Unlike their traditional counterparts, contemporary TV antiheroes are becoming increasingly non-empathetic. Despite their dislikable qualities, they succeed in attracting audiences. I consider two factors that may be influencing their popularity. The first involves viewers’ increasing familiarity with storytelling techniques and their resulting gravitation towards narratives capable of challenging their story schemas. The second aspect concerns the entertainment industry’s transformations. Aware of their well-watched audiences’ expectations, studios are turning to novelists to pursue more defamiliarizing forms. I discuss The Assassination of Gianni Versace (2018) as an example of a series that experiments with viewers’ affective responses towards its sociopathic protagonist. I argue that the writer’s choices extricate Versace from the formulaic justice-is-served narrative, thus appealing to those consumers additionally motivated by, what researchers call, eudaemonic concerns.

Over the past few years, notable advancements have been made through the adoption of self-attention mechanisms and perceptual optimization, which have proven to be successful techniques in enhancing the overall quality of image reconstruction. Self-attention mechanisms in Vision Transformers have been widely used in neural networks to capture long-range dependencies in image data, while perceptual optimization has been shown to enhance the perceptual quality of reconstructed images. In this paper, we present a novel approach to image reconstruction by bridging the capabilities of Vision Transformer and Perceptual Compressive Sensing Networks. Specifically, we use a self-attention mechanism to capture the global context of the image and guide the sampling process, while optimizing the perceptual quality of the sampled image using a pre-trained perceptual loss function. Our experiments demonstrate that our proposed approach outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods in terms of reconstruction quality and achieves visually pleasing results. Overall, our work contributes to the development of efficient and effective techniques for image sampling and reconstruction, which have potential applications in a wide range of domains, including medical imaging and video processing.
