With an off-putting title and a decidedly retrograde premise, the
CW dramedy Crazy Ex-Girlfriend is a surprising choice for critical
analysis. But, loyal viewers quickly came to appreciate the show's
sharp cultural critique through masterful parody, and this strategy
has made it a critical darling and earned it several awards
throughout its run. In ways not often seen on traditional network
television, the show transcends conventional genre boundaries-the
Hollywood musical, the romantic comedy, the music video-while
resisting stereotypes associated with contemporary life. The essays
in this collection underscore the show's ability to distinguish
itself within the current television market. Focusing on themes of
feminism, gender identity, and mental health, contributors explore
the ways in which the show challenged viewer expectations, as well
as the role television critics play in identifying a show's
"authenticity" or quality.
