Not-So-Desperate Housewives

This controversial pilot program interested more than 25 million viewers when Desperate Housewives was first aired on the ABC Television Network in October 2004. The seemingly quiet, average suburban street is called Wisteria Lane and the 4 women - Lynette Scavo, Gabrielle Solis, Bree Van de Kamp, Susan Mayer - will soon be the neighbors and members of the poker club Mary-Alice Young It leads to suicide. The reasons for the death of Mary Alice have not been known for several seasons yet, but the show began to show a juicy plot full of suburban stereotype dramas; during the love triangle and the tragedy, more rare and magical events It began to happen.

First of all, I think it is worth noting that the title and purpose of the show nods to ABC's hopeless housewife. In 2005, desperate housewife won six of the seven Emmy awards before Bravo televised the first authentic housewife episode. Although the title of "Desperate Housewives" is witty, it is believed that recycling only degraded languages ​​will only give power only if it is done only by people who have been destroyed. To make all viewers and all Hollywood players, Dick and Leo say "desperate" to women in this popular show, is not to be released from stereotypes, but to keep it. A real housewife replied to ABC's script series, and these 'housewives' seems not desperate (even if they are so). In addition, the program for women over the age of 35 is incompatible with the fact that everyone is trying to slap their face.

The aim of this section is to explore the format and function of female dubbing narratives in the TV series "Sex and the City", "Desperate Housewives", and "Gossip Girl", focusing on a series of desperate housewives. In order to fully understand each and every agenda, it is important to fully analyze who the narrator is and what they represent. The survey in this white paper is based on the analysis of the first three series of each TV show and focuses mainly on the voice towards narration.

It is worth noting that all three TV programs are of different types. "Sex and the City" and "Desperate Housewives" are concerned about the personal lives of their four protagonists, but their lengths are different: "Sex and the City" is classified as a comedy about 25 minutes , Classified as despair of about 45 minutes. Housewife, it is classified as a drama series (similar to the 45-minute youth drama series Gossip Girl). I know who the narrator is in 'desperate housewife' and 'sex and city', but rarely have seen them talking. This is described by Allrath et al. It is a view. Call it "invisible narrator's voice" (15th year). The narrator shows the surrounding audience, introduces the scene they are seeing, and does not show his or her face to help them understand the main focus of the episode.
