These sitcoms challenged subjective producer's control of 1970s television. Focusing on these Black sitcoms, Scratchin' and Survivin' engages the intersections of performance, production, politics, and reception to consider how this array of Black sitcoms intervened in both the history of television and in a rearticulation of Black identity in the early 1970s. With close attention to race, socioeconomics, gender, and politics, the sitcoms of Tandem had their own distinct style in depicting Black American life on screen. What is rarely discussed in the history Tandem is the Black artist's (actors, writers, assistants, etc.) and the "hustle economics" they engaged in while becoming television auteurs within a space that wasn't built for them. "Hustle economics" exists as a negotiation of Black labor in front of and behind the screen. Indeed, the production of these sitcoms called for various forms of creative agency and labor resilience that transformed the television industry, and Scratchin' and Survivin' brings attention to the Black artists who were a part of these transformative acts"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 610 20 $a Tandem Productions $x History. 630 00 $a Sanford and son (Television program) 630 00 $a Good times (Television program) 630 00 $a Jeffersons (Television program) 630 07 $a Good times (Television program) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01783162 630 07 $a Jeffersons (Television program) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01367443 630 07 $a Sanford and son (Television program) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01378769 648 7 $a 1900-1999 $2 fast 650 0 $a African Americans on television. 650 0 $a Labor on television. 650 0 $a Situation comedies (Television programs) $z United States. 650 0 $a Television programs $z United States $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a African American actors $z United States. 650 0 $a African Americans in television broadcasting. 650 0 $a History. 650 7 $a African American actors $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00798998 650 7 $a African Americans in television broadcasting $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799736 650 7 $a African Americans on television $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799744 650 7 $a Situation comedies (Television programs) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01744318 650 7 $a Television programs $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01147026 651 7 $a United States $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a History $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231219012552.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=73D0B9649E3C11EE84E191EF36ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
