A scene and a fixed group of individuals are the starting point for a sitcom, a roughly half-hour, comedic television series. In his essay “TV sitcoms and Gender” Roy Stafford covers the gender representation in American and Anglo-Saxon sitcoms.
Also, he compares the production and distribution paths, narrative structures, locations, cast the roles and the formation of specific types of role. He concludes by noting that sitcoms are nowadays much more for a specific target audience and must be tailored to a niche for the private television that occupy them.
