About the book

Challenges the conventional view of television as lowbrow entertainment devoid of intellectual activity. Rather, Fagersten champions the use of fictional television to learn about linguistics and at the same time promotes enriched television viewing experiences by explaining the role of language in creating humour, conveying drama, and developing identifiable characters.
