Publisher's Synopsis

Focusing on eight television series with strong elements of fantasy, this work includes assessments of the strategies used to promote the series' appeal; an explanation of ""transmedia"" storytelling and its influence on the television fantasy genre; and evaluations of how viewers have shaped cult texts and how greater audience acceptance encouraged creators to develop challengingly complex long-form dramas.
