(W) Allen Glover
Hundreds of noir dramas have been produced for television, featuring detectives and femmes fatales, gangsters, and dark deeds, continuing week after week, with a new disruption of the social order. In TV Noir, television historian Allen Glover presents the first complete study of the subject. Deconstructing its key elements with astute analysis, from NBC's adaptation of Woolrich's
The Black Angel to the anthology programs of the '40s and '50s, from the classic period of
Dragnet,
M Squad, and
77 Sunset Strip to neo-noirs of the '60s and '70s including
The Fugitive,
Kolchak, and
Harry O., this is the essential volume on TV noir.
