I love to read well-thought-out criticism of books, movies, and television that I enjoy, and Screwball Television offers many examples of that in its seventeen critical essays about Gilmore Girls. As with any collection, some pieces are better than others. The essays on portrayals of Asian American cultures, of literary culture, and of education were my favorites, while the the essays on masculinity and (especially) relationships and social control seemed to overreach. A very enjoyable read and while the essays mostly are academically rigorous, they are still fairly accessible. Recommended to Gilmore Girls or TV fans. ( ) sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Bringing together seventeen original essays by scholars from around the world, Screwball Television offers a variety of international perspectives on Gilmore Girls. Adored by fans and celebrated by critics for its sophisticated wordplay and compelling portrayal of a mother-daughter relationship, this contemporary American TV program finally gets its due as a cultural production unlike any other, one that is beholden to Hollywood's screwball comedies of the 1930s, steeped in intertextual references, and framed as a ""kinder, gentler kind of cult television series"" in this tightly focused yet wide-ranging collection. This volume makes a significant contribution to television studies, genre studies, and women's studies. Screwball Television seeks to bring Gilmore Girls more fully into academic discourse not only as a topic worthy of critical scrutiny but also as an infinitely rewarding text capable of stimulating the imagination of students beyond the classroom.
