  • The Musical Number and the Sitcom
    ECHO: a music-centered journal www.echo.ucla.edu Volume 5 Issue 1 (Spring 2003) It May Look Like a Living Room…: The Musical Number and the Sitcom By Robin Stilwell Georgetown University 1. They are images firmly established in the common television consciousness of most Americans: Lucy and Ethel stuffing chocolates in their mouths and clothing as they fall hopelessly behind at a confectionary conveyor belt, a sunburned Lucy trying to model a tweed suit, Lucy getting soused on Vitameatavegemin on live television—classic slapstick moments. But what was I Love Lucy about? It was about Lucy trying to “get in the show,” meaning her husband’s nightclub act in the first instance, and, in a pinch, anything else even remotely resembling show business. In The Dick Van Dyke Show, Rob Petrie is also in show business, and though his wife, Laura, shows no real desire to “get in the show,” Mary Tyler Moore is given ample opportunity to display her not-insignificant talent for singing and dancing—as are the other cast members—usually in the Petries’ living room. The idealized family home is transformed into, or rather revealed to be, a space of display and performance. 2. These shows, two of the most enduring situation comedies (“sitcoms”) in American television history, feature musical numbers in many episodes. The musical number in television situation comedy is a perhaps surprisingly prevalent phenomenon. In her introduction to genre studies, Jane Feuer uses the example of Indians in Westerns as the sort of surface element that might belong to a genre, even though not every example of the genre might exhibit that element: not every Western has Indians, but Indians are still paradigmatic of the genre (Feuer, “Genre Study” 139).

    JILL WAGNER AND MATTHEW DAVIS STAR IN ‘CHRISTMAS WISHES AND MISTLETOE KISSES,’ A NEW, ORIGINAL MOVIE PREMIERING OCTOBER 26TH, ON HALLMARK CHANNEL Donna Mills Co-Stars in Adaptation of Jenny Hale’s Novel Premieres as Part of the Network’s Annual, Popular Countdown to Christmas Programming Event STUDIO CITY, CA – October 4, 2019 – Jill Wagner (“Christmas in Evergreen: Letters to Santa,” “Mystery 101”), Matthew Davis (“The Vampire Diaries,” “Damages”) and Donna Mills (“General Hospital,” “Knots Landing”) star in “Christmas Wishes and Mistletoe Kisses,” a new, original movie premiering Saturday, October 26 (8 p.m. ET/PT), on Hallmark Channel. The movie airs as part of the network’s #1-rated programming event, COUNTDOWN TO CHRISTMAS, celebrating its 10th year. Hallmark Channel is historically the #1 television network in all of Q4. Former interior designer Abbey Fuller (Wagner) traded the uncertainties of running a small business for a 9-5 job that lets her keep a consistent schedule for her five-year-old son Max (Wyatt Hunt). Her talent and passion for the work are undeniable and her friend, wealthy widow Caroline Sinclair (Mills), is eager to see Abbey re-launch her career. And Caroline has just the project to get her started: redecorating the grand Sinclair family estate, which recently became home to Caroline’s son, Nick (Davis), the CEO of Sinclair Enterprises. It’s an exciting opportunity – and a daunting one, given the size of the estate and the aesthetic nightmare of its current furnishings. Moreover, Abbey has less than four weeks to complete work on the ground floor, where Nick will host the Christmas Eve gala that could make or break the expansion of the family business.

  • Evil and Social Formation
    RELIGION AND POLITICS IN FILMS ABOUT THE VIETNAM WAR By JAY MICHAEL ALLBRITTON A THESIS PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULLFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2003 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS There are many people without whom this thesis could not have been written. As the chair of my thesis committee and a scholarly beacon, Dr. Gene R. Thursby guided me whenever I sought him out, which was frequently. Dr. David G. Hackett and Dr. Sheldon Isenberg rounded out the thesis committee and provided much needed assistance. Dr. Manuel Vasquez and Dr. Louise Newman (from the History Department), though not on my committee, also provided a great deal of direction and encouragement. This thesis would not exist without Julia Smith and Annie Newman because I doubt the department would exist without them. The students who went before me--Michael Gressett, Paul Moonoak, Stacey Crandle and Todd Best--showed me the way. Of course, others can only help so much. Where this thesis is strong it is due to those credited above. Where it is weak the fault lies with me alone. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS page AKNOWLEDGMENTS...........................................iv ABSTRACT..................................................v CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION...........................................1 2 THE EVOLUTION OF THE LIBERAL/CONSERVATIVE DIVIDE...............................................8 Prophetic and Priestly Type.........................10 The My Lai Massacre.................................13

    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2019 Societal relevance as success factor of TV series: the creators’ perception Verhoeven, Marcel Posted at the Zurich Open Repository and Archive, University of Zurich ZORA URL: https://doi.org/10.5167/uzh-170818 Dissertation Published Version Originally published at: Verhoeven, Marcel. Societal relevance as success factor of TV series: the creators’ perception. 2019, University of Zurich, Faculty of Arts. Societal Relevance as Success Factor of TV Series: The Creators’ Perception Thesis Presented to the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences of the University of Zurich for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Marcel Verhoeven Accepted in the Spring Term 2019 on the Recommendation of the Doctoral Committee: Prof. Dr. Gabriele Siegert (main advisor) Prof. Dr. M. Bjørn von Rimscha (second advisor) Zurich, 2019 0 Abstract Media mediate societally relevant messages in formats that disseminate information. However, the communication of ideas and opinions on societal issues also takes place in entertainment formats such as fictional TV series. Furthermore, mediation in entertainment is often regarded as more effective than dissemination through information formats, (also) due to the evading of recipients’ selection barriers. The importance of investigating TV series bases on the format’s large narrative space that enables the communication and repetition of ideas and messages and on the format’s popularity with audiences and, consequently, with broadcasters. Countless different influences shape the composition of TV series’ content and the inclusion of societally relevant messages. One potentially very important reason for incorporating specific messages and content elements in TV series is the extent to which decision-makers regard societal relevance as a success factor.

  • Understanding and Appreciating the Wonder Years
    Understanding and Appreciating the Wonder Years John H. Lounsbury Growing Up Forgotten, thus Joan Lipsitz entitled her landmark study and captured the major reality revealed by her research. Subtitled, A Review of Research and Programs Concerning Early Adolescence, this 1977 publication was instrumental in bringing recognition to early adolescence as a distinct stage of human development. While our language limited the classification of human to infants, children, adolescents, and adults, the years of transition between childhood and full adolescence comprise a unique stage, one not well served by our society and its institutions. In fact, these years have not been seen as constituting an important period at all. Lipsitz' study documented the limited research, attention, and advocacy focused on young adolescents. The beliefs generally held about them have been largely negative and are more myths than realities. Gradually, however, in the last two decades society has come to acknowledge this stage of life as a period that warrants special attention. The booming middle school movement is focused on providing an appropriate educational program for 10-15 year olds. The Central Importance of Early Adolescence Young adolescents do not just get bigger; distinctively different bodies emerge from these growing years. More extensive physical and personal changes now occur than at any other time of life. While the physical changes are the most obvious, profound changes are taking place in mental, social, emotional, and moral development. The dramatic physical changes do not occur at the same time or at the same rate. The fact that girls mature a year and a half to two years ahead of boys is widely recognized, but the tremendous variation in the rate and timing of the developmental processes of both boys and girls is not so well known.

Located in South Texas, near the Gulf of Mexico between Brownsville and Corpus Christi, King Ranch has, for a long time, been the most famous ranch in the world. Developed by King on land in the Wild Horse Desert threaded by Santa Gertudis Creek, the ranch comprises coastal prairies, arid plains, mixed brush lands, and marshes in a generally humid subtropical climate.
