Abstract
This review examines how two recent books use a multidisciplinary approach to examine seriality as both technology and narrative mode in contemporary American television. Both Dennis Broe’s Birth of the Binge: Serial TV and the End of Leisure (Wayne State University Press, 2019) and Maria Sulimma’s Gender and Seriality: Practices and Politics of Contemporary US Television (Edinburgh University Press, 2020) examine the impacts of the interactivity between socio-political climates and the unique formal aspects of serial television has on social identity, relationality, and the potential for resistance within the medium.
