A list with

1

3

Average ratings and votes for each season

Examples

Cooccurrence Plots

Description

A network showing how frequently Cartman, Stan, Kyle and Kenny speak in the same episodes across the selected seasons. Nodes represent characters, displayed using their images. Connections are undirected, with widths and labels showing Jaccard similarity: the number of episodes containing both characters divided by the number containing either character. Higher values indicate greater co-occurrence. Shared episodes do not necessarily indicate direct interaction.

Usage

Cooccurrence_Plots

Format

An object of class ggraph (inherits from ggplot2::ggplot, ggplot, ggplot2::gg, S7_object, gg) of length 1.

Examples

length(Cooccurrence_Plots)

Friends Sentiment Plots

Description

Three heatmaps summarising sentiment word rates for Cartman, Stan, Kyle and Kenny across seasons using the Bing, NRC and Loughran dictionaries. Columns represent seasons and rows represent characters. Green indicates a higher positive rate, red a higher negative rate, and white equal rates. Each tile displays the higher rate per 100 words spoken by that character in that season. Each dictionary has its own colour scale. Colour intensity represents the higher rate, rather than the difference between the two rates.

Usage

Friends_Sentiment_Plots

Format

An object of class patchwork (inherits from ggplot2::ggplot, ggplot, ggplot2::gg, S7_object, gg) of length 3.

Bars show the number of episodes with more positive than negative matches, or more negative than positive matches, read against the left-hand axis. Episodes with equal positive and negative counts are omitted from the bars.

Transition Plots

Description

A network showing speaking transitions between Cartman, Stan, Kyle and Kenny across the selected seasons. Nodes represent characters, displayed using their images. An arrow from A to B indicates that B speaks immediately after A within the same episode. Arrow widths and labels show the percentage of transitions from A to B, using all transitions from A to a different speaker as the denominator. Only connections between the four selected characters are displayed. Speaking order does not necessarily indicate whom a character addresses.
