- This monograph (pp. 279; 110,000 words) covers the history of a hitherto unexplored genre of television drama in Britain and America covering the period from the mid-1950s to the early twenty-first century. It documents the production and reception histories and analyses the social and cultural politics of drama series and stand-alone productions from a wide range of different production contexts and ecologies. The research is based on extensive viewing and analysis, approximately 600 hours of episodic television and around 40 feature-length television films.
