Titus Andromedon Is the Main Attraction of Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt Author : Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt has proven to be a big hit for Netflix. Going into its third season, Kimmy (Ellie Kemper ) has been the shows main attraction. However, the real fan favorite is Titus Andromedon ( Tituss Burgess ), who always manages the steal the spotlight away from the rest of the cast. We've always know Titus to be very eccentric and outgoing, and that's what people love about him. As a hopeful actor trying to find work, Titus always seems to draw the short stick. His acting talents may never bring him fame and fortune, but yet he still never gives up his goal of becoming a household name. That's a trait that I particularly admire about Titus. While I don't necessarily see myself in him, I do love his drive to come out on top. And while Titus may give up at times, he's always coming right back and continuing his fight. [DanielG] We saw a different Titus in Season 2. After he met Mikey, there seemed to be little pep to his step. Of course, as things got to serious he considered walking away, but he didn't. The relationship with Mikey gave Titus 1 / 2 new hope that he could accomplish his dream of being famous, and Mikey pushed him towards that. At the end of Season 2 we saw Titus make his way to Titusville, Florida. Looking for a sign, he choose not to take an acting gig on a cruise ship. Hopefully, this impromptu trip to Florida gives Titus a little more motivation to not only give up on his acting, but also develop a future with Mikey. We've seen the teaser for Kimmy Schmidt season 3. Titus is front and center, doing a Beyonce impression. This was very reminiscent of his pinot noir performance and music video from season 1. It's obvious he's going to be the same Titus we've grown to love, but will we finally see a less selfish, and caring, Titus Andromedon? Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt releases its third season on May 19th. There are plenty of questions to be answered, especially after last season surprise twist. However, the progression of Titus will be something to keep an eye on all season. He's one of the best characters on the show, and there is no denying that.

Libations: the Sexy Side of Cognac
Love & Libations: The Sexy Side of Cognac B y: Yolanda Shoshana During Valentine’s Day season most people focus on Champagne. That’s totally understandable because it’s one sexy wine. I want to encourage you to try something other than sparkling wine. How about adding Cognac into your libation rotation? It’s that time of year, February, also known as the month of love. Though at Cupid’s Pulse we bring the love year-round. Cognac is produced in a very charming city of the same name in France. French is the language of lovers so think of it as the spirit of “love in a bottle”. For so long people have thought of Cognac as an older man’s drink, but it couldn’t be further from the truth. The spirit has a vibrant history of being the libation of choice by kings, queens, and aristocrats. Now, most people think of rappers when they see Cognac. It’s true than many famous singers/rappers love Cognac. However, it’s also enjoyed by men and women around the world, especially in Japan and the US. Besides being known for luxury, it’s rather seductive. It’s easy to find it as an ingredient in cocktails at fancy hotel bars and even dive bars have gotten into serving classy Cognac drinks. People have caught on to how delightful and versatile Cognac can be. Related Link: Love & Libations: Autumn + Red Wine = Love Ready to get it in?

IRONIC FEMINISM: RHETORICAL CRITIQUE IN SATIRICAL NEWS A Dissertation Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Rhetorics, Communication, and Information Design by Kathy Elrick December 2016 Accepted by Dr. David Blakesley, Committee Chair Dr. Jeff Love Dr. Brandon Turner Dr. Victor J. Vitanza ABSTRACT Ironic Feminism: Rhetorical Critique in Satirical News aims to offer another perspective and style toward feminist theories of public discourse through satire. This study develops a model of ironist feminism to approach limitations of hegemonic language for women and minorities in U.S. public discourse. The model is built upon irony as a mode of perspective, and as a function in language, to ferret out and address political norms in dominant language. In comedy and satire, irony subverts dominant language for a laugh; concepts of irony and its relation to comedy situate the study’s focus on rhetorical contributions in joke telling. How are jokes crafted? Who crafts them? What is the motivation behind crafting them? To expand upon these questions, the study analyzes examples of a select group of popular U.S.

Alexander Pearl∗ Greetings, non-Indian people!1 Once again,2 us tribal people (or “Native Americans” as our politically progressive white defenders demand we be called) must clear the air about the representations of Indians in popular media and mainstream culture.

Abstract When Netflix launched in April 1998, Internet video was in its infancy. Eighteen years later, Netflix has developed into the first truly global Internet TV network. Many books have been written about the five broadcast networks – NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and the CW – and many about the major cable networks – HBO, CNN, MTV, Nickelodeon, just to name a few – and this is the fitting time to undertake a detailed analysis of how Netflix, as the preeminent Internet TV networks, has come to be. This book, then, combines historical, industrial, and textual analysis to investigate, contextualize, and historicize Netflix's development as an Internet TV network. The book is split into four chapters. The first explores the ways in which Netflix's development during its early years a DVD-by-mail company – 1998-2007, a period I am calling "Netflix as Rental Company" – lay the foundations for the company's future iterations and successes. During this period, Netflix adapted DVD distribution to the Internet, revolutionizing the way viewers receive, watch, and choose content, and built a brand reputation on consumer-centric innovation.
