	Television program - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A television series that is intended to air a finite number of episodes is usually called a miniseries or serial (although the latter term also has other meanings).
		The content of television programs may be factual, as in documentaries, news, and reality television, or fictional as in comedy and drama.
		While television series appearing on TV networks are usually commissioned by the networks themselves, their producers earn greater revenue when the program is sold into syndication.

	Insights and Outlooks: Getting Serious With Series Television Musicals
		This conservative view, shared by many of early television's writers, producers and directors, many of whom had begun their careers in radio or the theatre, demonstrates how different television was considered in comparison to the theatre and, probably, from film.
		The television musical had trouble claiming its place in a medium that abhorred the lyrical, given that at the time of television's infancy, the lyrical Hollywood musical was in its prime.
		The fairy tale musical is the most common type of musical in television series because it took the regular characters out of their normal world, thereby allowing them to act differently without causing any distortion of the accepted verisimilitude.

	Journal of Popular Film and Television: Cop Rock revisited: unsung series and musical hinge in cross-genre evolution (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		The unsung series might be viewed as a musical muse and martyr that foreshadowed the further exploration and integration of music into dramatic and comic narratives.
		Television audiences were not ready for crooning cops, suspect serenades, junkies jammin', and judge and jury jingles from week to week in a dramatic series.
		Television series, like any cultural product, are subject to numerous individual, collaborative, organizational, sociocultural, and economic conditions and circumstances that collectively foster or hinder their inception, development, distribution, and success or failure.

	Max Headroom
		ABC brought the series to American television in March 1987, refilming the original movie as a pilot but recasting most of the secondary roles.
		Critics admired the series' self-reflexivity, its willingness to pose questions about television networks and their often unethical and cynical exploitation of the ratings game, and its parody of game shows, political advertising, tele-evangelism, news coverage, and commercials.
		This series's self-conscious parody of television conventions and its conception of a "society of spectacle" was considered emblematic of the "postmodern condition," making it a favorite of academic writers as well.

	Batman
		Interestingly, as in the two Batman movies released in the 1990s, this new animated series erased Robin from the scene, possibly responding to criticisms of the homoerotic subtext between the two heroes.
		Originally shown every afternoon, the FOX series moved to the Saturday morning FOX line-up in the spring of 1994.
		At the same time the series also brought Robin back, possibly responding to the word that a new Batman, film to be released in 1995, would again include Robin in its plot.
