Television: The Critical View
This book is incredibly useful if, like me, you are trying to get a handle on the field of Television Studies: its composition, the divisions and debates, etc. It is to the point, packed full of info and surprisingly not dry. He makes terms that normally sound obscure and not very specific MAKE SENSE, giving the reader a sense of just what the fuck people mean when they say these things (can you tell this is something that has been frustrating me?).
The author's politics also seem right on and he finishes the book with a quite specific discussion of what new Television Studies should be composed of.
The bibliography is HUGE and probably contains everything ever written about television (maybe not, but it's close) so is a GREAT resource for further reading if you need to get into more detail.
Pretty sure this book just saved my ass (and a whole lot of time) for the lit review I'm doing on a couple television franchises, and also told me where I fit in the field. Highly recommend for anyone who needs/wants a primer/basic intro to the field of TV Studies.
