My Name is Earl - Representation of gender

These are two clips from the TV Show 'My Name is Earl'. The episode is a unique episode as it uses the original introduction used in the program for each of the characters. I used the introduction for the characters Randy Hickey and Joy Hickey because it shows how the representation of genders differs between each character. Joy's character is represented as being very attractive and appealing to the audience. She is shows this way through the use of revealing costumes and also props such as the truck used in the clip above. Randy is shown as being rather stupid and unreliable. His stance is very childish because his arms are by his side and he's very unobservant and dopey.
