Television Producers (Hardcover)

From live sports coverage to situation comedy, British television is producer-driven. Television Producers presents a comprehensive survey of the entire spectrum of television broadcasting, focusing on seven key programming areas - documentaries, news, sport, infotainment, drama, comedy and game shows. Jeremy Tunstall discusses the main concerns of the producers, including money, the type of performers available, organizing studio, location and film, and the kinds of expectations which each particular genre is expected to fulfil. Television Producers provides an in-depth look at the work of individual producers including the Top People in British broadcasting - producers of leading programmes and the network barons. Over 250 producers across the range of British television - BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and the independents - were interviewed for the book, as well as the Hollywood executive producers of Dallas, Kojak, MASH and CHIPS. The final chapter considers the possibilities for the future of broadcasting as it faces the 20th century.
