  • Watching Television with Friends: Tween Girls' Inclusion Of
    WATCHING TELEVISION WITH FRIENDS: TWEEN GIRLS’ INCLUSION OF TELEVISUAL MATERIAL IN FRIENDSHIP by CYNTHIA MICHIELLE MAURER A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-Camden Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Childhood Studies written under the direction of Daniel Thomas Cook and approved by ______________________________ Daniel T. Cook ______________________________ Anna Beresin ______________________________ Todd Wolfson Camden, New Jersey May 2016 ABSTRACT Watching Television with Friends: Tween Girls’ Inclusion of Televisual Material in Friendship By CYNTHIA MICHIELLE MAURER Dissertation Director: Daniel Thomas Cook This qualitative work examines the role of tween live-action television shows in the friendships of four tween girls, providing insight into the use of televisual material in peer interactions. Over the course of one year and with the use of a video camera, I recorded, observed, hung out and watched television with the girls in the informal setting of a friend’s house. I found that friendship informs and filters understandings and use of tween television in daily conversations with friends. Using Erving Goffman’s theory of facework as a starting point, I introduce a new theoretical framework called friendship work to locate, examine, and understand how friendship is enacted on a granular level. Friendship work considers how an individual positions herself for her own needs before acknowledging the needs of her friends, and is concerned with both emotive effort and social impact. Through group television viewings, participation in television themed games, and the creation of webisodes, the girls strengthen, maintain, and diminish previously established bonds.

  • By Jennifer M. Fogel a Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy
    A MODERN FAMILY: THE PERFORMANCE OF “FAMILY” AND FAMILIALISM IN CONTEMPORARY TELEVISION SERIES by Jennifer M. Fogel A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Communication) in The University of Michigan 2012 Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Amanda D. Lotz, Chair Professor Susan J. Douglas Professor Regina Morantz-Sanchez Associate Professor Bambi L. Haggins, Arizona State University © Jennifer M. Fogel 2012 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I owe my deepest gratitude to the members of my dissertation committee – Dr. Susan J. Douglas, Dr. Bambi L. Haggins, and Dr. Regina Morantz-Sanchez, who each contributed their time, expertise, encouragement, and comments throughout this entire process. These women who have mentored and guided me for a number of years have my utmost respect for the work they continue to contribute to our field. I owe my deepest gratitude to my advisor Dr. Amanda D. Lotz, who patiently refused to accept anything but my best work, motivated me to be a better teacher and academic, praised my successes, and will forever remain a friend and mentor. Without her constructive criticism, brainstorming sessions, and matching appreciation for good television, I would have been lost to the wolves of academia. One does not make a journey like this alone, and it would be remiss of me not to express my humble thanks to my parents and sister, without whom seven long and lonely years would not have passed by so quickly. They were both my inspiration and staunchest supporters. Without their tireless encouragement, laughter, and nurturing this dissertation would not have been possible.

  • Incendo Starts Shooting “THICKER THAN WATER”
    NEWS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE PUBLICATION Incendo starts shooting “THICKER THAN WATER” Montreal, September 4th, 2018 – Incendo is pleased to announce the commencement of principal photography for THICKER THAN WATER, shot on location in Montreal, starring Canadian actress Andrea Roth (Evidence of Truth; Rescue Me). The movie also co-stars Eric Osborne (Degrassi: Next class; Pyewacket;), Katie Douglas (Mary Kills People; Every Day; Spooksville) and award-winning actor Tygh Runyan (Versailles; 15 minutes; Forget & Forgive). THICKER THAN WATER is directed by Caroline Labrèche and written by David Elver and Andrea Stevens. “Our audiences have come to appreciate our high level of casting and our superior quality films. The cast and the crew of THICKER THAN WATER are no exception” says Jean Bureau, President & CEO of Incendo THICKER THAN WATER: It has been a year since Paige and Nathan Petrovic tragically lost their teenage son Zach to an overdose. Nathan and daughter Addie have slowly been putting their lives back together. Paige, however, just can’t seem to let go. She is still consumed by grief, withdrawn, and unable to work. In order to supplement Paige’s lost income, the family decides to rent out their spare bedroom. Surprisingly, life starts to look up for Paige once their charming new tenant, Brandon, enters the picture. A student at the local university, Brandon eerily resembles everything that Zach stood for in the family, and he brings Paige out of her shell. At first, Nathan and Addie are thrilled to see Paige acting more like her old self, but as Brandon insinuates himself further into the family, they start to see a darker, and more dangerous side to their tenant.

Much of the extant research on predicting feedback-seeking behavior of employees relates to job-oriented variables such as motives, goal orientation, attitudes toward feedback, role ambiguity, and the source of the feedback. The present study incorporated yet unstudied, important variables from the Social Psychology literature which could impact feedback- seeking behaviors in the workplace: an employee’s level of both explicit and

  • Reading Gays on the Small Screen: a Reception Study Among Flemish
    READING GAYS ON THE SMALL SCREEN A RECEPTION STUDY AMONG FLEMISH VIEWERS OF QUEER RESISTANCE IN CONTEMPORARY TELEVISION FICTION FREDERIK DHAENENS 72 - Abstract Drawing on the insights of queer theory, this study Frederik Dhaenens is a departs from the notion that popular culture can articulate member of the Centre for resistance to the discourse of heteronormativity, which Cinema and Media Studies is being reiterated and consolidated in popular culture at the Department of products. In particular, this study focuses on the potential Communication Studies, of gay representation in contemporary television fi ction to Ghent University; e-mail: resist heteronormative institutions, practices, norms, and [email protected]. values. In preceding qualitative textual studies on queer resistance in a selection of popular series (namely The Wire, Family Guy, Six Feet Under, Brothers & Sisters, Torchwood and Vol.19 (2012), No. 4, pp. 57 4, pp. (2012), No. Vol.19 True Blood), it is argued that these series represent gay characters and themes that expose the oppressive prac- tices of heteronormativity and represent viable alternatives to the heteronormative way of living. As articulations of resistance only become resistant in the act of reading, this study aims to explore how television audiences negotiate the meaning of gay representation and its potential to resist. Its aim is twofold: First, it aims to study how Flem- ish regular television viewers of contemporary television fi ction read gay representation and, in particular, how they read articulations of queer resistance. Second, it aims to in- quire whether or not the television viewers assume hetero- normative or resistant discursive positions in their readings.
