Correo electrónico: [email protected] Recibido el 14 de agosto de 2018; aceptado el 13 de septiembre de 2018. Cómo citar este artículo: Cambra Badii I, Baños JE. ¿Un médico con autismo en la televisión? Enseñanzas de The Good Doctor. Rev Med Cine [Internet] 2018;14(4): 273-283. Resumen La serie televisiva The Good Doctor / El buen doctor (TV) (2017) de David Shore (Estados Unidos) resulta fecunda para analizar diversas cuestiones de importancia para las ciencias de la salud. En primer lugar, en tanto que serie médica, permite adentrarnos en la ficción de médicos y pacientes, los dilemas bioéticos suscitados en sus relaciones y las implicaciones de la actuación profesional en la vida de los pacientes. Por otra parte, las peculiares cualidades del protagonista (caracterizado con un diagnóstico de autismo y síndrome de savant, lo cual lo hace ser tan extre- madamente inteligente como poco hábil en las relaciones sociales) resultan la vía de acceso para el análisis de las representaciones sobre las personas con autismo, tanto en el cine como en la televisión. En este artículo nos foca- lizaremos especialmente en la representación del autismo y en el hecho de que el protagonista sea el primer médico autista en aparecer en una serie. ¿Cuáles son las características de estos personajes? ¿Cómo está caracterizado el protagonista de The Good Doctor? Su utilidad docente para estudiantes de ciencias de la salud se multiplica y per- mite retomar cuestiones bioéticas, aspectos ligados a la comunicación médico-paciente y los límites y las posibilida- des de la práctica médica.

Applying a Rhizomatic Lens to Television Genres
A THOUSAND TV SHOWS: APPLYING A RHIZOMATIC LENS TO TELEVISION GENRES _______________________________________ A Dissertation presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School at the University of Missouri-Columbia _______________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy _____________________________________________________ by NETTIE BROCK Dr. Ben Warner, Dissertation Supervisor May 2018 The undersigned, appointed by the dean of the Graduate School, have examined the Dissertation entitled A Thousand TV Shows: Applying A Rhizomatic Lens To Television Genres presented by Nettie Brock A candidate for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy And hereby certify that, in their opinion, it is worthy of acceptance. ________________________________________________________ Ben Warner ________________________________________________________ Elizabeth Behm-Morawitz ________________________________________________________ Stephen Klien ________________________________________________________ Cristina Mislan ________________________________________________________ Julie Elman ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Someone recently asked me what High School Nettie would think about having written a 300+ page document about television shows. I responded quite honestly: “High School Nettie wouldn’t have been surprised. She knew where we were heading.” She absolutely did. I have always been pretty sure I would end up with an advanced degree and I have always known what that would involve. The only question was one of how I was going to get here, but my favorite thing has always been watching television and movies. Once I learned that a job existed where I could watch television and, more or less, get paid for it, I threw myself wholeheartedly into pursuing that job. I get to watch television and talk to other people about it. That’s simply heaven for me. A lot of people helped me get here.

Front Matter
Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-04393-0 - Viewing America: Twenty-First-Century Television Drama Christopher Bigsby Frontmatter More information VIEWING AMERICA Something has happened in the world of television drama. For the last decade and a half America has assumed a dominant position. Novelists, screenwriters and journalists, who would once have had no interest in writing for television, indeed who often despised it, suddenly realised that it was where America could have a dialogue with itself. The new television drama was where writers could engage with the social and political realities of the time, interrogating the myths and values of a society moving into a new century. Familiar genres have been reinvented, from crime fiction to science fiction. This is a book as much about a changing America as about the television series which have addressed it, from The Sopranos and The Wire to The West Wing, Mad Men and Treme, in what has emerged as the second golden age of American television drama. christopher bigsby is Professor of American Studies at the Uni- versity of East Anglia. A Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature and the Royal Society of Arts, he is an award-winning academic, novelist and biographer and has published more than fifty books, including six novels. His first novel, Hester (1995), won the McKitterick Prize, and Beautiful Dreamer (2002) was an American Library Association Notable Book. With Don Wilmeth, he won the Bernard Hewitt Award for Outstanding Research in Theatre History and the George Freedley Jury Award for The Cambridge History of American The- atre (1998–2000).
