Do TV dramas reinforce the ideology of the family or do they interrogate it?
1. Background stuff on familial ideology/the 2.4 kids nuclear family stereotype etc
2. The ways in which soap opera has been regared as a genre which interrogates the family. (Gay men/masquerade etc).
3. What about other contemporary TV drama? Can we find texts which explicitly take on and interrogate the ideology of the family, by exploring the violences and abuses and fractured relationships which can occur within it, or do they generally support the ideology of the Bisto family?
You must DEFINITELY DECIDE ON three specific episodes of your chosen texts, get hold of them and begin your analysis of their family structures etc.
