It provides an account of the processes of production and reception for seven series, offering close textual readings of individual episodes. At this critical time for the medium, the transition between national network television (Televisa) and transnational streaming platforms (Netflix andAmazon Prime), Mexican creators, mainly women, have responded with new and exciting innovations. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe book focuses on three genres. First, it shows how the much despised and loved heritage telenovela, addressed primarily to a female audience, has adapted to changed circumstances by addressing once taboo social issues and how a classic broadcast title is adapted for a new platform. Second, it examines fiction series and true crime titles, which investigate the key and troubled topic of the legal process in Mexico. And third, it addresses the key new genre of the bio-series in its multimedia context, focusing on a celebrated wrestler and movie star.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Julian Smith\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1399560522\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781399560528\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/31\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.86lbs","brand":"Paul Julian Smith","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48440546263295,"sku":"9781399560528","price":125.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f2769c0a-fe63-48f5-bb78-561f2153228a.jpg?v=1777183156","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/television-drama-in-mexico-paul-julian-smith-9781399560528","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
