SUMMARY

'œThose who despise the aridity and triviality of literary criticism should turn for inspiration to this collection of useful and well-written essays on 19 different TV genres. Each essay traces the genesis and history of a different fictional or realistic genre (e.g., the police show, the game show, the talk show, children's programming) and discusses aesthetic, psychological, and social issues. The essays are videographic, and describe a large number of examples within each genre. Each essay includes a full bibliographic survey of secondary print sources, and a short videography giving more detailed broadcast history information for some principal examples of the genre.... This book fills a need. It will be used by scholars and revered by undergraduates doing papers. It is a highly desirable acquisition for libraries of all types.'' ChoiceBrian Geoffrey Rose is the author of 'TV Genres: A Handbook and Reference Guide', published 1985 under ISBN 9780313237249 and ISBN 0313237247.
