ABOUT TV SHORTS: TV Shorts provides a unique online space for television
scholars, critics, students and fans to present new research and/or initiate
critical debate on contemporary television with a specific focus on fictions
made for the small screen. Distinct about TV Shorts, with its open deadline,
quick turnaround and immediate posting, is that it seeks to engage with the
television zeitgeist, to take the pulse of contemporary culture as it were,
while locating new ways of thinking and writing about television.

TV Shorts aims to establish an intellectual space where new voices are 
heard and
fresh perspectives offered. It will train attention on pioneering areas of
research and groundbreaking critical approaches to contemporary television
fiction, generating lively debate as well as providing an intellectual and
creative platform for thinking differently and ingeniously responding to
contemporary television culture. Innovation is encouraged, intellectual
curiosity demanded and difference expected.
