Description:

Jonathan Gray examines the textual & social role of parody in offering critical commentary on other television programmes & genres. He focuses on how 'The Simpsons' has been able to talk back to three key genres: the sitcom, adverts & the news; and how parody can alter our perceptions of these genres.
