#2: This Statement Is Short.

Last week, we talked briefly about Seinfeld's self-referential nature, which we saw explicitly in "The Pitch" and in "The Ticket" when Jerry and George created and then pitched their "show about nothing" to NBC.

You can also see this notion at work in the title of this blog, "This statement is short," as the sentence is referring to itself as well as its length. Some of M.C. Escher's art (above) is also self-referential.

What other visual media, television shows or films, is self-referential or self-reflexive in nature? As always, be sure to provide examples to support your answer. Follow these instructions for the new way to post:

1. If you haven't already, "Sign In" (at the top of this page).
2. Then, click "New Post," also located at the top of this page or on your Dashboard (a green plus sign). By creating a New Post (rather than "Posting a Comment" as you did with Blog #1), you'll get your own page; you may include--if you want to--colorful fonts, images, links, and video clips to support your points; and finally, others may respond to your postings. It's not really a "discussion" if others, including me, cannot respond, is it?
3. Please create a catchy title for your posting with the appropriate number in front (e.g., #3: Curious George).
4. Finally, don't forget those "Rules for the Road": http://seinclass.blogspot.com/2008/01/rules-for-road.html!

NOTE: If you don't like this blog, try "Yep, You're Quite a Character," and create a New Post there.
