TV Series Become Part of Academia

hough belittled by academics for nearly 40 years — until Tcable became popular in the 1990s and the quality of U.S. televi- sion improved — television series have suddenly become an important part of university curricula in France. Academics are studying TV shows for their historical value, as well as what they can teach about sociology and even artistic merit. Academic interest in TV shows began about 30 years ago in the English-speaking world, but it only became popular in France about 10 years ago. Now, media specialists, historians, sociologists, philoso- phers and even literary critics are analyzing TV series as cultural works, using them to determine what they can show us about our current circumstances.

JAccording to NHK’s consultant for the region, Miyuki Nomura, the channel is finally being fully recog- nized by the Latin American Cable TV industry and already has an established distribution network, especially in territories where the Japanese population is concentrat- ed, such as Brazil and Peru. NHK World TV is a 24-hour English-language network for a worldwide audience presented in four-hour blocks, repeated six times a day.
