Television Drama: Agency, Audience and Myth Summary
| This book is the first specifically about television drama from within a cultural studies perspective and as such examines the active agency of both viewers and media practitioners. The author examines dominant and counter-myths as they circulate in popular culture, discussing soap opera, science fiction, sitcom, cop series and ''authored'' drama among its examples. It works within an ethnographic framework; he looks in detail at both the production and reception of TV drama. The overall aim of the book is to examine television representation as part of a historically positioned and differentiated social formation in which knowledgeable actors work in every institutional arena (whether media industry, academia or domestic household) to make their meanings. |
