  • We Are All Gossip Girl”: Gossip Girl and the Promise of Interactive Television
    PREVIOUSLY ON “We are all Gossip Girl”: Gossip Girl and the Promise of Interactive Television Elisa Lange In November 2010, Current TV, a cable network founded by former Vice President Al Gore, has started airing a 30 minute TV series called Bar Karma, which is created in online collaboration with fans and is thus a new step to truly participatory and interactive TV. On a website users can pitch storylines, comment on submitted entries, talk to the producers, and contribute marketing ideas. The show is co-produced by SimCity creator Will Wright and features well-known actors like William Sanderson (http://current.com/studios/about/). Of course, there is no guarantee that the fans’ story idea will find its way into the actual show since the producers and writers still hold the power to decide how and if a pitch is worked into the final product. Still, this project allows viewer to have more than an imaginary control over the televised narrative even if the project’s success still remains to be seen. Still, interactivity rarely plays out on the primary level of the TV program itself, but more commonly on the secondary level and tertiary level of the televisual text, that is network created websites that allow some contributions from fans and unregulated communications between fans (Fiske, 1983: 85). Interactivity within the TV landscape is often associated with the viewers’ ability to turn from passive consumers into active producers of content that “adds” to the televised narrative but does not change it (Hassapopoulou, 2010: 48). This distinction usually does not to take into account that even when viewers are passively sitting on their couch watching soap operas, their minds are still actively engaged in making sense of the narratives and relationships.

This thesis examines the social, cultural and political history of the Queen Bee figure in the popular culture of the twentieth and twenty first centuries. The Queen Bee is a fluid anti-heroine however, a feminist character who while she tears down others around her to succeed is also genuine with relatable emotions.

  • Gossip Girl Relevant Background Information Actors Artifacts
    Assignment One Lauren Ferrell Gossip Girl Relevant Background Information The show is set in New York City on the Upper East Side in the year 2007-2008. Some important locations in this series is: Grand Central train station where Serena van der Woodsen arrives at, Brooklyn where Dan Humphrey lives, Constance which is the school that they all attend, and a party venue in the Upper East Side where Blair Waldorf has the Kiss on the Lips party. The series is based off of the book series by Cecily von Ziegesar. The first observation that I did is on the first show in the series titled ‘Pilot’. The second observation that I did was on the second show in the series titled ‘The Wild Brunch’. Finally, the third observation I did was on the third show in the series titled ‘Poison Ivy’. Actors ❖ Serena van der Woodsen is the main character of the show. The ‘it’ girl of the Upper East Side. Serena left town the year before and when she shows back up everyone is trying to figure out why she ever left in the first place. Mistakes from her past are haunting her and she is now back and trying to make amends with everyone and forget about everything she did in her past. She is worried about her brother and the relationship she has with Blair Waldorf, her best friend. ❖ Dan Humphrey is considered the outsider character because he is not rich or considered important like everyone else. Serena van der Woodsen is his main focus, whom he has had a crush on for years.

  • Worthy Adversaries: Villains Take Center Stage from the Big Screen to Reality TV, the Bad Guys Are Stealing the Spotlight by Sona Charaipotra August 7, 2008 ABC News
    Worthy Adversaries: Villains Take Center Stage From the Big Screen to Reality TV, the Bad Guys Are Stealing the Spotlight By Sona Charaipotra August 7, 2008 ABC News Who doesn't love a good villain? Now more than ever, it seems showbiz is all about the bad guys, from Heath Ledger's deliciously devilish turn as The Joker in "The Dark Knight" to Spencer Pratt's train wreck tantrums on MTV's reality soap "The Hills." In fact, the Hollywood Reporter recently speculated the next film in the "Spider-Man" saga may well focus instead on Spidey's nemesis Venom. And there have been reports that Oscar-nominated actor Johnny Depp may step up to play The Riddler in the next installment of "Batman." "The bottom line is, it's fun to be bad on screen," said Tim Kring, the creator and executive producer of "Heroes," which will be all about villains this season. "There's a kind of deliciousness to playing a character who is not bound by the same rules that the rest of us have to live with. It's fun to play -- and it's certainly fun to write. We're doing those big scene-stealing kind of bad guys. For us, it's all about iconic storytelling, every character has to decide whether they're a good guy or a bad guy. It's a cultural shorthand." The rise of the villains can be attributed to the dark times we're facing, said professor Jonathan Young, director of the Center for Story and Symbol. "On a social level, the rise of unusually virulent adversaries reflects collective fears," Young said.
