I bring ​ ​ this series into the discussion because of the ways in which it echos, parallels, and alludes to both Emma and Clueless individually, and the two as a source pair. I do not argue that the series is an ​ ​ ​ actual adaptation, but rather, a sort of collage, recombining motifs from both source texts to create something new, exciting, and completely absurd.

  • GOSSIP GIRL HERE: Your One and Only Source Into the Scandalous Lives of Manhattan’S Elite
    GOSSIP GIRL HERE: your one and only source into the scandalous lives of Manhattan’s elite The sixth episode of the series is now available. GOSSIP GIRL, will return this November for the second part of the first season with six new episodes. Halloween is one of my favorite celebrations: it’s the perfect occasion to pretend to be something different, hiding behind our best mask and only worrying about having a good time.Although what began as a promising - and compromising - friendship between Zoya and a certain Simon, apparently ended in a typical Halloween joke: what appeared to be prince charming turned out to be an impostor who was only trying to discover who is behind the Manhattan elite’s best gossip. Beware of those who approach you, Z! This time you were lucky, but nothing guarantees that there aren’t more masked people around you.And although we thought that Constance Billard's most well-known sisters would get all the attention at the "Legends of New York" costume party, apparently they have considerable competition: Pippa and Bianca, managed to ally with Monet to steal the throne from JC and Z but ... will they achieve their goal?Who definitely didn’t achieve his goal during these past few days was Aki, who despite his insistence on getting Max out of Rafa's clutches, can’t seem to reason with his friend. How far can that forbidden and oh so problematic crush go?However, if anyone is in trouble right now, it's Audrey. Some sources have told us that our poor almost-perfect blonde friend is about to leave Constance Billard at her mother's behest… Ah, family drama, an everyday thing on the Upper East Side! However, that may be the least of her problems at the moment… We hope Max and Aki will smooth things over and give our girl some support.

  • We Are All Gossip Girl”: Gossip Girl and the Promise of Interactive Television
    PREVIOUSLY ON “We are all Gossip Girl”: Gossip Girl and the Promise of Interactive Television Elisa Lange In November 2010, Current TV, a cable network founded by former Vice President Al Gore, has started airing a 30 minute TV series called Bar Karma, which is created in online collaboration with fans and is thus a new step to truly participatory and interactive TV. On a website users can pitch storylines, comment on submitted entries, talk to the producers, and contribute marketing ideas. The show is co-produced by SimCity creator Will Wright and features well-known actors like William Sanderson (http://current.com/studios/about/). Of course, there is no guarantee that the fans’ story idea will find its way into the actual show since the producers and writers still hold the power to decide how and if a pitch is worked into the final product. Still, this project allows viewer to have more than an imaginary control over the televised narrative even if the project’s success still remains to be seen. Still, interactivity rarely plays out on the primary level of the TV program itself, but more commonly on the secondary level and tertiary level of the televisual text, that is network created websites that allow some contributions from fans and unregulated communications between fans (Fiske, 1983: 85). Interactivity within the TV landscape is often associated with the viewers’ ability to turn from passive consumers into active producers of content that “adds” to the televised narrative but does not change it (Hassapopoulou, 2010: 48). This distinction usually does not to take into account that even when viewers are passively sitting on their couch watching soap operas, their minds are still actively engaged in making sense of the narratives and relationships.

Popular Gossip Girl character Jenny Humphrey never goes looking for trouble; but trouble always seems to find her. What Waverly Academy mischief will Jenny, Tinsley, and Callie stir up now?Its January, and a new semester at Waverly Academy means one thing: new students. Make that hot new students. A gorgeous brother-sister pair is taking Waverly by storm, and the campus is abuzz with fresh gossip and even fresher crushes. But while all the girls are busy drooling over the new it-guy, theyd better watch their backs-because his sister is going to give them all a run for their money. After all, there can only be one It Girl... These books are already getting tired, hence the need to bring on two new characters. These books used to be fun, but now they are just annoying. Callie is a horrible person, yet we are supposed to think she is cool and fun and relate to her. She is selfish, using Brandon, messing up his good relationship with a girl who finally appreciates him, then dumps him because her last boyfriend she dumped comes back, and she wants him yet again.The other thing that irritates me about this book is the way the guys are treated.

Departments of English and Psychology, June 2011. ADVISORS: Professors Judith Lewin, Claire Bracken, Suzanne Benack This thesis discusses ―chick-lit‖ series in relation to popular culture, adolescent development, and feminist theory. The role of the female in the United States is currently dominated by both neo-liberal and conservative postfeminist ideology. Postfeminism advocates female empowerment via consumption, sexual attractiveness and physical beauty, while at the same time valorizing passive femininity and the roles of wife and mother.
