  • The Evolution of the Seven Deadly Sins: from God to the Simpsons
    96 Journal of Popular Culture sin. A lot. As early Christian doctrine repeatedly points out, the seven deadly sins are so deeply rooted in our fallen human nature, that not only are they almost completely unavoidable, but like a proverbial bag of The Evolution of the Seven Deadly Sins: potato chips, we can never seem to limit ourselves to just one. With this ideology, modern society agrees. However, with regard to the individual From God to the Simpsons and social effects of the consequences of these sins, we do not. The deadly sins of seven were identified, revised, and revised again Lisa Frank in the heads and classrooms of reportedly celibate monks as moral and philosophical lessons taught in an effort to arm men and women against I can personally attest that the seven deadly sins are still very much the temptations of sin and vice in the battle for their souls. These teach- with us. Today, I have committed each of them, several more than once, ings were quickly reflected in the literature, theater, art, and music of before my lunch hour even began. Here is my schedule of sin (judge me that time and throughout the centuries to follow.

Every day and every hour, acts of gluttony, 7:00 - I pressed the snooze button three times before dragging myself out of lust, covetousness, envy, pride, wrath, and sloth are portrayed on televi- bed.

    BABYSITTING BANDIT PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Carolyn Keene,Macky Pamintuan | 96 pages | 01 Jan 2010 | SIMON & SCHUSTER | 9781416978138 | English | New York, NY, United States Simpsons Babysitter Bart The episode was first directed by Kent Butterworth. Klasky-Csupo , the animation studio that produced the earlier Simpsons shorts, was in charge of the animation, with one exception. During the years of producing the shorts, everything was created in-house. The producers felt the animation did not exhibit a distinct style envisioned for the show. At the time, there were only a few choices for animation style; usually, animators would follow the styles of Disney , Warner Bros. Disney and Warner Bros. Meanwhile, Hanna-Barbera's style relied on exaggerated sound effects, which they did not want to use either. The producers considered aborting the series if the next episode, " Bart the Genius ", turned out as this episode, but fortunately it turned out to suffer only a few easily-fixed problems. The premiere then switched to " Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire ", which had to be aired in December; being a Christmas special. Directorial retakes were handled by David Silverman , who already had considerable experience directing the shorts. Most of these retakes consisted of changing the backgrounds. The result is an episode where the animation is uneven because it shifts between the early animation and the retakes. The episode featured several early character designs; Moe Szyslak has black hair in this episode, which was later changed to grey, while Barney Gumble has yellow hair, which was later changed to brown in order to differentiate the character's hair color from that of his skin.

  • Introduction: the Simpsons, Satire, and American Culture
    Notes Introduction: The Simpsons, Satire, and American Culture 1. Robert J. Thompson, Television’s Second Golden Age: From Hill Street Blues to ER (New York: Continuum, 1996), 19. 2. “Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire” (#7G08) ranked thirtieth for its timeslot the night it premiered and earned Fox a 22 percent share and a 14.5 rating. See “Nielsens,” USA Today, December 20, 1989, 3D, Lexis-Nexis Academic, October 2, 2003. 3. “Bart the Genius” (#7G02) ranked forty-eighth for its timeslot and earned Fox a 19 percent share and a 12.7 rating. See “Nielsens,” USA Today, January 17, 1990, 3D, Lexis-Nexis Academic, October 2, 2003. 4. Harry F. Waters, “Family Feuds,” Newsweek, April 23, 1990, 58. 5. Although The Simpsons often ranked within the top ten for weekly or monthly Nielsen totals, the show has not ranked high overall: at the end of the 1989–90 season, its first full season on the air, The Simpsons ranked only thirtieth. See “Final Season Ratings,” Electronic Media, April 23, 1990, 36, Lexis-Nexis Academic, October 2, 2003. http:// web.lexis-nexis.com/universe. Curiously, the show has never been among the top 25 in the Nielsen seasonal totals. It is no longer the ratings juggernaut it once was, but new episodes of The Simpsons still rank in the Nielsen top 50 among prime-time television shows and often in the top 20 among shows in syndication.

  • The Simpsons and Philosophy the D'oh! of Homer Popular Culture and Philosophy, Volume 02 Edited by William Irwin, Mark T
    The Simpsons and Philosophy The D'oh! of Homer Popular Culture and Philosophy, Volume 02 Edited by William Irwin, Mark T. Conard, and Aeon J. Skoble a.b.e-book v3.0 / Notes at EOF (Annotations appear at the end of each essay) Back Cover: No less an authority than Homer Simpson himself has declared: "Cartoons don't have any deep meaning. They're just stupid drawings that give you a cheap laugh." Don't have a cow, man. Here comes a squadron of erudite scholars with the guts to challenge even Homer's pessimistic view of his family's historic plight. Does Homer Simpson really exhibit Aristotelian virtues? Can we learn from Maggie about the value of silence? Is Bart the kind of individual Nietzsche was trying to warn us about? How does Lisa illuminate American ambivalence toward intellectuals? Here we can find out about irony and the meaning of life, the politics of the nuclear family, Marxism in Springfield, the elusiveness of happiness, popular parody as a form of tribute, and why we need animated TV shows.
