This book presents an examination of the television series Nurse
Jackie, making connections between the representational processes
and the audience consumption of the series. A key point of
reference is the political and performative potential of Nurse
Jackie with regards to its progressive representation of
prescription drug addiction and its relationship to the concept of
quality television. It deconstructs Nurse Jackie 's discursive
potential, involving intersections with contemporary notions of
genre, heroism, celebrity, therapy and feminism. At the same time
this book foregrounds the self-refl exive educational potential of
the series, largely enabled by the scriptwriters and the leading
actor Edie Falco.
