  • Alternative Currents in Dallas's Religious Traditions
    Swimming in Other Streams Alternative Currents in Dallas's Religious Traditions BY J. GoRDON MELTON ~e are two ways oflooking at religion in the state oITexas. In the first instance, we begin with the singular dominance ofTexas by just three religious groups-the Southern Baptists, T the United Methodists, and the Roman Catholics.Their membership accounts for about half argue, of the state's population, with a few additional groups-the Churches of Christ, the National ICan r Baptists (three groups), the African Methodists (three groups), the Presbyterians, two Lutheran partict groups, the Episcopalians, and several Pentecostal groups-filling out the next tier of religious is hon Texans. One could tell the story of Texas religion by limiting the account to these dozen group ~ anoth( groups and do very little, if any, injustice to it. some Additionally, this approach reflects the reality of religion at the national level, where over and sy half of the American population has chosen to be members of a mere twenty-five Christian larger denominations, each of which has at least one million members. Upon examination they gory a the L; are seen to represent the current spectrum of Christian belief and practice. Their position is set of strengthened by considering the forty additional denominations that have at least 100,000 them members and which also present the san1e spectrum of Christian theology, social stances, and the CJ public behavior. The worldview represented by the 25 big denominations is identical to the Christ worldview held by the additional 900+ Christian denominations in America, which together who f include between 70 and 80 percent of the American population.

  • Kvinderne Og Dallas
    Elektronisk version af artikel i Analyser af TV, ISBN 87-7332-102-8, Forlaget Medusa 1985 Anne Hjort Kvinderne og Dallas Den amerikanske W-serie Dallas forblev fra premieren i julen 1980, indtil det sidste 71. afsnit blev sendt to år senere, lidt af en sensation i dansk W. Med et overordentlig stort seertal på 2.9 millioner i starten og 2.4 millioner til slut er Dallas blevet set i alle samfundsgrupper - men alligevel ikke lige meget. Dal- las har været mest populær hos kvinderne. Det er kvinderne - og de kvindelige erfaringer - i Dailas og foran Dallas, der står centralt i den folgende artikel. Sporgsrnålet om Dallas' fascination og værdi for specielt dens kvindelige seere soges nemlig ikke alene besvaret ud fra en indholdsanalyse af serien, men også udfra interviews med kvinder om deres faktiske oplevel- se af serien og af en konkret episode, 'Julie vender tilba- ge', sendt i danskfjernsyn den 21. august 1981. Dallas er interessant, ikke mindst i lyset af den aktu- elle mediepolitiske situation i Europa, hvor W-satellit- ter og kabel-TV vil betyde en voldsom forogelse af TV- udbuddet og W-forbruget. Det er en situation, hvis kul- turpolitiske konsekvenser er usikre, men som med ga- ranti medforer én ting - vi får mere 'Dallas'. Dallas-serien Den fnrste episode af Dallas blev vist i USA i april 1978. Seriens ojeblikkelige succes betod, at CBS generobrede pladsen som 'the top prime-time network' fra ABC, som derefter straks gik i gang med at producere 'modserien' Dynasty (Dollars). Dallas' plof er folgende: Jock Ewing (som spilles af westernfilmveteranen Jim Davis) og Digger Barnes indgår engang i 30'erne et partnerskab.

  • Dallas As the Pinnacle of Human Evolutionary Television
    Review of General Psychology © 2012 American Psychological Association 2012, Vol. 16, No. 2, 200–207 1089-2680/12/$12.00 DOI: 10.1037/a0027915 Why Who Shot J. R. Matters: Dallas as the Pinnacle of Human Evolutionary Television Maryanne L. Fisher St. Mary’s University The TV series Dallas remains one of the most popular shows to ever have been broadcast on American TV. It was a serialized prime-time soap opera with weekly 45 minute episodes that ran from 1978 until 1991. This long-running show is one of the few to have been entirely released in DVD format; all 14 seasons are available as of 2011, and reruns are still aired internationally. Hundreds of thousands of visitors still tour the Southfork Ranch used for filming, outside Dallas, Texas. I will argue that the reason for this show’s success is because it routinely depicted themes that align with our evolved psychology. Using arguments that have been created to discuss literary Darwinism and gossip, I propose that this show depicted topics that have adaptive value; Dallas both exploits our evolved interests but also may act as a learning device for solving adaptive problems. Over the course of human evolution, it may have increased individual fitness to know who is wealthy or owns plentiful resources, has power and status, cheats on or poaches mates, engages in sibling rivalry, enhances their attractiveness, and so on. Dallas depicts these topics, and others, and thus, it is sensible that it would have been so successful among international audiences, and across decades. Keywords: mass media, evolution, TV, Dallas, prime time Why is it that so many TV shows seem to have the same basic manner, it begs the question of why that specific type of show is content? At the moment, one of my favorite shows is Castle.
