Burrows Submitted in fulfillment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Media and Cultural Studies at the University of Sussex, May 2014 3 University of Sussex Karen K. Burrows Escaping the Honeytrap: Representations and Ramifications of the Female Spy on Television Since 1965 Summary My thesis interrogates the changing nature of the espionage genre on Western television since the middle of the Cold War. It uses close textual analysis to read the progressions and regressions in the portrayal of the female spy, analyzing where her representation aligns with the achievements of the feminist movement, where it aligns with popular political culture of the time, and what happens when the two factors diverge. I ask what the female spy represents across the decades and why her image is integral to understanding the portrayal of gender on television. I explore four pairs of television shows from various eras to demonstrate the importance of the female spy to the cultural landscape.

  • The Avengers (1998) Directed by Jeremiah S
    They Never Shut Up About Tea, Either By Fearless Young Orphan The Avengers (1998) Directed by Jeremiah S. Chechik I don’t think I’d get much argument that The Avengers is an awful movie. It’s quite a colorful catastrophe. But I can’t bring myself to detest it, or even dislike it really. Of my many Chunks experiences, this is an unusual one, where I got the distinct feeling that we were about two steps away from a really good film. Failure when there was such obvious potential is more disappointing than failure when there’s nothing to work with. And of course, The Avengers is so ostentatious and ridiculous that you can’t even pretend to ignore its drastic missteps. As a contrast, the movie Places in the Heart is a fine film that touched me deeply, but it commits a rather elementary plotting error that lessens its overall worth. Yet, because it is a quiet drama, which purposely eschews any flash in favor of fine acting and a strong human message, one can get to the end of the film and only remember the quality. That trick doesn’t work with something as boisterous as The Avengers. The Avengers is based on the extremely popular 1960s British television series by the same name, which many of us came to love in syndication. If you haven’t been exposed to the television program, most of what the movie is trying to do will be completely lost on you. But to summarize it quick-and-dirty, The Avengers was a rather silly show of skilled secret agents keeping England safe against egomaniacal supervillains with science-fictiony doomsday devices (something like The Prisoner in tone, but not as paranoid).
