In this article we will explore how HBO came to legitimatise a contemporary television culture through producing distinct divisions ad infinitum, framed as being rooted outside mainstream commercial television production. In creating incessant divisions in genre, authorship and aesthetics, HBO incorporates artistic norms and principles of evaluation and puts them into circulation as a succession of oppositions— oppositions that we will explore throughout this paper.

  • True Detective Provides Talented Acting and Exciting Plot
    True Detective provides talented acting and exciting plot HBO’s True Detective has been one of the best shows to come to television in recent years. With its riveting action sequences, sizzling erotic scenes, and amazing cast, this program, directed by Cary Fukanaga, truly provides audiences with gripping television. Set in the mid-1990s and filmed in Louisiana, detectives Martin Hart (Woody Harrelson) and Rustin “Rust” Cohle (Matthew McConaughey) are on the trail of a ritual-obsessed serial killer who adorns his victims’ bodies with antlers and other symbols. Told mostly through flashbacks, the show cuts to scenes of the detectives being interviewed in present day, with hints at their possible corruption. The excitement of the program comes with the transition between seasons, with each season having a completely new story and cast. This format ensures that the viewer is never left with a cliffhanger, as all the questions have to be answered by the last episode of each season. For me, actors have done their job when they are completely absorbed in their part and the audience no longer sees an actor, but only a character. McConaughey and Harrelson achieve this feat and truly bring these characters off the screen and into our living rooms. However, where these actors really excel is their power to tell a story. Now, one might think that storytelling comes from the writer, but the detectives’ use of facial expressions, along with slight mannerisms to get their intended message across, certainly brings the show to a whole new level. However, the area in which this series is lacking is where so many other great shows today excel—the presence of strong female characters.

Abstract In 1997 HBO aired its first original drama series, Oz. In the years that have followed the network has positioned itself as vanguard in the television landscape, however, HBO drama series have remained a complicated, and often dangerous site for female characters. Moreover, with a few exceptions (Sex and the City, or True Blood for example), original HBO drama series remain focused on the network’s primary audience demographic: the predominantly male, relatively affluent consumers of quality television. This research explores the representation of female detectives within original HBO crime drama series, The Wire (2002--8) and Season Two of True Detective (2014 -), in order to examine how female officers, operate within the male-dominated world of HBO drama.

With the publication of Death Cruise, a creative tour-de-force, award-winning author Dan Anderson again shows why he is one of the most fascinating and A Chauncey McFadden Mystery entertaining voices in the mystery field today. Chauncey McFadden, a Los Angeles PI, receives a frantic phone call from the president of a Miami-based cruise line. Two employees have been killed in port and Chauncey is hired to solve the crime and prevent further atrocities. The portly, wisecracking Chauncey has limited homicide experience, but naively accepts this job thinking it will be little more than a free vacation. However, things quickly fall apart as the body count climbs onboard ship and in Caribbean island ports of call. A shipment of drugs being smuggled into Miami disappears from the ship before its delivery which unleashes a vengeful vendetta upon everyone in its path. This riveting, fast-paced story includes a secret drug-smuggling cartel with voodoo roots that deals with its enemies in vicious, ritualistic fashion, an aging silver screen legend who is not what he appears to be, a corporate takeover artist thwarted in his recent attempt to seize control of the cruise line, and an international assassin for hire who thwarts prosecution with a novel approach to murder.

  • True Detective and the States of American Wound Culture
    True Detective and the States of American Wound Culture RODNEY TAVEIRA “Criminals should be publically displayed ... at the frontiers of the country.” Plato (qtd. in Girard 298) HE STATE INSTITUTIONS PORTRAYED IN THE HBO CRIME PROCEDU- ral True Detective are innately and structurally corrupt. Local T mayors’, state governors’, and district attorneys’ offices, city and county police, and sheriff’s departments commit and cover up violent crimes. These offices and departments comprise mostly mid- dle-aged white men. Masculinist desires for power and domination manifest as interpersonal ends and contact points between the indi- vidual and the state. The state here is a mutable system, both abstract and concrete. It encompasses the functions of the legal and political offices whose corruption is taken for granted in their shady rela- tions to criminal networks, commercial enterprises, and religious institutions. There is nothing particularly novel about this vision of the state. Masculinist violence and institutional corruption further damage vic- tims in the system (typically women, children, and disempowered and disenfranchised others, like migrant workers) who need a hero to solve the crimes committed against them—these tropes are staples of detective fiction, film noir, and many television crime procedurals. What then explains the popular and critical success of True Detective? Moreover, what does the show’s representation of the state—its aes- thetic strategies, narratives, and images—reveal about contemporary The Journal of Popular Culture, Vol. 50, No. 3, 2017 © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 585 586 Rodney Taveira understandings and imaginings of the state, the individual, and the relations between them? While tracing the complex entanglement of the entertainment industries with femicidal and spectacular violence within a critical regionalism, carried out through digital modes of distribution, one can also see how government agencies shape content.

  • TROUBLE in the “PSYCHOSPHERE”: HBO‟S TRUE DETECTIVE (2014) AS a HYBRID GENRE Elisabete Lopes ABSTRACT Recently, Many Conte
    TROUBLE IN THE “PSYCHOSPHERE”: HBO‟S TRUE DETECTIVE (2014) AS A HYBRID GENRE Elisabete Lopes1 ABSTRACT Recently, many contemporary TV shows have raised the stakes as far as the quality of their contents is concerned. They welcomed certain challenges that contributed to lend them the status of cult series. True Detective (2014) certainly forms part of this selective group. Nic Pizzolatto, the creative mind behind True Detective (2014), decided to take up all these challenges and ended up by creating a hybrid show in the sense that it gathers elements of Gothic genre, weird fiction, criminal investigation, and film noir that, once mixed up, paved the way to the upcoming success. Other feature that fuels True Detective‟s allure lies precisely in the ties that it openly shares with literature, since it purports references that point to well-known oeuvres or authors. In this light, it is the purpose of this essay to examine how Pizzolatto‟s eclectic recipe combine its ingredients that result in a TV show anchored upon the parameters of originality and quality. The undeniable quality of True Detective (2014) goes beyond the well-thought script, Adam Arkapaw‟s mesmerizing photography, the protagonists‟ amazing performance, and the careful direction of Cary Fukunaga. It has become a true postmodern visual monster that unexpectedly came straight from the Lousiana bayous to haunt us, bringing along an aura of cosmic horror that, interlinked with suspense and criminal investigation, will relentlessly take a grip on us. Keywords: True Detective (2014); Gothic; Southern Gothic; Film Noir; Cosmic Horror; criminal investigation. PERTURBAÇÕES NA „PSICOESFERA‟: TRUE DETECTIVE (2014) ENQUANTO GÉNERO HÍBRIDO RESUMO Recentemente, tem-se assistido a uma crescente qualidade a nível das séries televisivas.

  • VEEP SEASON 6 Premiering Wednesdays from April 26 at 8.30Pm
    Media Release: Thursday, April 13 2017 VEEP SEASON 6 Premiering Wednesdays from April 26 at 8.30pm or stream instantly on Foxtel Play From Wednesday, April 26 at 8.30pm, Foxtel will present the sixth season of the HBO award-winning comedy series Veep starring Emmy® winner Julia Louis-Dreyfus as Selina Meyer, the former Vice President and onetime President, who looks to secure her legacy now that she’s out of office. The acclaimed comedy takes a sharp, satirical look at the insular world of politics, following the day-to-day existence of the former VP and onetime President Selina Meyer. Season 6 picks up one year after the events of Season 5, in which Selina ultimately lost a Senate vote to resolve the Electoral College tie. Now out of public office for the first time in years, Selina seeks to secure her legacy and find her place in the world, while much of her staff pursues endeavors of their own. A perennial favorite with fans and critics, this 10-episode season of Veep finds this band of misfits attempting to make their mark, while navigating the political landscape in Washington and beyond. Veep has received seven Golden Globe nominations since its debut in 2012, and has won a total of twelve Primetime Emmys®, including three 2016 Emmys® for Outstanding Comedy Series, Outstanding Casting for a Comedy Series, and Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series (Louis-Dreyfus). In addition to five Emmy® wins, Julia Louis-Dreyfus has also received four Golden Globe nominations for her role as Selina Meyer.
