  • “Impact Winter” Guest: Ben Murray [Intro Music] JOSH: Hello, You're Listening to the West Wing
    The West Wing Weekly 6.09: “Impact Winter” Guest: Ben Murray [Intro Music] JOSH: Hello, you’re listening to The West Wing Weekly. I’m Joshua Malina. HRISHI: And I’m Hrishikesh Hirway. Today, we’re talking about Season 6 Episode 9. It’s called “Impact Winter”. JOSH: This episode was written by Debora Cahn. This episode was directed by Lesli Linka Glatter. This episode first aired on December 15th, 2004. HRISHI: Two episodes ago, in episode 6:07, the title was “A Change is Gonna Come,” and I think in this episode the changes arrive. JOSH: Aaaahhh. HRISHI: The President goes to China, but he is severely impaired by his MS. Charlie pushes C.J. to consider her next step after she steps out of the White House, and Josh considers his next step after it turns out Donna has already considered what her next step will be. JOSH: Indeed. HRISHI: Later in this episode we’re going to be joined by Ben Murray who made his debut on The West Wing in the last episode. He plays Curtis, the president’s new personal assistant to replace Charlie. JOSH: A man who has held Martin Sheen in his arms. I mean, I’ve done that off camera, but he did it on television. HRISHI: [Laughs] Little do our listeners know that Martin Sheen insists on being carried everywhere. JOSH: That’s right. I was amazed all these years later when Martin showed up for his interview with us that Ben was carrying him. That was the first time we met him.

  • 'All You Can Eat
    ‘All You Can Eat TV’ An exploration of how long form, serial storytelling for television has evolved alongside recent developments in digital television distribution platforms. This thesis also examines how these new technologies have changed the ‘rules’ of narrative, television screenwriting. Masters of Fine Arts by Elise McCredie (DipDA, BA.) Principle Supervisor: Dr Annabelle Murphy Melbourne University Faculty of Fine Arts and Music School of Film and Television April 2018 2 CONTENTS Introduction 3 Chapter 1 5 Chapter 2 13 Chapter 3 19 Conclusion 27 Bibliography/Filmography 30 3 INTRODUCTION “I hate television. I hate it just as much as peanuts but I just can’t stop eating peanuts.” Orson Welles1 I am sitting iPad in front of me, my finger poised over the PAUSE icon. Should I watch another episode or should I go to bed? If I don’t watch another episode will my dreams be full of all the possible outcomes for Don Draper, Walter White or Sarah Lund? Will my imagination soar with possibilities or should I give into the gnawing, addictive urge to watch just one more episode? Will I enjoy it? Or will I, in a foggy state of addictive exhaustion, only take in half of the complicated plot points? If this is the modern conundrum for today’s viewers, then what does it mean for today’s screenwriters? How does this glut of instantly available serial content affect the way we write serial drama? In the last twenty years, there has been a revolution in viewing practices. Broadcast executives have been slowly de-throned as digital advances make viewing serial television a democratic, individualised, multi-platform and frequently illegal practice.
