HBOs Original Voices

This book constitutes the first major exploration of HBOs current programming, examined in the context of the transformation of American television and global society. With studies of well-known shows such as Game of Thrones, Girls, Insecure, Looking, The Comeback, The Leftovers, True Detective, Silicon Valley, Veep and Vinyl, authors examine the content of the latest HBO shows, considering various stages of the televisual experience, including creation, consumption and the spaces in between.

Interdisciplinary and international in scope, HBOs Original Voices explores the sociocultural and political role and impact that HBOs current shows have held and the ways in which it has translated and reinterpreted social discourses into its own televisual language. A significant intervention in television studies, media studies and cultural studies, this book illuminates the emergence of a new era of culturally relevant television that fans, students and researchers will find lively, accessible and fascinating.

Dr Victoria McCollum is a Lecturer in Cinematic Arts, in the School of Arts and Humanities, at Ulster University (Northern Ireland). Her most recent research examines how horror films, including some of its most transgressive subgenres, deal with memory, ideology, and the often-competing claims of nationalism, American exceptionalism and cultural sorrow. She is currently working on a new edited collection entitled, Make America Hate Again: Trump-Era Horror and the Politics of Fear.

Dr Giuliana Monteverde is a Lecturer in Media Studies, in the School of Communication and Media, at Ulster University (Northern Ireland). Her doctoral research was concerned with representations of complicity in contemporary feminist discourse, looking at, amongst others, Sheryl Sandberg, Miley Cyrus, and the Kardashians. Giuliana contributed a chapter to Complicity: Concepts and Case Studies (Rowman and Littlefield, 2016), and has published articles in The Journal of International Womens Studies and Critical Studies in Fashion & Beauty. She recently wrote about Revenge Body with Khlo Kardashian for an upcoming handbook on postfeminism, and is researching The Handmaids Tale.
