Cr�ticas:

"Television scholars of all stripes will find much that is interesting in this book Hodenberg blends thorough industrial history, textual analysis, and audience research in her examination of three iterations of a single television show...This book operates at the methodological intersection of cultural studies, social science, and television history, and the research is the better for it. This is a thoughtful work of television scholarship written in an accessible style...Highly recommended." * Choice

Rese�a del editor:

Television was one of the forces shaping the cultural revolution of the 1960s and 1970s, when a blockbuster TV series could reach up to a third of a country's population. This book explores television's impact on social change by comparing three sitcoms and their audiences. The shows in focus Till Death Us Do Part in Britain, All in the Family in the United States, and One Heart and One Soul in West Germany centered on a bigoted anti-hero and his family. Between 1966 and 1979 they saturated popular culture, and managed to accelerate as well as deradicalize value changes and collective attitudes regarding gender roles, sexuality, religion, and race.
