This complete series set is a long-overdue celebration of the enormously influential program and offers fans a collection to treasure for years to come. Why We Love It. “As the Shout! Factory releases a boxed set this week containing all nine seasons of the series along with some tasty extras, it is clearer than ever what a singular phenomenon 'All in the Family' was. Sure, it was a funny show with a fabulous cast, but we can now see that it may also have been a high-water mark for television in terms of how much impact a single series can have in shaping American culture.” – The New York Times. “I'd give All in the Family: The Complete Series our highest award here at DVDTalk: the DVD Talk Collector Series award. On content alone, it's the best TV release of 2012.” – DVD Talk. “This nicely compact set has everything you'd want, including all 208 episodes solidly remastered, retrospectives, pilots for the direct spin-offs and more. It's a landmark series in every way.” – Huffington Post. “Normal Lear's iconic sitcom – still widely and correctly viewed as one of the greatest series of all time – gets the long-awaited Complete Series DVD treatment courtesy of Shout! Factory.” – Television Without Pity. All In The Family (Season 3) DVD Review. The #1 Nielsen rated program from 1971 to 1976, All In The Family is quite simply one of the greatest television programs in history. Inspired by The Honeymooners and The Flintstones, All In The Family features its own loud-mouthed, opinionated blowhard sporting a hidden soft and sensitive side. Like Ralph Kramden and Fred Flintstone, Archie Bunker fulfills his role to absolute perfection, and the result is TV magic. Well- written and outright hilarious, All In The Family broke ground in the 70's with its willingness to tackle all the social issues and societal taboos of its day. Topics included racism, bigotry, sexism, homosexuality, death, and other namby-pam, socialist and liberal-feminist ideals (or at least that's how Archie would put it!) A titan among television sitcoms, All In The Family spawned a pair of shows which topped the ratings in their own right - Maude and The Jeffersons… Carroll O'Connor plays the role of Archie Bunker, the titular head of the Bunker household. Loud and crass, Archie freely dispenses his bigoted remarks and ignorant comments from the living room of his Queens, New York home. Joining Archie is his loving and ditsy wife Edith (Jean Stapelton), his beautiful and progressive daughter Gloria (Sally Struthers), and her ultra-liberal husband Mike (Rob Reiner) whom Archie refers to as "Meathead". As Gloria and Mike's modern ideas clash with Archie's old school beliefs, all hell breaks loose in the Bunker household, but the Bunkers don't spend all their time arguing as they're inevitably held together by the immutable bond of love… The All In The Family (Season 3) DVD features a number of hilarious episodes including the season premiere "Archie and the Editorial" in which Archie ardently defends his anti-gun control views on a TV editorial show, only to be held up by a pair of muggers wielding a gun when he leaves the station. The incident causes Archie to transform into a gun control advocate… Other notable episodes from Season 3 include "Lionel Steps Out" in which Lionel Jefferson takes Archie's niece out on the town (peeving Archie who believes whites and blacks don't mix), and "Mike's Appendix" in which Archie and Gloria fight over the credentials of female doctors when Mike is forced to have an emergency appendectomy… Below is a list of episodes included on the All In The Family (Season 3) DVD: Episode 38 (Archie and the Editorial) Air Date: 09-16-1972 Episode 39 (Archie's Fraud) Air Date: 09-23-1972 Episode 40 (The Threat) Air Date: 09-30-1972 Episode 41 (Gloria and the Riddle) Air Date: 10-07-1972 Episode 42 (Lionel Steps Out) Air Date: 10-14-1972 Episode 43 (Edith Flips Her Whig) Air Date: 10-21-1972 Episode 44 (The Bunkers and the Swingers) Air Date: 10-28-1972 Episode 45 (Mike Comes Into Money) Air Date: 11-04-1972 Episode 46 (Flashback: Mike and Gloria's Wedding: Part 1) Air Date: 11-11-1972 Episode 47 (Flashback: Mike and Gloria's Wedding: Part 2) Air Date: 11-18-1972 Episode 48 (The Locket) Air Date: 11-23-1972 Episode 49 (Mike's Appendix) Air Date: 12-02-1972 Episode 50 (Edith's Winning Ticket) Air Date: 12-09-1972 Episode 51 (Archie and the Bowling Team) Air Date: 12-16-1972 Episode 52 (Archie in the Hospital) Air Date: 01-06-1973 Episode 53 (Oh Say Can You See) Air Date: 01-20-1973 Episode 54 (Archie Goes Too Far) Air Date: 01-27-1973 Episode 55 (Class Reunion) Air Date: 02-10-1973 Episode 56 (Hot Watch) Air Date: 02-17-1973 Episode 57 (Archie is Branded) Air Date: 02-24-1973 Episode 58 (Everybody Tells the Truth) Air Date: 03-03-1973 Episode 59 (Archie Learns His Lesson) Air Date: 03-10-1973 Episode 60 (Gloria, the Victim) Air Date: 03-17-1973 Episode 61 (The Battle of the Month) Air Date: 03-24- 1973.

Hours after getting the initial call June 26 about a disturbance at a residence on H.A. Varnum Road, deputies caught up with Randall Pitts on Boneyard Road off CR 69, just inside Jackson County. He was sitting in the driver’s seat of his black Pontiac Sunfire, which was parked in the middle of the road. When a deputy, using a loud speaker, urged him to resolve the situation without anyone being hurt, Pitts replied: “Just let me die in peace.” Moments later, Pitts sped off, going eastbound on Boneyard Road. After driving about a mile, he came to a roadblock set up by the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office. Pitts stopped in the middle of the road. Deputies drew their guns and took cover. RANDALL PITTS Pitts ignored deputies as they repeatedly attempted to talk him into peacefully resolving the standoff.

  • An Analysis of Hegemonic Social Structures in "Friends"
    "I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU" IF YOU ARE JUST LIKE ME: AN ANALYSIS OF HEGEMONIC SOCIAL STRUCTURES IN "FRIENDS" Lisa Marie Marshall A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2007 Committee: Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor Audrey E. Ellenwood Graduate Faculty Representative James C. Foust Lynda Dee Dixon © 2007 Lisa Marshall All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Katherine A. Bradshaw, Advisor The purpose of this dissertation is to analyze the dominant ideologies and hegemonic social constructs the television series Friends communicates in regard to friendship practices, gender roles, racial representations, and social class in order to suggest relationships between the series and social patterns in the broader culture. This dissertation describes the importance of studying television content and its relationship to media culture and social influence. The analysis included a quantitative content analysis of friendship maintenance, and a qualitative textual analysis of alternative families, gender, race, and class representations. The analysis found the characters displayed actions of selectivity, only accepting a small group of friends in their social circle based on friendship, gender, race, and social class distinctions as the six characters formed a culture that no one else was allowed to enter. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project stems from countless years of watching and appreciating television. When I was in college, a good friend told me about a series that featured six young people who discussed their lives over countless cups of coffee. Even though the series was in its seventh year at the time, I did not start to watch the show until that season.

    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.

  • April, 1972 a Message from the Chairman, Title Insurance and Underwriters Section
    April, 1972 A Message from the Chairman, Title Insurance and Underwriters Section APRIL, 1972 The recent Mid-Winter Conference of the Association generated the largest registration of all mid­ year meetings to date. Obviously, many factors contributed to this manifestation of interest and de­ sire for participation in the affair of our Association, including the attractiveness of a dynamic eco­ nomic and cultural center such as the beautiful city of Atlanta. However, I rather suspect that the greatest motivating force that served to stimulate this mass migration of title men and women to Atlanta was their sincere concern over the unprecedented and undeserved attacks recently directed against our industry from the Capitol Hill scene, and their firm resolve to unite in its support and defense. Those of us who are cognizant of the substantive and meaningful contributions made by our in­ dustry to the general economic progress of this nation; who understand the complexities involved in the ownership, transfer and financing of interests in real estate and the consequent need for the precise and invaluable services and assurances afforded through our industry endeavors; and who are acquainted with the dedication and professional integrity that characterize the overwhelming majority of our individual members, should not hesitate to make our beliefs known and our voices heard. The current national interest in consumerism is sound and logical and is certainly compatible with the precepts and principles that have historically undergirded our industry. As a result, our past has been noteworthy with achievement, and our future is filled with countless opportunities for profitable growth and development.

The awards honor classic shows and performers. From left: Charlene Tilton, Linda Gray, Larry Hagman, Patrick Duffy, Sheree Wilson, Mary Crosby, Susan Howard, Ken Kercheval and Steve Kanaly. STEVE EMBER: Welcome to THE MAKING OF A NATION -- American history in VOA Special English. I'm Steve Ember. This week in our series, we look back at some of the social issues and cultural changes in America in the nineteen seventies and eighties. (MUSIC) In some ways, the nineteen eighties seemed like the opposite of the nineteen sixties. The sixties were years of protest for social justice and change. Many Americans demonstrated against the Vietnam War. Blacks demonstrated for civil rights. Women demonstrated for equality. Many people welcomed new social programs created by the government. By the nineteen eighties, however, many people seemed more concerned with themselves than with helping society. To them, success was measured mainly by how much money a person made. People wanted to live the good life, and that took money. 2 The changes started to become evident during the nineteen seventies. For a while, these years brought a continuation of the social experiments and struggles of the sixties. But then people began to see signs of what society would be like in the eighties. There were a number of reasons for this change. One reason was the end to America's military involvement in Vietnam after years of war.

  • LGBTQ Episodic Television Study Guide
    Archive Study Guide: LESBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL AND TRANSGENDER TELEVISION: SITCOMS AND EPISODIC DRAMAS ARCHIVE STUDY GUIDE The representation of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender (LGBT) communities on television is marked by a history of stereotypes and inexplicable invisibility. By the 1970s, gay media-watch groups communicated their concerns to the television industry and a sense of cooperation began to emerge between the LG BT community and broadcasters. During the 1980s, the AIDS crisis and resulting prejudices ushered in a new era of problematic and offensive portrayals. In the late 1990s, Ellen Degeneres' landmark coming out, (both in real- life, and through the character she portrayed in her sitcom), generated much controversy and discussion, ultimately paving the way for well -developed gay characters in prominent primetime TV roles. Despite such advances, stereotypes continue to resurface and perpetuate, and the full diversity of the LGBT community is more often than not underrepresented in the mass media.
