criminal minds season 11 ep 11
in this ep you can see the irony when kat Adams and spencer Reid goes on a date at the start of the ep this is irony because its the opposite of it. they aren't actually on a date spencer the FBI agent is trying to get the unsub Kat Adams who is a serial killer. this can be called an situational irony.
homage can be seen in this ep because for me I find that kat Adams is inspirational to because she is a female serial killer who I loved plus she crazy but I also find that spencer Reid is inspirational because he is taking down a serial killer which is amazing and he was going undercover but soon got discover by kat which I loved.
loss of reality can been seen in this episode in criminal minds because it really intense when kat knows Reid was an agent and when she knows that his team was in the restaurant, she knew everything about the team and it make you lose reality of what's going on around you cause you are wondering what's going to happen making and you forget that the tv shows is not reality.

greys anatomy season 5 episode 6
identity: In this episode of greys anatomy identity can be shown with the two female characters Callie Torres {sara Ramirez} and Erica Hahn {Brooke smith} exploring there sexuality and identity. The audience might identity with them because they might also be confused about their own sexuality. For example Callie Torres is the best representation for this as she is very confused because she likes both male and female, yet she doesn't know what she is until later one. She simply goes along with whatever and explore her sexuality which then leads to her being bisexual. This helps the audience to understand themselves more and can be relatable for them. Also make them understand that its okay to like both genders even if your unsure.
gender: Gender can be shown in this episode in greys anatomy with erica Hahn as she the opposite of the female stereotype. When she talking to a Doctor she is insensitive about helping a patient who has an inoperable tumour, she doesn't care to even try and help {she does end up helping} she not a gentle person and does not care for others feelings. she is more dominate and logical, which is not the stereotype of a female. Derek Shepherd {Patrick Dempsey} is another good person to represent gender {not in this episode as much} He is a independent neurosurgery meaning he is successful, he is the stereotype of a male. His nickname in the show is 'mcdreamy' meaning he is known to be charming and good looking with good hair , He is tough and can be insensitive to other people feelings especially his wifes sometime. In this episode you could kind of see his dominance when he is in the OR with a patience and with two another doctors, he order and sort of yelled at one of them.
IRON MAN:
butler: tony stark is the stereotype of a male. He is a playboy billionaire, who likes to drink, party and is successful. He tends to have casual relationships with with females. this links to the idea of butler theory of how genders role are portrait for males. He is seem to be overconfident and arrogant, he believes he can handle any situation. however later on he has character development and uses his ability for the greater good,. for example in the binging of the film he is in the tank (whatever it call) drinking what seems to be whisky which helps shows he like to drink. even in his luxurious mansion at the bringing he partying with attractive females around him which is showcasing his wealthiness and him being a stereotypical playboy rich man. however later on he gets out of those habits and starts to take respolitity.
van zooner: in the bringing there a female airman, she is being seen as someone who is to pretty to be in the army you can see that in the dialog when tony stark says he 'excellent bone structure' meaning that because she has a good face structure its sounds like he saying you are to pretty to be in the army. he then conutines to say he cant look away from her, which then made all the others male characters laugh. in a way this is seen as the female being used as an object but with dialog instand of clothing. In in party scenes you can see that the women are dressed up in glamour sand realving dresses, these scence can be seen as them being objects and there just to be pretty. Another example is the reporter Christine Everhart, her hair is down and looks beautiful, she is wearing a shirt that has a few buttons undone which indicates her beauty. the person who holding the car door called her cute, so then tony turned around and spoke to her this is showig that if she wasnt he woulnt have spoke to her, its forcues on her physical appearance longer then it should. this links to van zooner theory of women being seen as sexual objects.
Levi Strauss theory
HARRY POTTER:
Harry potter has captivated the hearts and minds of their audience by representing them the good and evil. Beyond the magic, witch's and wizard and other magical things it has shared a deeper meaning of good and evil. An example of the good and evil is shown by the three headed dogs. In the close up shot of there faces, you can see that they have large teeth, and look ready to attack them. The three headed dogs were shown to be evil as it attack Harry, Hermione and Ron. In the low angle shot, its show the three headed dogs to be more powerful then the three characters, as the dogs are larger then them. However the dogs aren't necessary evil, but are good. The three headed dogs were protecting the a trapdoor. They were doing their job. This is in a way foreshadowing what is so important about the trap door. In this good is being topped by evil. This links back to Levi Strauss theory of the things such as good and bad being the binary opposite. During the time of the production, Harry potter came out during culture and social change. The book had timeless theme such as friendship, bravery, and the battle between the good and the evil which related to the readers/viewers at the time who were facing with the changes of the world changes like we are today. Harry potter shows good and evil, and other ranges of things in the end.
