Produktbeschreibung
A highly anticipated examination of the cultural impact of a reimagined fan-favorite P.I. series. This popular television show centering the cynical, fallible, and likeable private investigator Jim Rockford finally receives its due attention in this book. Combining social analysis with close televisual analysis, scholar Amanda Keeler illustrates how this 1970s series reimagined the P.I. genre through its novel characters, diverse creative team, and attention to contemporary social issues. Keeler also highlights the contributions of the show's writers--including women writing in a male-dominated TV industry--who left their mark on the series and fostered the unique feel that resonated with audiences throughout its time on air, in later film reunions, and beyond.
