In
The Revolution Was Televised, celebrated TV critic Alan
Sepinwall chronicles the remarkable transformation of the small screen
over the past fifteen years. Focusing on twelve innovative television
dramas that changed the medium and the culture at large forever,
including
The Sopranos, Oz, The Wire, Deadwood, The Shield, Lost,
Buffy the Vampire Slayer, 24, Battlestar Galactica, Friday Night Lights,
Mad Men, and
Breaking Bad, Sepinwall weaves his trademark
incisive criticism with highly entertaining reporting about the
real-life characters and conflicts behind the scenes.
Drawing on
interviews with writers David Chase, David Simon, David Milch, Joel
Surnow and Howard Gordon, Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse, and Vince
Gilligan, among others, along with the network executives responsible
for green-lighting these groundbreaking shows,
The Revolution Was Televised is the story of a new golden age in TV, one that’s as rich with drama and thrills as the very shows themselves.
