Adaptable TV

This book focuses on the significantly under-explored relationship between televisual culture and adaptation studies in what is now commonly regarded as the ‘Golden Age’ of contemporary TV drama.  Adaptable TV: Rewiring the Text does not simply concentrate on traditional types of adaptation, such as reboots, remakes and sequels, but broadens the scope of enquiry to examine a diverse range of experimental adaptive types that are emerging within an ever-changing TV landscape.  With a particular focus on the serial narrative form, and with case studies that include Penny Dreadful , Fargo , The Night Of and Orange is the New Black , this study is essential reading for anyone who is interested in the complex interplay between television studies and adaptation studies.
