Beskrivning
NBC's Grimm is an understudied series full of compelling characters, including Monroe, the charmingly knowledgeable vegetarian who looks like a werewolf; Wu, the funny cop who beats his way to the truth; Adalind, the enjoyably vengeful, risk-taking witch; Trubel, the furious young loner accused of insanity; Kelly, a powerful older warrior-woman; Nick, a compassionate detective; Hank, Juliette, Rosalee and others.This book, which includes a chapter on each key figure, explores the fascinating world of characterization in television. The storyline, as well as the dialogue, acting, costumes, scenery, lighting and music, contribute to in-depth depictions that evolve over time. Grimm's figures confound our perceptions of race, age and gender. They demonstrate the ability of TV characters to build unforgettable, meaningful connections.

Recensioner i media

“Though characters must regularly lurk in media studies’ shadows, appearing only for a paragraph here or there, Grimm’s Trailer Full of Secrets is refreshingly all about character. Grimm-like, and with (dare I say) a lot of character, Rhonda V. Wilcox voyages into these shadows, offering both a superb analysis of Grimm and a strong argument for the importance of centering characters in future work.”—Jonathan Gray, University of Wisconsin-Madison, author of Television Entertainment
