  • An Analysis of Hegemonic Social Structures in "Friends"
    "I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU" IF YOU ARE JUST LIKE ME: AN ANALYSIS OF HEGEMONIC SOCIAL STRUCTURES IN "FRIENDS" Lisa Marie Marshall A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2007 Committee: Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor Audrey E. Ellenwood Graduate Faculty Representative James C. Foust Lynda Dee Dixon © 2007 Lisa Marshall All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze the dominant ideologies and hegemonic social constructs the television series Friends communicates in regard to friendship practices, gender roles, racial representations, and social class in order to suggest relationships between the series and social patterns in the broader culture. This dissertation describes the importance of studying television content and its relationship to media culture and social influence. The analysis included a quantitative content analysis of friendship maintenance, and a qualitative textual analysis of alternative families, gender, race, and class representations. The analysis found the characters displayed actions of selectivity, only accepting a small group of friends in their social circle based on friendship, gender, race, and social class distinctions as the six characters formed a culture that no one else was allowed to enter. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project stems from countless years of watching and appreciating television. When I was in college, a good friend told me about a series that featured six young people who discussed their lives over countless cups of coffee. Even though the series was in its seventh year at the time, I did not start to watch the show until that season.

  • 8 TV Power Games: Friends and Law & Order
    8 TV Power Games: Friends and Law & Order There is no such thing as a one-man show | at least not in television: one feature that all TV shows have in common is the combination of a large number of diverse contributors: producers, scriptwriters, actors, and so on. This is illustrated in Exhibit 8.1, which depicts the links between key contributors to the making and selling of a TV show. Solid lines repre- sent some form of contractual relationship, whereas dashed lines represent non-contractual relationships of relevance for value creation and value distribution. As is the case with movies, pharmaceutical drugs, and other products, the distribution of TV show values is very skewed: many TV shows are worth relatively little, whereas a few shows generate a very high value: For example, at its peak Emmy Award-winning drama ER fetched $13 million per episode.1 How does the value created by successful shows get divided among its various contrib- utors, in particular actors, producers and networks? Who gets the biggest slice of the big pie? In this chapter, I address this question by looking at two opposite extreme cases in terms of relative negotiation power: Law & Order and Friends. Law & Order | and profits The legal drama series Law & Order was first broadcast on NBC on September 13, 1990. (The pilot episode, produced in 1988, was intended for CBS, but the network rejected it, just as Fox did later, in both cases because the show did not feature any \breakout" characters.) By the time the last show aired on May 24, 2010, it was the longest-running crime drama on American prime time TV.

  • Friends: an Investigation of Television in Modern Capitalism
    Global Humanities HIB-F-2016 Autumn Semester Roskilde University 2017 Number of Characters: 97795 Friends: An Investigation of Television in Modern Capitalism Authors: 61157 Adam Bahloul 60180 Aileen Wrobble 60203 Lavinia-Georgiana Chifan 61302 Lucas Cordeiro Yoshida 60169 Galatea Bellugi Abstract This paper explores the pilot episode of the sitcom ‘Friends’. It investigates the images, narratives and underlying messages and puts them in relation to the critical theory of popular culture, which entails that art in modern capitalism is commodified. In this mode, art and culture start to resemble and reproduce society and the current social regime instead of exposing alternative realities and worldviews. The investigation concludes that the show, through humor, clichés, stereotypes, symbols and other features, imposes the various ideals and messages of reality and society, which perpetuates and reinforces the familiar worldview of the audience. I dette projekt udforskes den første episode af sitcom-serien 'Venner'. Den undersøger billeder, fortællinger og underliggende meddelelser og sætter dem i forhold til den kritiske teori om populærkultur, hvilket indebærer, at kunst i moderne kapitalisme er en vare som skal sælges. I denne tilstand begynder kunst og kultur at efterligne og reproducere samfundet og den nuværende sociale ordning frem for at fremstille alternative realiteter og verdensbilleder. Undersøgelsen konkluderer, at showet gennem humor, klichéer, stereotyper, symboler og andre træk formidler de forskellige idealer og budskaber

  • Are There Gender Differences in the Use of Questions in the Sitcom Friends?
    Are there gender differences in the use of questions in the sitcom Friends? A case study of four episodes from 1994 and 2004 _____________________________________________________ Finns det genusskillnader i användandet av frågor i tv-serien Vänner? En fallstudie av fyra avsnitt från 1994 och 2004. Elin Jansson Faculty of Arts and Education: ISLI Subject: English English III: Degree project Credits: 15 Supervisor: Solveig Granath Examiner: Marie Tåqvist Term and year: Autumn 2017 Title: Are there gender differences in the use of questions in the sitcom Friends?: A case study of four episodes from 1994 and 2004 Titel på svenska: Finns det genusskillnader i användandet av frågor i tv-serien Vänner?: En fallstudie av fyra avsnitt från 1994 och 2004 Author: Elin Jansson Pages: 30 Abstract The main aim of this paper was to identify the form and function of questions used by the three female and three male characters in the sitcom Friends, in order to see whether there were any gender differences in the use of questions. Another aim was to see whether gender roles remain static over time in the series, from 1994 to 2004. Four episodes in total were used, two episodes from the first season and two from the last. The results clearly showed that the male characters asked more questions than the female characters which was the opposite of what research suggested. Out of the four main functions of questions (external questions, talk-questions, relational questions and expressive style questions), the male characters used the external and expressive style the most. This reflects what research says about men using questions more to show power and domination in conversations.

  • Food Consumption and Gender Violence in Diana Evans’S 26A and Han Kang’S the Vegetarian 1
    STARVING SPIRITS: FOOD CONSUMPTION AND GENDER VIOLENCE IN DIANA EVANS’S 26A AND HAN KANG’S THE VEGETARIAN 1 Rosa Moreno Redondo2 English title: Starving Spirits: Food Practices and Gender Violence in Diana Evans’s 26a and Han Kang’s The Vegetarian Abstract: This article examines the conflicts experienced by the protagonists of 26a (2005) by British-Nigerian Diana Evans and The Vegetarian (2007) by South Korean Han Kang, which are related to patriarchal violence and reflected in their changing dietary habits, ranging from vegetarianism to starvation. Their changes in food practices are interpreted from feminist, food studies, and ecocritical perspectives as stemming from their rebellion against patriarchal abuse and sharing important connections with the natural world, also a traditional object of male dominance and domestication, which are emphasised through frequent references to trees, flowers and fruit. Key Words: Vegetarianism, starvation, female identity, patriarchal violence, ecocriticism, nature. Título en Español: Espíritus hambrientos: prácticas alimentarias y violencia de género en 26a de Diana Evans y The Vegetarian de Han Kang Resumen: Este artículo examina los conflictos que experimentan las protagonistas de 26a (2005) de la nigeriano-británica Diana Evans y The Vegetarian (2007) de la surcoreana Han Kang y que se relacionan con la violencia patriarcal y se reflejan en sus cambios de hábitos alimenticios, desde el vegetarianismo hasta la inanición. Sus cambios en las prácticas alimentarias se interpretan desde perspectivas feministas, de estudios de la comida y de la ecocrítica y surgen de su rebelión frente al abuso patriarcal, compartiendo conexiones importantes con el mundo natural, que también es un objeto tradicional de dominio masculino y domesticación, que se enfatizan a través de frecuentes referencias a árboles, flores y fruta.

From a homosexual couple raising an adopted child (Modern Family, ABC, 2009-) to recovering alcoholic single mothers (Mom, CBS, 2013-) to a divorced father negotiating his gender transition with his adult children (Transparent, Amazon, 2014-), these representations are in the process of interrogating what it means to be (and who is allowed to be) a parent.

  • I Will Be There for You: Six Friends in a Clique∗
    I will be there for you: six friends in a clique∗ Ana L. C. Bazzan Computer Science Institute, UFRGS 91501-970 – P. Alegre, Brazil [email protected] Abstract Network science has proved useful in analyzing structure and dynamics of so- cial networks in several areas. This paper aims at analyzing the relationships of characters in Friends, a famous sitcom. In particular, two important aspects are in- vestigated. First, how are the structure of the communities (groups)? How different methods for community detection perform? Second, not only static structure of the graphs and causality relationships are investigated, but also temporal aspects. After all, this show was aired for ten years and thus plots, roles, and friendship patterns among the characters seem to have changed. Also, this sitcom is frequently asso- ciated with distinguishing facts such as: all six characters are equally prominent; it has no dominant storyline; and friendship as surrogate family. This paper uses tools from network theory to check whether these and other facts can be quantified and proved correct, especially considering the temporal aspect, i.e., what happens in the sitcom along time. The main findings regarding the centrality and tempo- ral aspects are: patterns in graphs representing different time slices of the show change; overall, degrees of the six friends are indeed nearly the same; however, in different situations (thus graphs), the magnitudes of degree centrality do change; betweenness centrality differs significantly for each character thus some characters are better connectors than others; there is a high difference regarding degrees of the six friends versus the rest of the characters, which points to a centralized network; arXiv:1804.04408v3 [cs.SI] 11 Dec 2019 there are strong indications that the six friends are part of a surrogate family.
