WEITEKAMP Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum 'We're physicists': Genderl genre and the image of scientists in The Big Bang Theory ABSTRACT KEYWORDS As a comedy, the popuLar CBS teLevision shaw The Big Bang Theory (2007-) has scientists made an internationaL commerciaL success of its portrayaL of scientists, complete situation comedy with equation-Laden white boards and an affectionate depiction of nerd cuLture. nerdlgeek stereotype Working both with and against the gendered stereotypes of the nerd and the mad history of science scientist - and drawing upon many of the core characteristics of situation comedy genre as a genre - The Big Bang Theory offers a sympathetic and nuanced depiction gender of scientists, including a more diverse group of scientists by gender, ethnicity, and scientific subfieLds than usually seen in either television or movies. Contemplating a heavy, oversized box that needed to be moved up several flights of stairs, the lead characters in the popular CBS television show The Big Bang Theory (2007-) established in its second episode how deeply their identity as scientists imbued everything they did. Eager to impress the pretty girl across the haJJ by fetching the box for her, Leonard Hoftstadter (portrayed by Johnny Galecki) appealed to his apartment-mate, Sheldon Cooper (Jim Parsons), by caJJing on their shared vocation.

IN FOCUS: Feminism and Fandom Revisited Fan Labor and Feminism
IN FOCUS: Feminism and Fandom Revisited Fan Labor and Feminism: Capitalizing on the Fannish Labor of Love by KRISTINA BUSSE, editor n the early 2000s, my three-year-old son wanted a Doctor Who birth- day party. He had been watching old 1980s-era PBS recordings on our VHS, and he couldn’t understand why the party stores didn’t have the Fourth Doctor next to Buzz Lightyear and Arthur para- phernalia. Now, ten years later, when I research fannish cakes, I fi nd Ientire commercial cooking programs dedicated to baking a TARDIS- shaped cake, along with Doctor Who party- and bakeware. One reason for this change is clearly the resurgence of the Doctor Who franchise (BBC, 1963–1989, 1996, 2005–) and its wider popularity than before. Clearly, this amount of fan merchandise for even marginal shows is a recent phenomenon, testifying to both the expansion of media tie- in commercialization and the increased popularity of fan and geek cultures. Twenty years ago, our Doctor Who mugs were a special PBS fund-raising gift; today, there is merchandise available not only for the most niche shows but also for specifi c fans: if you want a T-shirt, tote bag, or iPhone case dedicated to Superwholock (the slashy Doctor Who / Supernatural / Sherlock crossover of “Hunters and Doctors and Boys from Baker Street”), there are dozens of designs and options available on sites that cater directly to this audience. As an aca-fan, I am of two minds about this phenomenon. The ac- ceptance of fans, geeks, and nerds is theoretically and personally satis- fying, as is the increased popularity of geeky media, and consequently the more positive media portrayals.

FANBOYS, FANGIRLS, and GEEKS PANEL Dating Amy Farrah Fowler
Selected Papers of Internet Research 16: The 16th Annual Meeting of the Association of Internet Researchers Phoenix, AZ, USA / 21-24 October 2015 FANBOYS, FANGIRLS, AND GEEKS PANEL This panel examines the contentious and developing nature of fandom in 21st century media. Within the theme of this year’s conference this panel will examine how fandoms reimagine their relationship to the author generated texts and towards one another as a community. Given that fandom is often viewed as a cohesive and joined community, the authors seek to understand the cracks and faults within this idealized concept. By looking at these areas the panel will examine how the view of a homogenized community of fans falls apart. The papers on the panel express a particular interest in the contentious nature of fandom infighting and its relationship to the broader media field. It covers a broad view of different fandom communities, from video games to Supernatural, and will discuss often marginalized or challenged viewpoints and engage in discussions of the relationship between fan, media, and creator. Dating Amy Farrah Fowler: Essentializing Femininity and Othering Women in STEM Bridget M. Blodgett University of Baltimore Amy Farrah Fowler is one of the standout female characters of The Big Bang Theory. Amy is a dedicated neuroscientist and is often characterized as being the female equivalent to Sheldon’s presentation of male geekiness. She is an interesting character for illustrating the problems that women’s representation in geek media. Amy is often portrayed as being as smart as Sheldon in an area that is just as hard a science.

For my thesis, I explored the shipper paradigm and the differences between network sitcoms and crime procedurals by creating one spec script The Big Bang Theory and another for Bones.

On the Night of October 14Th, Incredibly Smart Scientists Had Gathered for an Intense Game of Dungeons and Dragons
/ , Cy-Falls Science Olympiad 2016 Foreqsic Science Competition lnformation Packet Scenario: On the night of October 14th, incredibly smart scientists had gathered for an intense game of dungeons and dragons. The friends gathered included Sheldon Cooper, Leonard Hofstadter, Howard Wolowitz, and Rajesh Koothrappali. Allof these individuals have a PHD except Howard. On this night these friends had also convinced their wives/girlfriend to attend and participate in the evening's festivities; Penny, Bernadette, and Amy Farrah Fowler. While they played they ate take out from their favorite Chinese restaurant. After everyone retired for the night and Sheldon was sleeping on his new star wars sheets, someone entered the apartment of Sheldon Cooper and Leonard Hofstadter. Once inside, this perpetrator erased the complicated formutas Sheldon had prepared for his new ideas about string theory. They also poured a blue liquid substance on "sheldon's spot" on the Sheldon Cooper tan couch in his living room. Everyone knows how much Sheldon loves that spot. "The Victim" After securing the apartment including forcing Leonard out of his room in the middle of the night to go to Penny's apartment, Sheldon began to collect the evidence. Five Right Thumb Print (evidence A-E) were found on the window seal leading into the apartment. Another fingerprint (Evidence F) was found on the window latch on the inside of the apartment. Sheldon's current theory is that someone at the dungeons and dragons game, unlocked the window so they could re-enter the apartment from the outside fire escape. Two other sets of prints (evidence G and H) were found on the edge of the whiteboard eraser.
