  • Memetic Proliferation and Fan Participation in the Simpsons

    Memetic Proliferation and Fan Participation in the Simpsons

    THE UNIVERSITY OF HULL Craptacular Science and the Worst Audience Ever: Memetic Proliferation and Fan Participation in The Simpsons being a Thesis submitted for the Degree of PhD Film Studies in the University of Hull by Jemma Diane Gilboy, BFA, BA (Hons) (University of Regina), MScRes (University of Edinburgh) April 2016 Craptacular Science and the Worst Audience Ever: Memetic Proliferation and Fan Participation in The Simpsons by Jemma D. Gilboy University of Hull 201108684 Abstract (Thesis Summary) The objective of this thesis is to establish meme theory as an analytical paradigm within the fields of screen and fan studies. Meme theory is an emerging framework founded upon the broad concept of a “meme”, a unit of culture that, if successful, proliferates among a given group of people. Created as a cultural analogue to genetics, memetics has developed into a cultural theory and, as the concept of memes is increasingly applied to online behaviours and activities, its relevance to the area of media studies materialises. The landscapes of media production and spectatorship are in constant fluctuation in response to rapid technological progress. The internet provides global citizens with unprecedented access to media texts (and their producers), information, and other individuals and collectives who share similar knowledge and interests. The unprecedented speed with (and extent to) which information and media content spread among individuals and communities warrants the consideration of a modern analytical paradigm that can accommodate and keep up with developments. Meme theory fills this gap as it is compatible with existing frameworks and offers researchers a new perspective on the factors driving the popularity and spread (or lack of popular engagement with) a given media text and its audience.
  • The Simpsons' Waylon Smithers

    The Simpsons' Waylon Smithers

    The Simpsons’ Waylon Smithers Introducing the Character Waylon Smithers Jr. is an animated character and one of the “regular” cast members of the long-running Fox network’s cartoon for adults The Simpsons. The show, which recently entered its fourth decade, is a comedy and parody that takes a satirical look at American society and Western cultural values. Waylon Smithers Jr. is the personal assistant to Mr. Montgomery Burns, the chief executive officer (CEO) of the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant. Cast as Mr. Burns’s selfless, self-effacing, and dedicated assistant, Smithers, as he is referred to on the show, is a gay man who has not let his sexual identity become known to others on the show. He secretly fantasizes about sexual trysts with his boss and even has a pop-up screen saver on his computer that contains a naked image of Mr. Burns that says “Hello Smithers, you’re quite good at turning me on.” Smithers is often the butt of jokes by others at the power plant, most notoriously Homer Simpson, who has long suspected Smithers of being gay. Smithers continually ingratiates himself to Mr. Burns—a deeply narcissistic and sadistic employer and person who may at some level know of Smithers’s interest in him and who takes advantage of him at all turns. The following basic case summary and diagnostic impressions present our portrayal of Smithers’s recent counseling session as a result of troubles at work. Basic Case Summary Identifying Information. Waylon Smithers Jr. is a 48-year-old European American male of Norwegian descent who has been working as an executive assistant at the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant for the last 20 years.

  • The Simpsons WORKSHEET A

    The Simpsons WORKSHEET A

    Inside Out The Simpsons WORKSHEET A First shown on television in 1989, the animated sitcom The Simpsons quickly became a huge success. The first series attracted an average of more than 13 million viewers per episode in the United States, and it wasn’t long before it started gaining fans in many other countries. In its 18 year history it has won countless prizes, as well as being named best ever television series by Time magazine. So what do people find so funny about the dysfunctional Simpson family and the other cartoon characters who inhabit the imaginary American town of Springfield? One possible answer is that the show doesn’t just poke fun at American society and culture, but also at universal aspects of the human condition. It also balances ‘low’ and ‘high’ humour, for example by combining amusing visual jokes with clever references to social and political issues, music, science, television and history. The show’s principal characters are, of course, the members of the Simpson family. The father, Homer, is widely seen as one of the greatest comic characters in cartoon history. Although lazy, clumsy, inconsiderate and basically quite stupid, he still manages to be likeable, partly because in his own unusual way he is devoted to his wife and children. He works, rather inappropriately, as a safety inspector at the Springfield nuclear power station. His catchphrase, ‘D’oh!’, used on the many occasions when he makes a mistake, became so popular that in 2002 it entered the Oxford English Dictionary. It is fortunate that his long-suffering wife, Marge, possesses a tolerant personality in addition to her eye-catching blue hair.

  • The Id, the Ego and the Superego of the Simpsons

    The Id, the Ego and the Superego of the Simpsons

    Hugvísindasvið The Id, the Ego and the Superego of The Simpsons B.A. Essay Stefán Birgir Stefánsson January 2013 University of Iceland School of Humanities Department of English The Id, the Ego and the Superego of The Simpsons B.A. Essay Stefán Birgir Stefánsson Kt.: 090285-2119 Supervisor: Anna Heiða Pálsdóttir January 2013 Abstract The purpose of this essay is to explore three main characters from the popular television series The Simpsons in regards to Sigmund Freud‟s theories in psychoanalytical analysis. This exploration is done because of great interest by the author and the lack of psychoanalytical analysis found connected to The Simpsons television show. The main aim is to show that these three characters, Homer Simpson, Marge Simpson and Ned Flanders, represent Freud‟s three parts of the psyche, the id, the ego and the superego, respectively. Other Freudian terms and ideas are also discussed. Those include: the reality principle, the pleasure principle, anxiety, repression and aggression. For this analysis English translations of Sigmund Freud‟s original texts and other written sources, including psychology textbooks, and a selection of The Simpsons episodes, are used. The character study is split into three chapters, one for each character. The first chapter, which is about Homer Simpson and his controlling id, his oral character, the Oedipus complex and his relationship with his parents, is the longest due to the subchapter on the relationship between him and Marge, the id and the ego. The second chapter is on Marge Simpson, her phobia, anxiety, aggression and repression. In the third and last chapter, Ned Flanders and his superego is studied, mainly through the religious aspect of the character.

    With This Title I Would Like to Highlight Some Topical and Historical Aspects of Social Pedagogy As an Academic Discipline

    With this title I would like to highlight some topical and historical aspects of Social Pedagogy as an academic discipline. What do the Simpsons have in common with Social Pedagogy? A first answer is: they both make the family a subject of discussion. For this first answer, I will begin by showing a short scene. You will see the former president of the USA, George (Herbert) Bush, who talks about his goals in family politics. To express these family‐ political contents more pictorially he refers to two fictional families, namely the Waltons and the Simpsons. This is what he has to say: This is how, in 1992, the former president of the USA brings the objectives of family politics to the point. In the words of the French sociologist and social historian Jacques Donzelot, it is, in political terms, a matter of supporting the “order of family”, and this task is assigned to Social Pedagogy. 1 With his statement in 1992, George Bush points to a contrast, a line of differentiation between the two medial representations of family. Using this reference should demonstrate what the ideal is that an American family is supposed to follow; what the prototype of a “good” family looks like, and what its antithesis is: what is to be avoided and what a “bad” family looks like. The Waltons are shown as a family with a large number of children. Soundly based through three generations, they have – performing contemporary norms of gender, culture and class – finally suc‐ cessfully overcome various burdens and strokes of fate of the 1930s and 1940s (The Great Depres‐ sion, World War II).
