For more than fifty years some very funny people have been entering American homes through television's big picture window. From Lucy and Uncle Miltie, to Archie Bunker and Marge Simpson, certain comic stars of television history have become not just cultural icons, but friends of the family. This comprehensive study of the most successful television comedies - including domestic sitcoms, workplace comedies, variety shows, late-night comedy, animated comedy, and more - reveals that, unlike the comedy found in film, on stage, in comedy clubs and concert halls, television's presentation of comic characters and stories must negotiate a relationship with the more privatized and value-laden environment of each American home that it enters.

Thisbroad-ranging survey of social and cultural theory issues an audacious challenge to contemporary cultural studies' emphasis on speculation, rather than observation. Toby Miller and Alec McHoul invite the reader to question their participation in both dominant and subcultural practices by providing perspectives on the everyday through ethnography, textual reading, discourse analysis and political economy. Following a summary of key ideas on an everyday practice, such as eating' or talking', each chapter considers the discourses that construct these practices, and concludes with one or more empirical investigations, opening up the possibility of a significant departure in cultural studies. The book ends with an excellent glossary of cultural studies terms.

These short stories are based on actual events. The stories were developed from experiences, interviews, and observations of the men and women of law enforcement. It must be noted that every story of humor, thousands of events occur daily in law enforcement that are serious. Many dangers and dilemmas exist in the every day lives of our police officers. This book was written to promote as well as inspire humor, which I think all of us as human beings posses. With all the seriousness, trials and tribulations life's journey brings, it is my belief that if we can find it within us to laugh at others and ourselves, our burdens can truly be lightened. In turn, our lives can be more tolerable, meaningful and enjoyable. We must not take ourselves too seriously, but we must not allow humor to be harmful to others. These stories are another side of police work that some may not be totally aware of. It is my hope they will give you a chuckle and offer a better understanding and appreciation of the human side of our dedicated police officers.
