  • HBO: Brand Management and Subscriber Aggregation: 1972-2007
    1 HBO: Brand Management and Subscriber Aggregation: 1972-2007 Submitted by Gareth Andrew James to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English, January 2011. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. ........................................ 2 Abstract The thesis offers a revised institutional history of US cable network Home Box Office that expands on its under-examined identity as a monthly subscriber service from 1972 to 1994. This is used to better explain extensive discussions of HBO‟s rebranding from 1995 to 2007 around high-quality original content and experimentation with new media platforms. The first half of the thesis particularly expands on HBO‟s origins and early identity as part of publisher Time Inc. from 1972 to 1988, before examining how this affected the network‟s programming strategies as part of global conglomerate Time Warner from 1989 to 1994. Within this, evidence of ongoing processes for aggregating subscribers, or packaging multiple entertainment attractions around stable production cycles, are identified as defining HBO‟s promotion of general monthly value over rivals. Arguing that these specific exhibition and production strategies are glossed over in existing HBO scholarship as a result of an over-valuing of post-1995 examples of „quality‟ television, their ongoing importance to the network‟s contemporary management of its brand across media platforms is mapped over distinctions from rivals to 2007.

  • Enseñanzas De the Good Doctor = a Physician with Autism in the TV
    RMC Original JMM ¿Un médico con autismo en la televisión? Enseñanzas de The Good Doctor Irene CAMBRA-BADII1,2, Josep-E. BAÑOS1 1Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud y de la Vida. Universitat Pompeu Fabra. Barcelona (España). 2CONICET, Facultad de Psicología. Universidad de Buenos Aires (Argentina). Autor para correspondencia: Josep E Baños. Correo electrónico: [email protected] Recibido el 14 de agosto de 2018; aceptado el 13 de septiembre de 2018. Cómo citar este artículo: Cambra Badii I, Baños JE. ¿Un médico con autismo en la televisión? Enseñanzas de The Good Doctor. Rev Med Cine [Internet] 2018;14(4): 273-283. Resumen La serie televisiva The Good Doctor / El buen doctor (TV) (2017) de David Shore (Estados Unidos) resulta fecunda para analizar diversas cuestiones de importancia para las ciencias de la salud. En primer lugar, en tanto que serie médica, permite adentrarnos en la ficción de médicos y pacientes, los dilemas bioéticos suscitados en sus relaciones y las implicaciones de la actuación profesional en la vida de los pacientes. Por otra parte, las peculiares cualidades del protagonista (caracterizado con un diagnóstico de autismo y síndrome de savant, lo cual lo hace ser tan extre- madamente inteligente como poco hábil en las relaciones sociales) resultan la vía de acceso para el análisis de las representaciones sobre las personas con autismo, tanto en el cine como en la televisión. En este artículo nos foca- lizaremos especialmente en la representación del autismo y en el hecho de que el protagonista sea el primer médico autista en aparecer en una serie. ¿Cuáles son las características de estos personajes? ¿Cómo está caracterizado el protagonista de The Good Doctor? Su utilidad docente para estudiantes de ciencias de la salud se multiplica y per- mite retomar cuestiones bioéticas, aspectos ligados a la comunicación médico-paciente y los límites y las posibilida- des de la práctica médica.

  • WRITING for EPISODIC TV from Freelance to Showrunner
    WRITING FOR EPISODIC TV From Freelance to Showrunner Written by: Al Jean Brad Kern Jeff Melvoin Pamela Pettler Dawn Prestwich Pam Veasey John Wirth Nicole Yorkin Additional Contributions by: Henry Bromell, Mitch Burgess, Carlton Cuse, Robin Green, Barbara Hall, Al Jean, Amy Lippman, Dan O’Shannon, Phil Rosenthal, Joel Surnow, John Wells, Lydia Woodward Edited by: John Wirth Jeff Melvoin i Introduction: Writing for Episodic Television – A User’s Guide In the not so distant past, episodic television writers worked their way up through the ranks, slowly in most cases, learning the ropes from their more-experienced colleagues. Those days are gone, and while their passing has ushered in a new age of unprecedented mobility and power for television writers, the transition has also spelled the end of both a traditional means of education and a certain culture in which that education was transmitted. The purpose of this booklet is twofold: first, to convey some of the culture of working on staff by providing informal job descrip- tions, a sense of general expectations, and practical working tips; second, to render relevant WGA rules into reader-friendly lan- guage for staff writers and executive producers. The material is organized into four chapters by job level: FREE- LANCER, STAFF WRITER/STORY EDITOR, WRITER-PRODUCER, EXECUTIVE PRODUCER. For our purposes, executive producer and showrunner are used interchangeably, although this is not always the case. Various appendices follow, including pertinent sections of the WGA Minimum Basic Agreement (MBA). As this is a booklet, not a book, it does not make many distinc- tions among the different genres found in episodic television (half- hour, animation, primetime, cable, first-run syndication, and so forth).

  • Applying a Rhizomatic Lens to Television Genres
    A THOUSAND TV SHOWS: APPLYING A RHIZOMATIC LENS TO TELEVISION GENRES _______________________________________ A Dissertation presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School at the University of Missouri-Columbia _______________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy _____________________________________________________ by NETTIE BROCK Dr. Ben Warner, Dissertation Supervisor May 2018 The undersigned, appointed by the dean of the Graduate School, have examined the Dissertation entitled A Thousand TV Shows: Applying A Rhizomatic Lens To Television Genres presented by Nettie Brock A candidate for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy And hereby certify that, in their opinion, it is worthy of acceptance. ________________________________________________________ Ben Warner ________________________________________________________ Elizabeth Behm-Morawitz ________________________________________________________ Stephen Klien ________________________________________________________ Cristina Mislan ________________________________________________________ Julie Elman ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Someone recently asked me what High School Nettie would think about having written a 300+ page document about television shows. I responded quite honestly: “High School Nettie wouldn’t have been surprised. She knew where we were heading.” She absolutely did. I have always been pretty sure I would end up with an advanced degree and I have always known what that would involve. The only question was one of how I was going to get here, but my favorite thing has always been watching television and movies. Once I learned that a job existed where I could watch television and, more or less, get paid for it, I threw myself wholeheartedly into pursuing that job. I get to watch television and talk to other people about it. That’s simply heaven for me. A lot of people helped me get here.
