Encyclopedia of Television Shows

There were, between January 1, 2017, and December 31, 2022, 1,559 television series broadcast on three platforms: broadcast TV, cable TV, and streaming services. This, the second supplement to the original Encyclopedia of Television Shows, 1925-2010, presents detailed information on each program including storylines, casts (character and performer), years of broadcast, trivia facts, and network, cable or streaming information. Along with the traditional network channels and cable services, it covers the newest streaming services like Amazon Prime Video and Disney Plus and pioneering streaming services like Netflix and Hulu. The book includes a section devoted to reality and foreign series broadcast in the U.S. for the first time from 2017-2022, a listing of the series broadcast from 2011 through 2016 (which are contained on the prior supplement), and an index of performers.
