Wanna welcome you all here tonight to the National Affairs, our topic tonight. Before we get started, I'll remind you that tomorrow afternoon, Daryl Dance will talking at three, and at 8:00 p.m. we'll have Emily Toth, and she'll be speaking here in the Sun Room also. Tonight, we have with us Horace Newcomb, he's currently at the University of Texas in Austin, topic on TV humor, he's been working, does a lot of research in popular culture with TV. He taught at Cornell for a few years, so we talked him into coming back in winter to Iowa. He was kind of scared last night, I think, when he saw the snow, but he brought us warm weather after all. Why don't you help me welcome Horace Newcomb, tonight?\r\n\r\n- I've been trying to figure out why I broke my rule, which is not to go into the Midwest after November 1st or before April 1st, and I found out, tonight, at dinner, it's because contrary to popular mythology, all the good beef is in Iowa, Texas doesn't hold a candle to what's available, I remember that well. It is nice to be here in warm weather. As is often the case, especially when titles are as vague as mine, \"TV Humor,\" I'm going to exercise my speaker's privilege and change the title. The new topic is, \"Television Comedy: \"Laughter in the Eye of the Mind.\" Now, you'll notice that there is nothing in this new title that tells you anything more than the old one about the substance of what I'm going to say, but you'll also notice that it's a sort of flashy title that academics like to use, it's supposed to capture your interest by its attention to ambiguity and some sense of style, it's the sort of title that might call you to pause as you flip through a journal looking at the other titles. Most importantly, of course, it has a colon in the title. You have to come to that full pause in an academic title before you have a really good one. I think it means that we all strive for some sense of balance, a statement that the mundane can indeed be elaborated with metaphor, a claim that somewhere in this pedants heart there lurks the ember of the poet's soul. So even when the topic is as familiar as television, so much a part of everyday life, there is always the chance, the hope that we have that there is something that will give us new eyes with which to examine the obvious. More people experience TV humor than have ever gone to plays or nightclubs, than read newspapers, perhaps than have gone to movies. Indeed, if you ever were not so intimately related to life, if we didn't tell jokes to and on one another, if all of us were not in some sense at one time or another comedians, then television would be the most prevalent vehicle for comedy that the world has ever known. But as is the case with so much of television, we watch it far more than we see it, we take for granted the availability of laughter, the fact that we can, on any given evening, have someone entertain, amuse, regale and enlighten us within a humorous context. We even take for granted some of the most brilliant humor that America has ever known, precisely because it comes to us in that most common of forms, the television show. I would like to try to counter that attitude, I want television to be taken seriously, to be given credit, to be examined as an incredibly complex medium instead of everyone's easy answer to what's wrong with individuals and societies. So my title, for all its ambiguity and false sense of poetry, is a serious one. My comments here will be a progressive whittling away at whatever highfalutin symbolism there is in the title so that we can come to a clearer, closer look at the rich layering of television humor, one expression of the most recent flowering of the tradition of American humor that you've been exploring throughout this series. I wanna bring to this subject something of a greater focus and precision, but focus and precision are hard to come by when examining television, I've already alluded to the difficulty of seeing things that are very close to us, and to that difficulty we must add the enormous range of television humor and the humorous approach to television that's so common in our society at large. Consider, for example, the range of possible topics that could serve to narrow our exploration of this subject. We could easily begin with the humor about television rather than the humor of television, this is best known, of course, in the common expression TV is a joke. There is an entire tradition here, as is evidenced in Fred Allen's definition of television as chewing gum for the eyes. We are all familiar with this realm of humor, we watched Johnny Carson read a list of new television shows, arching an occasional eyebrow, rolling his eyes, and we can agree that there is indeed a lot to laugh at. Indeed, when he offers his own comic versions of what new shows are, we sometimes can't tell the difference between those and the real shows. One of the most recent jokes about television I've heard came from a television producer who suggested that Fred Silverman's claim for excellence at NBC would rest on a new highbrow series, \"Sheriff Lobo Goes to College.\" The same sort of attitude is expressed in many cartoons about television, Jules Feiffer, Garry Trudeau and a host of New Yorker cartoonists have made great comic hay from looking at the medium itself, and I was tempted to ask Mr. Gill about this last night, because it seems to me that one could do an entire social history of television from New Yorker cartoons. My wife and I started collecting some a few years ago, and out of two years' issues of the New Yorker we had over 100 cartoons that dealt with television. One can even examine the nature of the technology, the sets that are depicted in the early cartoons are small tiny screen sets, are mirror image sets and the people watched them in different ways, it's an amazing way that we have of dealing with social phenomena to deal with them in cartooning. So we can even consider specific categories about television, we could easily say that the news is a joke, what is there to do between 5:00 and 6:30 or 7:00 in the evening besides sit there and laugh at another crisis? We seem unable to think of other responses to deal with those things. And of course, there are jokes as news to reverse the categories. Here, we are suddenly informed of that man who always seems to live in Minneapolis or somewhere who makes holes in the ice and goes swimming every New Year's Day. We are amused as we see him waddle off to wrap up in a thermal blanket after his ritual dip. Or we're treated to some other warm human story, some sense of gentle laughter from Hughes Rudd or Andy Rooney to close the news show, as if after the range of disaster and threat that we've just all waded through, we must be given a small sweet, a dessert, or a piece of candy with which to ease the memory that there was no real supper there at all. And we can also consider the category of politicians as joke by looking at television. Of course, you know at this point a great deal more about this than the rest of us, in other parts of the country at this stage, we're still limited to the television image of politicians, the spectacle of sniping and grousing and glad-handing and policy statement, TV makes it all look a bit funny and one can only hope that in real life the seriousness emerges somewhat more clearly. But you can see very quickly, I think, the difficulty with this line of thought. All of these comments verge on the cynical, and for me, cynicism is the antithesis of humor, it often wears the cloak of humor and there are times when it is indeed difficult to tell the difference between cynicism and a delicate sort of irony, but for the most part, I find these cynical responses to television and its content deficient. Ultimately, these jokes are about the audience, the joke is on us if we really believe what we see and hear in these jokes. Indeed, I will argue that to approach television in such a manner is immoral and evasion of the spirit of affirmative inquiry that is central to humor itself. Television humor is, as I've indicated, enormously rich and varied in the responses I've just cataloged are thin, impoverished avenues to understanding it. As an indication of television's own comic heritage, I want first to explore quite briefly an area that seems at first glance to be related to the cynical response, I'm speaking of the humor of and in commercials. As an aside, I wonder if this doesn't open a whole other category that might be explored in a seminar, or series of seminars, or talks on American humor, and that is humor in advertising. It seems to me that in these applied forms, forms which are designed to manipulate and to exploit, forms that communicate with very specific purposes, we can find a highly condensed form of humor that points the way to far more complex expressions. Now, here, I must take the first few shavings off of my ambiguous title and cut towards specificity and explanation, and this begins with what appears to be a digression, but it's not, so don't worry for a paragraph or two. As I'm sure did many of you, I grew up going to church every Sunday, I still do as a matter of fact, and occasionally, I still hear a phrase that was very common in my youthful experience of formulaic preachers who all seemed to sound alike, when we the congregation were needed as attentive partners in the sermon, usually when the preacher wished to make a specific historical point, we were engaged in this manner, \"Picture, if you will, in your mind's eye,\" and with this incantation, we would be transported with words and images into biblical history. And there in my mind's eye, that most marvelous of organs, I've found, I'd design the ark or the strange floating basket in which Moses floated before the pharaoh's daughter, I pictured the teeth of hungry lions and leaping tongues of eternal fires, later in my adolescence, I had other uses for my mind's eye during sermons which enabled me to get through those long moments. For the moment then, for purposes of example, I think it would be even more potent than if I had lots of television monitors here in the room, if you would, if you will, picture in your mind's eye some of your favorite television commercials, the humorous ones, the truly funny ones. Alka-Seltzer comes first to mind, the newlywed husband who ate the giant dumpling and all of his compatriots who could not believe that they ate the whole thing. Remember the waiters and the salesman, the tailors who took us beyond our own interest and best intentions with, \"Try it, you're gonna like it,\" think of the whining response, \"So I tried it, I thought I was gonna die.\" Can you call up the commercial about making commercials, \"That's one spicy meatball,\" or the simple visual array of shaking, moving, wiggling, jiggling, jogging stomachs that advertised Alka-Seltzer? And surely, I think we can all envision the gentle familiar humor of, \"I know, let's get Mikey to try it, \"he'll eat anything.\" We know, do we not, that there is no malice in such intent, in fact, we should recognize the link in that commercial to Tom Sawyer, to all the skillful manipulation that's part of our humorous tradition. Con men, snake oil salesman, medicine shows, all these have been the breeding, as well as the testing ground for our humor. Notice how quickly the slogans and phrases move from their sales-oriented base into the culture at large, how the interchange of words and images constantly replenishes the stock of humor on which we all draw. \"I can't believe I ate the whole thing,\" became a nationally repeated phrase, so too and even more quickly did, \"Try it, you'll like it,\" perhaps because there were so many spurious things that we could try and like and find that we were thinking we were gonna die. And surely it doesn't push the analysis too far to see Mikey trying it as related to Alka-Seltzer's admonition to, \"Try it, you'll like it.\" Thus Jonathan Winters recreates, or recreates, his familiar patterns and characters for various commercials, the Pillsbury Doughboy becomes Mr. Bill, commercials draw on all the traditions of entertainment from both form and content. We laugh in part at the explicit humor and imparted our pleasant recognition when we see a parody of Bogart in a truck commercial or a flashy musical comedy renditions selling pantyhose. And notice too how these presentations draw from every aspect of human experience, from religion, family structure, politics, adventure, romance. At this point, we've covered a good bit of ground with regard to humor around television and in some specific parts of it, and I've dealt with these areas first to deliberately demonstrate the breadth of the subject. I didn't realize the breadth of the subject until after I had decided and accepted the invitation to talk on it and tried to start writing some things down. TV is not just what is on the receiver's set, but is central to the culture at large, not to know about the humor of television is at this point to be removed in some way, for good or ill, from mainstream American culture. We can now turn to the regular program schedule for more specific analysis, but the problem of the range of TV humor is hardly diminished by this. Consider first the humor that is present if we think of television merely as a transmission device, that is as a vehicle for other forms of humor. We are allowed to see great comic productions that originated for the theater. We can view Shakespeare, Moliere, Kaufman, true in some sense these productions are adapted, the use of the camera and studio techniques gives us a different experience of the artifact, but for the most part, we are not dealing with what I think of as pure television humor here. The same could be said of most stand-up comedians, despite our familiarity with Hope, or Burns, or Benny, or Alan King as TV personalities, their tradition in American humor is the tradition of vaudeville, the nightclub, the tradition of radio, just as we can trace the decline of vaudeville to the rise of movie theaters, and can establish the maintenance of some of the great vaudeville routines in their adaptation for film, so we can relate the shift in film content and the virtual reinvention of radio to the rise of television. It eats content, every form is appropriate in some way to transmission, the circus comes not to town but to my living room. And the history of television humor will eventually have to deal with all of this, but it's when we move to the complete absorptions and adaptation of these traditions that we come fully to appreciate the humor of television. Consider for an opening sample how, \"The Tonight Show,\" with Johnny Carson is for millions and millions of people the end of an imperfect day. Johnny and his guest banter and exchange jokes with one another, as we are admitted to an intimate world where humor is the norm and the goal, while the monologue is strongly in the tradition of the nightclub performance, a style we should note that's not familiar to large numbers of Americans because of moral or social prohibitions, the rest of the show is a television innovation. The task is there, under the cloak of serious dialogue, to see who can be most outrageous, who with a can of shaving cream or with strenuous ripping of pockets and sleeves are merely with a quicker improvisational wit, top the master comic, who can make Johnny laugh, and in doing so lose control of himself and of his show? Everywhere we turn in the world of television we are inundated with such humorous inventions, the shows that were shown earlier today, the blurry fuzzy kinescope record of Sid Caesar's ensemble of genius gives us one guideline into this work. These talents spread into other shows, \"The Dick Van Dyke Show,\" for example, and into the monologues of Carson and other late night comics, Carl Reiner still produces hilarious shows, Mel Brooks, of course, came out of that same group of people. The great Milton Berle gives us another direction, Lucy with all the strained sometime embarrassing humor of the half-wit who could outwit us all provides in the eternal world of reruns many moments of comic delight. Carol Burnett with hilarious skits, which are often about TV, carries on that tradition. Any list of situation comedies, of domestic comedies, would take us from now until midnight, and each of us could call up not merely favorite shows, but favorite episodes of shows and even favorite expressions and bits of comic business that favorite actors and actresses performed for us. Our latest flowering of television humor has been in forms especially appreciated, I think, by young adults, the small worlds of, \"Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman,\" \"Real people,\" and, \"Saturday Night Live,\" are not the gentle reassuring comic worlds that I grew up with, nor even the strangely challenging comedies of the mid-60s, they are new forms, wonderfully familiar to those who have grown up with television and they remind me in many ways of the exceptional visual comedy of somebody like Ernie Kovacs, a genius with the medium itself, who did in visual form what so many people have had to work out in conceptual form. And I can't continue a list without touching on cartoons, because I think that children watch adventure show cartoons, but the humor that's reserved for the adults is in the comic cartoons, \"Rocky and Bullwinkle,\" \"The Pink Panther,\" \"George of the Jungle,\" with Odie Cologne, all of these gave adults an appropriate pretense with which to join their children on Saturday morning. And now, with, \"The Muppets,\" we have the same sort of comic mix, a visual feast, a marvelous sense of timing, the comic touch that tells us something of what it is to be human without bogging us down in the mundane details of the state. Now, I could stop here, and if I did, we would all be left with our own memories of television, with a set of mind's eye images that might push us into some sort of clearer personal sense of television history. Indeed, one side of the examination of television will always stop there, with the personal private memories, because television is in many important ways an intensely private sort of experience, but there's another side that is, for me, far more important, so I won't stop. I've alluded to it in indicating very slightly how television touches our life as a society, brings into question and highlights some of our shared beliefs and attitudes, from this perspective, television is important for us precisely because it is a collective, as well as a private experience. This talk would mean nothing if you could not share with me and with one another a mutual sense of the meaning of the tiny collection of images I've asked you to recall, television is our national medium. At one level, this means merely that we all know it and talk about it, that it is one of the few things that is repeatable and familiar to all of us no matter where we go. The fact that 2/3 of the television sets in America were tuned to the Super Bowl last Sunday is important. We are connected, just as we have always been connected, by some similar national medium. In the past, it has been radio or the great Hollywood movies of the 30s and 40s, or those two things in connection with one another, we've had national picture magazines and important national newspapers, and now we have television. I think that we will always have a necessity for a national medium of communication. And then since we're now embarking on a period of fragmentation, of technological fragmentation, I'm concerned about what will replace network television, which is now, I think, in its final throes, to give us a sense of the national connected sense of communication. We've had national media throughout the society, I think, because we are a society too often fragmented by regionalism, ethnicity, age, sex, income, and we need a connection of this sort, but I'm concerned here with a more powerful sort of collectivity, I'm concerned with culture itself as a system of sharing, of connected, intertwined beliefs and values. We are a true culture to the extent that we can share these things in action, and I will argue that television is crucial to that process. In my view, television is more than the national medium for mutual information and shared surface knowledge, it is the central symbol system in American culture, it is not a reflection of our worlds of experience, nor does it cause, in any immediate way, behavioral actions, except in unusual and aberrant cases. Television specifically, popular culture more broadly, and all the expressive forms of the arts generally serve as commentary on our worlds, our lives, our choices and actions. In the terms of anthropologist Victor Turner, these expressive forms are like rituals in preliterate societies. These are the ways in which we learn about ourselves, we affirm our most cherished notions with these forms, and surely we can all turn to some forms of television comedy and understand that sort of affirmation. Particularly in our gentle stories of domestic life, we find traditional American values of mutual respect, of support for the individual, of warmth and love upheld. We should note, of course, that we also find there the affirmation of traditional sex roles, racial identity and class distinction. What this indicates is that both good and bad are upheld and affirmed in our culture, and that are most common forms of entertainment will generally express both intention in controversy and in contradiction. But we should also be familiar with those forms that challenge the conventional notions, we should notice that they too call both the bad and the good into question so that while we find conventional attitudes toward authority challenged in some of the new comedies, we also find some of the old virtues going by the board. In effect, television is something of a parallel world, a mirror world, but the mirror is not a true mirror, it is distorted by our wishes and our dreams, our fears and our fantasies, it is the way we wish for things to be and the way we fear they may turn out. We enter that parallel world at will, with the turn of a knob or a pushed button, almost every evening, we enter some part of it at some time, we think of it as simple, but the world of television is as contradictory, as confused, as mixed, as is our world of experience. We make our way through it because we are familiar with the forms of television, but those forms are like vessels holding multiple images of life and what we wish to think of it. The familiar forms make it possible for us to laugh at what would be disturbing in other expressions, they make it possible for us to deal with overwhelming questions of violence and sexuality, because we know that the problem will be solved, that the mystery will be clarified in the form. And with these veiled commentaries in mind, we return to the world of work, play, experience the world of real life. You may see here the larger implication of the title of my comments, for me, television is the eye in the mind of America. It's not the primitive superficial eye that some primitive superficial critics of the medium would like it to be, it is a sharp eye, a powerful eye, it is the eye that brings transformed images into our cultural, collective, shared experience, and it is of the images of humor in this eye that I now wish to speak. We've had to come this far, with surveys and memories, with jokes and illusions, with the conventional attitudes toward television in order to see it in some, only some, of its enormous complexity. I want to deal then with a very few explicit comic images in order to elaborate this view. But before I do that, I wanna call up just a few more of the thinner sorts of images by way of transition. There are two places where I think it somewhat strange to find humor in television, one I find strange because the recent appearance of humor there has been counter to a long tradition of deadly seriousness, I refer to humor in soap operas. Now, I've always argued that soaps are the best things on TV, that they take full account of the appropriate use of time and continuous programming. With soaps, we get a much more complete sense of life because we do not see endings anymore than we see endings in our own lives. Television, because it matches lived experiences in some ways, is exceptionally suited to deeply convoluted continuous forms, as the rise in the use of miniseries has showed us. But in spite of the formal excellence of soaps, I've always been troubled by the lack of humor that's there. Now, suddenly, in the one soap that I follow, \"Another World,\" some comic characters have been introduced, and though I like them as characters very much, appreciate their presence, I find them very disconcerting. When Vivian, the maid, note again, the tradition of comic servants in American humor, appears with her strange speech patterns, her doltish look, her galloping stride down the hall, I'm taken aback by this world. I was especially troubled when Vivian was held captive with Iris, her employer, by a crazed murderer, but there I did realize that funny people get into trouble too, that there is a sense in which the comic and the truly serious must always come together. And this brings me to the second transitional image, for it has always been a part of our television heritage that these two forms are mixed in crime adventure shows. The pilot episode of, \"Dragnet,\" is as much a comedy as it is a crime show, and in our rush to condemn that show for its serious attention to maintaining an authoritarian stance, we've often overlooked the incredible range of humor that's present in, \"Dragnet.\" Indeed, in spite of Jack Webb's comments to the contrary, I think it's almost possible to see the show as a parody of police work rather than as the serious representation he seriously intended. Note too that his seriousness rose from a desire to counter the traditional pop culture image of detectives, as he put it, \"With a bottle of whiskey in their sock \"and a gun in the desk drawer.\" He thought that these were silly and that his production would correct the older view, and he thought that by including humor in it, he would give the impression of policemen as real people. And it's part of this silly view now that I wanna talk about briefly. You remember, \"Perry Mason,\" the opening and closing of the show's formula work in an amazing manner to frame the events between them. The opening shots on, \"Perry Mason,\" were always of the victim at the moment of death, looking full into the camera as into the eyes of a murderer. Now, the use of that subjective camera which makes us the murderer there is an interesting cultural comment too, I think. But there the victim expresses absolute terror at the knowledge of certain death. From that point, we move through the search for clues and into the final courtroom scene. Following the successful conclusion of the case, we are brought together with Mason, his associates and his grateful client. Perry explains the case, and then as the camera pulls away, the table of happy people usually erupts into laughter. Sometimes it's laughter of relief, but, at times, it's also the fact that someone in the group makes a joke and they sit there laughing after all of the horrendous events of the murder story. Now, this same pattern is the one that continues into more contemporary police productions, \"Starsky and Hutch,\" \"Kojak,\" \"Beretta,\" all of these and more like them are as much parody as adventure. Their humorous characters, the events and attitudes call up again and again the mixture of comedy and seriousness on television. What they say to us is that comedy is indeed a part of life, it appears irreverently in our most serious moments, it even appears for very special reasons, I think, in moments of tragedy and death. Think then as specifically as possible of the following television scenes, I think they act as powerful symbols, staying with us for a very long time and acting on us in ways we do not fully understand. In the newsroom, Mary Richards hears the appalling news, Chuckles the Clown has been accidentally killed, \"How did it happen?\" asked good-hearted, ultimately sincere Mary. Chuckles, she learned, dressed as a giant peanut, was trampled to death by a hunger-crazed elephant. Now, Lou and Murray find this incredibly funny, and when Ted enters he too makes jokes and adds to the laughter. Mary, however, thinks that they are not only behaving in poor taste, but that they are dishonoring the memory of Chuckles. \"Not so,\" says Lou, \"this is a truly funny event \"somehow very appropriate for a clown,\" but Mary remains unconvinced, and because she's the only one who can keep a straight face, who is assured that a tragedy has occurred, she's chosen to give the eulogy. You know I'm sure what happens, as Mary reads all of the wonderful comic stories about Chuckles, she begins to snicker, she suppresses her laughter and tries to go on in her best stoic fashion. It bubbles up again, and finally there, in the seriously decorated funeral parlor with rows of sedate relatives and friends before her, Mary Richards doubles over into total riotous laughter. The funeral attenders share the laughter with her. The room becomes a barrel of belly laughs, and for us, the audience, the humor is then complete. It is not merely that the idea of the peanut-clad clown is in itself funny, or that the death somehow seems hilariously exactly proper, but that the serious nature of life itself is questioned. Mary's early attitude is out of order, and when she finally succumbs to what is right, we are relieved. There is a kind of honor that is paid, not only to Chuckles or to, \"The Mary Tyler Moore Show,\" the honor is paid to the idea of humor, the notion of clowning, the function of laughter itself, the show turns in on itself and we find ourselves reduced, literally in my case, to tears of laughter. There are two scenes from, \"All in the Family,\" that I can parallel to this one, though there are many more where the idea I'm trying to elaborate, the idea of the powerfully serious nature of laughter could be exemplified. The first occurred several years ago, and I've recorded it before. In a marvelous case of mistaken identity, an anti-Semitic group paints a swastika on Archie Bunker's door, that, of course, begins the laughter. It's compounded when a member of a militant Jewish group comes to Archie's house and volunteers to defend him. There's a wonderful exchange of ethnic sneers as Archie meets one of those characters who's as strong as he is, who gives as much as he gets. In the final scenes, Archie makes it clear that he wants none of the defense that is offered, but it is also clear to us that Archie has come to like this young man very much, perhaps because of the strength he finds there, this man, like Archie, knows what he believes in, but also like Archie, knows that it is unacceptable to many people, knows that he is somehow under siege as Archie always is. They shake hands warmly and the young man leaves the house, and we hear an enormous explosion. Expecting a joke, we see the faces of the Bunker family framed in the doorway of their house and we here Archie say, \"My God, it's Paul, \"they blew him up in his car,\" and we freeze the frame and the titles roll over the faces of those horror stricken. Edith, as usual, begins to make sure that the particulars of life are attended to, she makes the necessary calls and so on. In the meantime, Archie has walked out onto his front porch. Edith comes out to him and asks if he's all right. He shivers visibly and says, \"Yeah, I'm cold.\" I know that it is not the cold of the autumn night in Queens that chills him, rather it is the cold grip that touches all of us when we wake in the middle of the night, our pause too long in the midst of an active day, when we realize that we too are mortal. Again, the show closes without laughter, but it is in the contextual nature of comedy that I wish to make my point. These death scenes occur wrapped in the warmth of humor and are made somehow more stark for it. We see more clearly the nature of death when it is presented to us in this way, all of us have such images in our mind's eye, and all of us are collectively related to some of the images that I've discussed here, or others, we can talk about the man who drowned in his chicken soup while Mary Hartman and her friend go on discussing the mundane affairs of the day, we can remember Mork's discovery of death when he had to pull the plug on an aging, rusting robot, but I think that the most powerful continuing image of the sort that I'm asking you to dwell on tonight occurs in, \"MASH.\" Here, of course, comedy is taken to the heart of tragedy, to the ugliest aspects of human existence, it is not merely that war provides the context here, the shooting part of the war, it is the way in which war, as event, as idea, brutalizes the meaning of life. It is in the sense of making do with short supplies that we might find are most apt metaphor for all of life in this show. It is in the sense of selfishness that so often crops up in villains on the show. It is in the contrasting sense of family, the shared experience of horrendous circumstances of a vision that is mutual to the members of the community that we find this sense. From this production, I want to use two examples, the first is the famous one, the death of Henry Blake. I'm sure you remember the way in which the group celebrated with him, rejoiced in his reprieve from the world of death, destruction and comic insanity, and following that, we find the, \"MASH,\" community hard at work in the operating arena, the real center of the show. Radar walks numbly into their midst, Hawkeye reprimands him for not wearing a surgical mask, and Radar reads the telegram informing them that Blake's plane is lost and all are dead. There are two special aspects to this example, one is that the death occurs on the way back to what might appropriately be considered the world of real life. Blake, like most members of, \"MASH,\" has a family and a community to return to, as well as one to leave. The one that is stateside is considered truly home, the one here is defined by craziness, by upside-down-ness, but somehow he's not allowed to leave this community. The second aspect is that this event was widely publicized before it occurred, the producers of the show chose to call attention to it, to make much of the fact that they were offering us a new kind of natural ending for the life of a character. In this way, they heightened our sense of the ways in which, \"MASH,\" is lifelike, but really there was no need for them to do that. For one thing, most of those who watched the show are quite aware of that relationship, but for a more important thing, that calling attention to the event made it somehow more artificial, more the choice of artists than the choice that might have been made in life itself. The second episode that I want to highlight did not make that mistake. This too was the story of a leave-taking, the departure of Radar from the cast this past fall. Again, you may remember the sense of rejoicing that went on, even though Radar is not sure of himself, is not quite convinced that he wants to leave the unit, he knows that he must, and more than that, he knows that it's a kind of development for him, a step ahead. In the course of the show, much has been made of the symbol of the salute, of the way in which, when properly, truly performed, it is a means of honoring an individual rather than a mere formality. Well, the rejoicing is ended when wounded men are brought, as they must always be brought, to the hospital. Everyone rushes out to work, the cake is left on the table, Radar is already symbolically removed from his friends because he wears his dress uniform. In the final moments, he goes to the door of the operating arena, and he looks through the small plastic window that's there. Hawkeye, hard at work over a wounded man, looks up and sees him peering through that small opening. In a gesture filled with honor, he raises his hand in salute, and it is returned by Radar. Now, the gesture itself is important, crucial within the specific context of this episode, but the symbol is far richer than that, for it refers us back into the entire context of the show into what all this really means. The solute is performed as Hawkeye raises his bloody surgical glove to touch his forehead. No honor here without the recognition of death, recognition of what all this humor means, how all this laughter is placed in a life-defining context. And, \"MASH,\" is simply another microcosm for television at large, perhaps one of the very best, but simply a microcosm. If TV is truly something of another world that shows us what we desire to be, what we might be, how we fail, how silly we sometimes look, shows us the depth of our prejudices, the dishonor of our power structures, then it is only natural that some part of that life must mix laughter and death. It must mix laughter with family and violence, it must mix laughter with sex and childishness, it has to do this because laughter is life-affirming, it is not the cynic's sneer, it is not even the ironness horse laugh, the view that life is all a joke and we must merely make the best of it. Laughter is the source of our conviction, that even in the face of death, life is more important, that we will get on, that things are worth staying around for. On the one hand, this means that comedy on television is no different from comedy in any other medium, and I was struck by the fact that Mr. Gill's comments last night were saying many of the things that I had so artfully prepared to say this evening. But I think it's important to note that in his discussion of Beckett's humor, he is talking about the kind of very private experience that comes largely to the few and to those who can appreciate and who are trained and taught to appreciate a certain kind of ironic life-affirming humor in the face of the inevitability of death, whereas with television we deal with the most public forms, the most widely shared forms that we can all experience. On the other hand then, the pervasiveness of television comedy, the fact that it appears in all other television contexts, from crime to family shows, is a kind of cultural affirmation, rather than an individual one. It is indeed with this cultural mind's eye that we see clearly, albeit in a delightfully unconscious way, what we truly are and must continue to be. Perhaps the best comment on television comedy might go like this, \"What's on tonight?\" \"Life.\" \"Is that a new show?\" \"No, not really.\" \"Any good?\" \"It's hard to say unless you give me \"your critical definitions \"for aesthetic excellence, \"and I'm not too interested in them, \"but I'll tell you one thing.\" \"What's that?\" \"It's really hilarious.\" Thank you.","format":"text/plain"},"target":"https://iastate.aviaryplatform.com/collections/1150/collection_resources/43888/file/116955#t=0.0,2503.18367"}]}]}]}
