Deadline: open
ABOUT TV SHORTS: TV Shorts provides a unique online space for
television scholars, critics, students and fans to present new
research and/or initiate critical debate on contemporary television
with a specific focus on fictions made for the small screen.
Distinct about TV Shorts, with its open deadline, quick turnaround
and immediate posting, is that it seeks to engage with the
television zeitgeist, to take the pulse of contemporary culture as
it were, while locating new ways of thinking and writing about
television.
TV Shorts aims to establish an intellectual space where new voices
are heard and fresh perspectives offered. It will train attention on
pioneering areas of research and groundbreaking critical approaches
to contemporary television fiction, generating lively debate as well
as providing an intellectual and creative platform for thinking
differently and ingeniously responding to contemporary television
culture. Innovation is encouraged, intellectual curiosity demanded
and difference expected.
