Produktbeschreibung
This edited collection examines a new phase in the creation of transnational high-end drama in television's current multiplatform era. Fuelled by the wider international exposure that internet distribution has brought to TV shows, this phase for high-end drama is one of unprecedented budgets and costs, frequent transnational coproduction and increased cultural diversification. While this drama continues to be facilitated by national broadcasters, fuelling the above trio of influences upon it has been the commissioning activity of multinational subscription-video-on-demand (SVoD) providers. This book showcases leading examples of transnational TV drama, produced outside the US, yet involving collaboration with US-owned SVoDs. It foregrounds some new potentials for drama creation in the context of its strategic importance to providers as different as national broadcasters and multinational SVoDs. This book helps to explain why today's high-end dramas are demonstrating new elements of cultural specificity despite their common objective to engage a diverse international audience.

Rezensionen
"The editors present a very well organised volume, including a rewarding number of heavily-researched chapters on shows from a diverse range of countries ... TV Drama in the Multiplatform Era a useful primer for studying the effects of transnationalism in recent drama. This book is accessible to students but will also be valuable to researchers in the field of co-productions and streaming providers." (Max Sexton, Critical Studies in Television, October 16, 2024)
