The pioneering, incisive, lavishly illustrated survey of noir on television the first of its kind Noir as a style, movement, or sensibility has its roots in hardboiled detective fiction by writers like Chandler and Hammett, and films adapted from their novels were among the first called film noir by French cin�astes. But film isn't the only medium with a taste for a dark story. Hundreds of noir dramas have been produced for television, featuring detectives and femmes fatales, gangsters, and dark deeds, continuing week after week, with a new disruption of the social order. In TV Noir, television historian Allen Glover presents the first complete study of the subject. Deconstructing its key elements with astute analysis, from NBC s adaptation of Woolrich's The Black Angel to the anthology programs of the 40s and 50s, from the classic period of Dragnet, M Squad, and 77 Sunset Strip to neo-noirs of the 60s and 70s including The Fugitive, Kolchak, and Harry O., this is the essential volume on TV noir.
