From The New Yorker's fiercely original, Pulitzer Prize-winning television critic, a collection of "confident, dauntless criticism -- smart and spiky, brilliantly sure of itself and the medium it depicts" (The New York Times)From her creation of the "Approval Matrix" in New York magazine in 2004 to her Pulitzer Prizewinning columns for The New Yorker, Emily Nussbaum has argued that we've been looking at TV all wrong. In this collection, including two never-before-published essays, Nussbaum writes about her passion for television, beginning with Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the show that set her on a fresh intellectual path.
