Music in Comedy Television : Notes on Laughs, Hardback Book

Music in Comedy Television : Notes on Laughs Hardback

Edited by Liz Giuffre, Philip Hayward

Part of the Routledge Music and Screen Media Series series

Hardback

Description

The study of television and music has expanded greatly in recent years, yet to date no book has focused on the genre of comedy television as it relates to music.

Music in Comedy Television: Notes on Laughs fills that gap, breaking new critical ground.

With contributions from an array of established and emerging scholars representing a range of disciplines, the twelve essays included cover a wide variety of topics and television shows, spanning nearly fifty years across network, cable, and online structures and capturing the latest research in this growing area of study.

From Sesame Street to Saturday Night Live, from Monty Python to Flight of the Conchords, this book offers the perfect introduction for students and scholars in music and media studies seeking to understand the role of music in comedy onscreen and how it relates to the wider culture.
