Prime time: those precious few hours every night when the three
major television networks garner millions of dollars while tens of
millions of Americans tune in. Inside Prime Time is a classic study
of the workings of the Hollywood television industry, newly
available with an updated introduction. Inside Prime Time takes us
behind the scenes to reveal how prime-time shows get on the air,
stay on the air, and are shaped by the political and cultural
climate of their times. It provides an ethnography of the world of
American commercial television, an analysis of that world's
unwritten rules, and the most extensive study of the industry ever
made.
