In my case, I had two sidekicks without whom this project would have never seen the light of day. Therefore, I would like to thank my thesis supervisor Toni Pape, whose feedback and kind advice was of great help. Thank you for helping me focus on the important and being challenging and supportive at the same time. I would also like to thank my wife, Daniela Salas, who has contributed with her useful insight, continuous encouragement and infinite patience, not only in the last months but in the whole master’s program. “Small Episodes, Big Detectives” 2 Contents Introduction ...................................................................................................................... 4 1.

  • Dexter – James Manos Jr
    Educación sentimental-televisiva La casualidad ha querido que encontrara el tiempo para escribir estas líneas pasando las vacaciones en una casa de campo del con- dado de Yorkshire, en el norte de Inglaterra, a escasas cinco millas del castillo de Howard. Esta mansión vecina se hizo popular en el siglo XX por alojar parte de la filmación de una película ilustre, Barry Lyndon, de Stanley Kubrick, y de una serie no menos distinguida: Retorno a Brideshead, la adaptación de Granada Television del libro homónimo de Evelyn Waugh que lanzó al estrellato a un joven Je- remy Irons. No es que hubiera escogido este destino vacacional en base a la proximidad de esta country house tricentenaria de la que guardo tan hondo recuerdo televisivo. Pero mentiría si dijera que no me alegré al conocer que la iba a tener tan a mano. De la misma manera que me complacería ir de vacaciones al estado de Washington, en Esta- dos Unidos, sabiendo que Snoqualmie y North Bend, los dos pue- blos en los que se rodaron los exteriores de Twin Peaks, están cerca, o viajaría a Gales con la ilusión de poder visitar en algún momento Portmeirion, la muy peculiar villa costera en la que se grabó El pri- sionero. Son todos ellos lugares que, gracias a las ficciones televisivas que durante un tiempo albergaron, dejaron algo dentro de mí; o quizá dejé yo algo dentro de ellos y ahora me gustaría saber de qué se trata. No sé. Tanto Twin Peaks como El prisionero aparecen seleccionadas por Quim Casas en la lista de 75 series que conforma este libro.

Se trata de una figura profesional que comen- zó a alcanzar relevancia en la década de los noventa y es uno de los elementos sobre los que se articula el actual reconocimiento crítico de las series de televi- sión. En primer lugar nos aproximaremos al concepto desde un punto de vista histórico, para luego analizar las atribuciones profesionales con las que cuenta y su relación con los discursos sobre series. Por último, a modo de conclusión, vere- mos cómo la figura del showrunner está empezando a alcanzar relevancia en otros países. Palabras clave: ficción televisiva; televisión en Estados Unidos; creatividad televisiva; guion televisivo; producción televisiva. Abstract: This paper deals with the current development of television fiction in the United States focusing on the showrunner, who is responsible for the creative direction of the program. It is an industrial position that began to get relevance in the 90s and nowadays it is one of the elements on which the current critical recog- nition of the television series is based. First we will approach the concept from a historical point of view, and then we will analyze the professional functions of the showrunner and the relationship with discourses about television series.
