摘要:This article is a production study of two talk shows for the Danish television channel, TV2Charlie: Meyerheim’s Talk Show (2006-) and Cecilie’s Book Show (2015-). TV2 Charlie is aniche channel (part of the TV2 network) that set out to target a mature and elderly audiencewhen it started in 2004. The aim is to bring together mediatization research with productionstudies and cultural gerontology, and I argue that media logic is a useful analyticalconcept that allows us to describe production processes in concrete ways and, at the sametime, understand the context-specific ways in which media play a role in societal changes.Thus, through a logic of operationalising conviviality at the channel level, the productionlevel and the programme level, the programmes contribute to perceptions of ageingandold age that emphasise an increased need for stability and safety, on one hand, and a desirefor feel-good moments, on the other. Furthermore, the programmes promote positive andactive ageing in some instances while keeping old age invisible in other instances
