Here are some questions/prompts to get our discussion on Wednesday going. Please have a gander at them, and be ready to discuss them, ask questions about them, or add to them when we meet.
Cheers,
Josh
1) Bring in three key terms/ideas from lecture or the readings you think could be on an exam, along with a definition.
2) What is spectacularization? Where do you see it in any of our screenings thus far?
3) How do Spigel and Mann argue that TV is connected to gender norms and politics? What evidence do they use to support their claims?
And speaking of gender norms/politics on TV, here's a fun music video that continues in the tradition of gender-bending on TV that we witnessed Milton Berle take part in. (It has nothing to do with class; it's here to hopefully bring a smile to you face.)
