As with film, genre is central to the industry and visual form that is television. This book provides an introduction to the subject's core debates, issues and concerns. It is divided into eight sections which include: what is genre?; popular entertainment; children's television; and drama.
As part of a 'Television Studies' module undertaken while studying for a Masters Degree, one of my two essays which made-up the entirety of the gradings for the 'Television Studies' module, was based on an extract from this 2001 academic book. Thorough, valuable and extremely well researched, this is the perfect book for researching topics on television genres and for understanding a history of television from its broadcast establishment in 1928. Get it.
