  Television Studies
Television studies is the relatively recent, aspirationally disciplinary name given to the academic study of television.
The "television" of television studies is a relatively new phenomenon, just as many of the key television scholars are employed in departments of sociology, politics, communication arts, speech, theatre, media and film studies.
Thus television, along with other of the mass media, is conceptualised within frameworks principally concerned with the maintenance of social order; the reproduction of the status quo, the relationship between the state, media ownership and citizenship, the constitution of the public sphere.

 Television - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Television is a telecommunication system for broadcasting and receiving moving pictures and sound over a distance.

 Here's Television: The History of the BBC   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The BBC decided that the official start to the Television Service proper should be on November 2 1936, and it laid down the red carpets at Alexandra Palace and had the thing done in style, with an opening ceremony before the cameras performed by a strangely mixed company.
Lord Selsdon, judicial chairman of the Government's television committee, the Post Master General, and the chairman of the BBC governors were joined by Adele Dixon, singing, and by a coloured pair known as Buck and Bubbles, dancing.
Television was then very fond of putting glamour on the screen, and London cabarets and show managements were co-operative enough to send up to Alexandra Palace such curvaceous troupes of girls as the Buddy Bradley Girls, The Albertina Rasch Girls from the Dorchester, and later, Henry Sherek's Chester Hale Girls.

 informitv - Television licence loophole for broadband television
The television licence in the UK is now collected under the provisions of the Communications Act 2003, which replaces the old Wireless Telegraphy Act of 1949.
Specifically, the Communications (Television Licensing) Regulations 2004 define a television receiver as “any apparatus installed or used for the purpose of receiving (whether by means of wireless telegraphy or otherwise) any television programme service, whether or not it is installed or used for any other purpose”.
The television licence may be assured in the short term, but is in danger of appearing to be something of an anachronism in the new world of video services delivered digitally, whether by means of “wireless telegraphy” or otherwise.

 Central Europe Review - Mayhem at Czech Television
Although the Council for Czech Television was widely criticised for selecting Puchalský in 1998, it ignored these criticisms and appointed his ally, Dušan Chmelíček from Czech Television's legal department, as the new Chief Executive at the end of January 2000.
Czech politicians have learned to use the incompetence of people at, and around, Czech Television in order to assert their own political ends, ie to enfeeble the broadcasting outlet that should be functioning as an assertive watchdog over Czech democracy.

here have been a couple of attempts to translate Wodehouse into television, including a few adaptations of the Jeeves stories.
None, however, was more successful at both in capturing the spirit and language of the master than the adaptations by Clive Exton for Granada Television.
While purists (understandably) argue that there was too much mucking about with story lines, or that Stephen Fry was too young, one cannot disagree with the fact that the performances were outstanding, the production lavish, the music fun, and the writing captured much of the language that makes Wodehouse such a joy to read.
