Beginning and rise of the Czech docusoap
Košťálová, Soňa ; Kruml, Milan (advisor) ; Hroncová, Alexandra (referee)
Bachelor thesis "Beginnings and Expansion of the Czech docusoap" focuses on a young television genre "docusoap". After the first introductory chapter, the second chapter will present a brief history of television as a dynamic medium. The third chapter is focused on the concept of docusoap and its definition in the context of other genres. Fourth chapter, the practical part of the thesis, outlines the genre on commercial television stations in the US, which has a long tradition. I will try to analyze selected projects of implemented docusoap genre of television in the US. Other chapters present docusoap in Czech surroundings in both public and commercial television. Selected titles are differed in their themes and I will try to make an analysis of the selected formats. Eventually I`ll compare Czech docusoap with shows made in USA, where this genre is very well established.

As this text aims to show, Dvořák was strong in fine art and literary disciplines (wrote a number of librettos), as well as on the script-editing, programme presenting and acting sides, and all these artistic talents were sheltered with and maybe even shadowed by his organisational skills (completely unknown to the public) combined with enormous proactivity and high ambitions. During his presence at ČST Vladimír Dvořák created a TV entertainment development strategy that he worked on until his death. He was diplomatic and creative at the same time, and he introduced a number of very successful TV formats to feature many big names, at least those tolerated by the totalitarian regime. Vladimír Dvořák knew how to manoeuvre his way through the clearly demarcated world of communist TV broadcasting without having to make dirty compromises with the regime's officials. Moreover, although he...
