (2003) : 16-34 <www.cercles.com>. ©Cercles 2003. Toute reproduction, même partielle, par quelque procédé que ce soit, est interdite sans autorisation préalable (loi du 11 mars 1957, al. 1 de l’art. 40). ISSN : 1292-8968. Richard Butsch Rider University, Lawrenceville A HALF CENTURY OF CLASS AND GENDER in American TV Domestic Sitcoms Over a half-century of television, domestic situation comedies have reinforced images of the middle class as better than the working class. Similar inequalities have been portrayed for men versus women, black versus white, old versus young, and for other status hierarchies. Already embedded in the larger culture, these stereotypes are used to signify character types that advance dramatic goals. Nevertheless, the pervasiveness of network tele- vision and the persistence over five decades have contributed immeasurably to reproducing these same stereotypes. Women, for example, have been cast as main characters only where the subjects of romance or family are salient; they have been absent from rational discussions in scripts [Gerbner, 1972]. Women’s presence thus signals certain themes. Similarly, traits culturally associated with a lower status, applied to a person of higher status devalues that person. Men are devalued by characte- rizing them as feminine. Such status inversion can then effectively confirm other lower statuses held by the person. Female, black and lower-class adults have been devalued by characterizing them as child-like. Child-like attribu- tions undercut their adult status, confirming their lower status as female, black or lower-class.

COURSE DESCRIPTION Despite its pivotal role in postwar America, television has rarely been viewed as a medium worthy of serious critical attention. Long tainted by its commercial ties and mass audience, television has only recently acquired a degree of cultural esteem through its widely acclaimed cable programming (The Sopranos; Mad Men). This course will provide an introduction to the historical development, forms, and reception of television in the U.S., paying particular attention to the social element of the medium. We will thus explore television’s diverse audiences and analyze the various ways in which American culture has both shaped and been shaped by TV. In addition to a focus on key moments in the medium’s history, we will examine the distinctive elements of the televisual form (flow, liveness, seriality, advertising), TV’s key genres (soap, sitcom, drama, news, reality), modes of reception (fandom, distraction, time-shifting), and television’s construction and conception of social difference in America (representation and narrowcasting strategies). Key topics of discussion will include: quality television and cultural hierarchies, HBO and the cable/satellite shift, teen TV, children’s TV, representing “reality,” the gendering of television, televisual immediacy, and the flexibility of “television” in the digital era.

A A mainstay of Saturday morning children’s programming, small snippets of it appear regularly in commercials,TVCrit.com credit sequences, music videos, news and sports, but there have been long stretches when there were no prime-time cartoon shows. After The Flintstones ended its original run in 1966 there wasn’t another successful prime-time show until 23 years later, when The Simpsons debuted. Since 1989 there has been something of a Renaissance in television animation. Numerous prime-time cartoon pro- grams have appeared and at least three cable channels have arisen that fea- ture cartoons—the Cartoon Network, Nickleodeon, and Toon Disney. And, of course, cartoons continue to dominate the TV ghettos of Saturday morn- ing and weekday afternoons.

  • 2018-The-Honeymooner
    PRODUCTION HISTORY The Honeymooners was a television sitcom in the mid-1950s that to this day is one of the most memorable half hour situation comedies of all time. It started out as a six-minute sketch on comedian Jackie Gleason’s 1951 variety show Cavalcade of Stars. He continued performing these skits when the Cavalcade was renamed as The Jackie Gleason Show in 1952. At the time, he got tired of creating an hour-long variety show and he went on to create two 30-minute shows simultaneously: The Honeymooners and Stage Show, a variety show dedicated to music. The show followed an everyman bus driver named Ralph Kramden and his sarcastic wife Alice (Audrey Meadows) who often comes to his rescue. Ralph also has his best friend Ed Norton, portrayed by Art Carney and his wife Trixie, played by Joyce Randolph. It was one of the first comedies on television to portray a normal married couple that is struggling to get by. Most of the action takes place in the kitchen of their Brooklyn apartment. There are many elements that made The Honeymooners unique in its time and remembered for over sixty years following its conclusion. One was that the show was filmed live in front of a 1,000-member audience at the former Adelphi Theatre in New York City and broadcast at a later date. Gleason hated to rehearse so for many episodes they would only run through a script one time before performing it in front of the live audience. The other cast members would rehearse diligently without him, as they were not comfortable with this arrangement.

Fox. The shows they wrote for included “The Honeymooners,” ‘The Phil Silvers Show,” “The Red Skelton Hour,” Bob Hope specials, “Here’s Lucy,” “All in the Family,” and “Maude.” These five writers were working in the earliest days of the medium and spent years writing for the personalities—from performers to producers—who pioneered and defined it. Most of them also wrote scripts during one of broadcast television’s greatest periods of transformation, when comedy took a decidedly topical turn that continued to have a significant impact on television comedy in the decades that followed. iii Table of Contents Introduction ……………………………..….……………….……..……1 Chapter One: Sydney Zelinka ……………………………....…..….…..15 Chapter Two: Larry Rhine ……………………………………......……32 Chapter Three: Milt Josefsberg ……………………...…….…...…....…58 Chapter Four: Seaman Jacobs and Fred S.

    Etched in Stone Journalistic Portrayals and the Prevalence of Media in a Town Called Bedrock Chris W. Pisar Etched in Stone: Journalistic Portrayals and the Prevalence of Media in a Town Called Bedrock Pisar 2 Abstract This article examines the animated, primetime comedy The Flintstones and how its portrayal of the news media affects the way people, especially children, view journalists. The research will focus on the portrayals of journalists throughout the show’s run. This article also will look at the prevalence of the media, such as newspapers, radio, and television, in the series and how this affects how people think the media function in the real world. With television consumption at an all-time high (the average American watches four hours of television a day)1, the residual effects of the way the media and journalists are portrayed on television, including cartoons, becomes increasingly important. By understanding the way journalists are portrayed in cartoons, we can better understand the longtime impact on children, the primary target audience of The Flintstones. I hypothesize that the way the news media are portrayed and the prevalence of the media in the series affect the way audiences view the media and journalists in reality. Introduction Television was introduced in the United States back in the 1930s, but it wasn’t until 1948-49 that “the explosion of sets into the American marketplace” took place.2 The typical household had one set and used television as a family activity.3 Now, two-thirds of the nation’s population has three or more TV sets in their home.4 This has caused watching television to become an isolated activity rather than a family activity like it had been in the past.
