内容提要:
This volume offers a perspective on the status of representations of a new kind of female character who emerged on the scene on US television in the mid-2000s, that of the anti-heroine. Looking at the cable channels Showtime and HBO, as well as Netflix and ABC Television, this volume examines a range of recent television women and shows, including Homeland, Weeds, Scandal, How to Get Away With Murder, Veep, Girls, and Orange is the New Black as well as a host of other nighttime programs to demonstrate just how dominant the anti-heroine has become on US television. It examines how the figure has arisen within the larger context of the turn towards Quality Television, that has itself been viewed as part of the post-network era or the Third Golden Age of television where new forms of broadcast delivery have created a marketing incentive to deliver more compelling characters to niche audiences.
