In Something Completely Different, Jeffrey Miller offers the first comprehensive study of British programming on American television, discussing why the American networks imported such series as The Avengers and Monty Python's Flying Circus; how American audiences received these uniquely British shows; and how the shows' success reshaped American television. 606 $aPopular culture 606 $aTelevision broadcasting$zGreat Britain$xInfluence 606 $aTelevision broadcasting$zUnited States 606 $aTelevision programs$zUnited States 615 0$aPopular culture. 615 0$aTelevision broadcasting$xInfluence. 615 0$aTelevision broadcasting 615 0$aTelevision programs 676 $a302.23/45/0973 700 $aMiller$b Jeffrey S$067177 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910812929503321 996 $aSomething completely different$94127755 997 $aUNINA
