Description

Explore the rise of the morally complex protagonist in modern drama with The Antihero in American Television. As part of the Routledge Advances in Television Studies series, this book examines why audiences connect with characters who lack traditional goodness. From the mobster life of Tony Soprano in The Sopranos to the transformation of Walter White in Breaking Bad and the dark nature of Dexter Morgan in Dexter, this work analyzes the mechanics of viewer engagement. Vaage investigates the psychological connection between the spectator and the screen. The text looks at how the fictional nature of these series impacts how we judge characters, often bypassing our usual rational moral evaluations. This study provides a deep look into the moral psychology of fiction and what these popular television series reveal about our own psychological make-up. It is an essential resource for anyone interested in film history, television criticism, and the evolution of storytelling in American media.
