  • 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.

A pesquisa toma como objeto de análise o casal Brian e Justin de Queer As Folk. Com base em diferentes teóricos, os conceitos homossexualidade, homoerotismo e o termo homoafetividade colaboram para entender as definições acerca da atração por pessoas do mesmo sexo. Além disso, lançamos mãos da literatura sobre televisão, abordando as narrativas seriadas e um breve histórico sobre os personagens gays na TV. Palavras-chave: Queer as Folk; Homoafetividade; Homossexualidade; Séries televisuais Introdução O presente artigo é um recorte da pesquisa para o Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso “Homoafetividade na TV: análise das séries Queer As Folk, The L Word e Looking”4. O estudo foi realizado com as primeiras temporadas das séries citadas a fim de responder a questão: como são representados os casais homoafetivos em séries de TV americanas? Ou seja, de que maneira os afetos entre casais homossexuais são construídos pelas narrativas serializadas americanas? Neste artigo, abordaremos a construção da homoafetividade no casal Brian Kinney e Justin Taylor usando como corpus a primeira temporada de Queer As Folk. A série lançada em 2000 foi exibida originalmente no canal Showtime, nos Estados Unidos e no canal Showcase, no Canadá. Mostra, em cinco temporadas, histórias dos amigos gays Brian Kinney (Gale Harold), Michael Novotony (Hal Sparks), Emmet Honeycutt (Peter Page), Ted Schmidt (Scot Lowell) e Justin Taylor (Randy Harrison).

  • This Is a Test
    ‘LIES BETWEEN FRIENDS’ CAST BIOS GABRIELLE ANWAR (Joss) – Born in Berkshire, England, the endearing and accomplished Gabrielle Anwar has more than 45 film and television performances to her credit in both Europe and the United States, including her breakout film, “Scent of a Woman,” where she was whisked off her feet into an acclaimed tango with Al Pacino. Anwar has enthralled in a vast array of diverse characters from the blind diving horse circus performer in Disney’s biopic “Wild Hearts Can’t Be Broken” to the risqué royal in Showtime’s “The Tudors” to the supercilious counterpart to Noah Wyle in TNT’s “The Librarian II.” She also played the fatal object of desire in “Things To Do In Denver When You’re Dead,” the regal Queen Anne in “The Three Musketeers,” the party girl in BBC’s adaptation of Mortimer’s “Summer’s Lease” and the coquette pursuing Dermott Mulroney and Hope Davis in the independent feature “Happy Together.” Currently, Anwar stars as Fiona in the USA Network original series “Burn Notice.” With three children, a canine, a feline, an art studio, a yoga fanatic, a garden and a slew of literature in the works, Anwar lacks any free time. # # # CRAIG SHEFFER (Sheriff Zach Watts) – After studying theatre at East Stroudsburg University, Craig Sheffer immediately relocated to New York to pursue a career in acting. Early auditions landed him a role in the off-Broadway play Punchy, and he soon found himself co- starring in the award-winning Broadway production Torch Song Trilogy. In less than a year, producers spotted his work on Broadway and cast him in his feature-film debut opposite Emilio Estevez in “That Was Then, This Is Now.” Sheffer later landed starring roles in the John Hughes comedy “Some Kind of Wonderful” and the father/son drama “Split Decisions,” with Gene Hackman.

  • Introduction: Placing the Self Within the Frame 1 New Storytelling
    Notes Introduction: Placing the Self within the Frame 1. This is performed by the Mamas and the Papas (see Chapter 6). 2. For various opinions on the potential of textual analysis see Childs (2006), Kovala (2008) and McKee (2003). 3. Although Gwen Haworth’s documentary is relevant to lesbian discourse, as Haworth, a male to female transsexual, expresses lesbian desire, I have not included this work in my book, as the focus is largely transsexual. Despite this, Haworth’s documentary is highly contiguous to the theoretical ideas expressed within this book, concerning self-reflexive narrative expression and sexual diversity. 4. Also there are still laws which oppress non-heterosexuals within the Western world. 5. It is important to note that this often includes production funding from Anglocentric sources, which bears its own implications of textual influence. 1 New Storytelling: Transitions from the Past 1. Howard Auster had changed his name to Howard Austen early in his career, on advice from Gore Vidal to avoid advertising his Jewish identity at a time when it was hard to obtain work as a Jew (Vidal, 1995). In Gore Vidal’s mem- oir, Howard’s name is restored to the original spelling; hence I have adopted it here. 2. I use the term ‘literature’ in the general sense as ‘serious writing’, esteemed by authority such as academia. 3. I am only discussing the media of radio in this chapter, as a precursor to later developments in television, film and new media through the World Wide Web. 4. It is important to note that in some non-Western countries conversely homo- sexuality under certain circumstances may be considered to offer positive myths.

    3. Abstract An Act is a feature length narrative film exploring the aftermath of unsubstantiated accusations of sexual harassment that damaged a career of a young student actor. I intend to use the award for selected direct costs of the production. The fictionalized story is inspired by real life’s events that tore apart an idealistic theatre community and broke the dreams and lives of those involved. The real persons in the incident will work with me closely to help capture the nuances and complexities of the issues surrounding it. I will be utilizing the neo-neo realist model in my writing and directing the film to deliver an authentic portrayal of the characters and events. Stylistically, the film will blend narrative fiction and documentary. I’ve already received the CoFA Creative Research Award (October 2014) for the purpose of conducting personal interviews with the main subjects as part of my screenwriting process. I have assembled a crew of talented and committed artists and professionals, with whom I have worked in the past making my previous films. I intend to utilize my past experience and all resources available to deliver this story to the screen with the impact it deserves. It is a vital social commentary and a key project in my career. The world of professional acting engages in a constant pursuit of the thrilling illusion of reality in performance. The sexually explicit stories lure the actors to take great risks and often stretch the boundaries protecting their personal intimacy. There have been stories exploring false accusations of sexual misconduct arising from numerous fields of work, but never one set within the industry that invites its players to appear real while performing sexually explicit content.

  • Queering the Family: Kinship, Blood Relations and Marriage in Showtime’S Queer As Folk Marianne Kongerslev Copenhagen Business School, Denmark
    Queering the Family: Kinship, Blood Relations and Marriage in Showtime’s Queer as Folk Marianne Kongerslev Copenhagen Business School, Denmark Abstract This essay explores the ways in which the American television series Queer as Folk (2000–2005) constructs queer families. The show responds to the social and cultural challenges faced by LGBT families and expresses differing attitudes to assimilationism and compulsory heterosexuality. By juxtaposing two traditional, though homosexual, family units with an anti-assimilationist worldview, Queer as Folk questions what family signifies. The essay analyzes the series’ treatment of gay male versus lesbian kinship and sexuality, and its assumptions about gender, through the family as a central trope. Keywords Queer as Folk (US); television series; queer studies; family; gay marriage; LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) Any discussion in an American context of the notion of “family” will necessarily be complicated by the troublesome relationship between the reality of a heterogeneous population on the one hand, and the desire for homogeneity on the other. In addition, it is impossible to define with any accuracy what a family is or is supposed to be,1 but as Kath Weston points out, the “privileged construct” appears to be the heteronormative family paradigm.2 Bernstein and Reimann state that “in 1998, only 6.7 percent of all households [in the US] fit the ‘traditional’ nuclear-family model.”3 With this statistic, it can seem rather curious that the issue of gay marriage and queer families is such a controversial one. Part of the explanation may lie in the notion of national myths or idealized perceptions of imagined communities.
