Choose a television show that is based on a family or on family life. You only need to watch one episode. It can be a sitcom, a drama, a reality show, a cartoon—the choice is yours. The only requirement is that it centers on or around family life. Provide a brief description of the show and a summary of the episode. How does the show portray mothers? How does the show portray fathers? What assumptions does the show make about gender and parenting? Does it support or contradict the material presented in this course (commentary and readings)? Why? How? Name the specific books, articles, or commentaries that you are applying to the television program.
