Summary: This key textbook on television genre brings together leading international scholars to provide an introduction to the debates, issues and concerns of the field.

The Television Genre Book has expanded to reflect the ways in which TV has altered radically in recent years, particularly with the arrival of online streaming services such as Netflix, Disney+, HBO Max and Amazon Prime."-- Provided by publisher
