Dear Angela includes fourteen critical essays that examine the
brief-lived but landmark television series, My So-Called Life
(1994-1995). Though certainly not the first young woman to be the
center of a television series, Angela Chase and the show about her
life were doing something new on television and influenced many of
the shows about young people that followed. Michele Byers and David
Lavery bring together enthusiastic and engaging voices that bear on
a series that continues to be hailed as a breakthrough moment in
television, even though more than a decade has passed since its
cancellation. Tackling a broad range of topics_from identity
politics, to music, to infidelity, and death_each essay builds upon
a belief that My So-Called Life is a particularly rich text worth
studying for the clues it offers about a particular moment in
cultural and television history. Dear Angela offers a sophisticated
analysis of the show's legacy and cultural relevance that will
appeal to media studies scholars and fans alike.
