Religion Across Television Genres: Community, Orange Is the New Black, The Walking Dead, and Supernatural connects communication theories to the religious content of TV programs across an array of platforms and content genres, specifically the NBC comedy Community, the critically acclaimed Netflix series Orange Is the New Black, AMC's international megahit The Walking Dead, and the CW's long-running fan favorite Supernatural. Its contemporary relevancy makes Religion Across Television Genres ideal for use as a library resource, scholarly reference, and textbook for both undergraduate and graduate courses in mass media, religious studies, and popular culture.

Industry Reviews

"Through their close analysis of the 'sign-vehicles' within television programs across a range of genres, Joseph M. Valenzano III and Erika Engstrom show us how television both mirrors how religion is lived in America and performs a subtle but significant sermonic function in authorizing and adumbrating religious belief. Religion Across Television Genres would greatly enrich any course in religious communication or mass media and society. I recommend it highly." -Dennis D. Cali, Professor and Chair of the Department of Communication at the University of Texas at Tyler
