TV Female Foursomes and Their Fans: Featuring The Golden Girls, Designing Women, Living Single, Sex and the City, Girlfriends, Cashmere Mafia and Hot in Cleveland by Wendy A. Burns-Ardolino - 2016

McFarland, 2016. Paperback. New Book. Paperback. TV Female Foursomes and Their Fans is a study on the complexity and diversity of perspectives and worldviews presented in shows with female foursomes, using the following television shows as examples: Hot in Cleveland, Girlfriends, Cashmere Mafia, Sex and the City, Living Single, Designing Women, and The Golden Girls. This book presents the idea that the variety of characters and personalities presented in these shows allows viewers from differing perspectives to engage in these programs and opens the door to larger discussions on controversial subjects, which produces a more politicized viewership. Appendices include chapter notes and multiple personality quizzes for discussion and exploration. (2016 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR)
