Yeah, they started out with a scene of the kid (who is x-tra cute) letting the dance teacher into their mansion -- "Daddy! The dancer is here!"

Jenkins is definitely emic. Sandvoss and Hills ... well, I haven't actually read Sandvoss. Hills is more like not-very-good emic analysis, to me. I mean he's sort of trying to do the participant observation thing, without actually participating. Unless I'm muddling him up with someone else.

You know who does a really good etic analysis? Constance Penley.
