“Despite its pervasiveness in our mediated lives, ‘television’ as a digital entity is a fraught term. In <i>Television 2.0</i>, Rhiannon Bury unites television studies, audience research, fan studies, and new media analysis to uncover new and exciting ways to understand that-which-used-to-be-a-box. Pushing past common assumptions about the death of television, Bury re-engages television scholarship through fan interviews, qualitative and quantitative methods, historical methods, and empirical research. In <i>Television 2.0</i>, Bury rereads today’s television as a reassemblage of content, fandom, and participation—a social technology in the digital age. A must-read!”
Paul Booth, author of <i>Digital Fandom 2.0</i>, <i>Playing Fans</i> and <i>Time on TV</i>

“The ‘2.0’ label may have become a buzzword, but <i>Television 2.0</i> skillfully puts streaming/downloading hype to the test. Rhiannon Bury draws brilliantly on original empirical data to show how television today remains crucially framed by both domestic and affective relations. Hybridising Deleuzian theory with classic TV studies’ work from the likes of Roger Silverstone and James Lull, <i>Television 2.0</i> explores the fascinating assemblages and reassemblages of contemporary TV. And Bury makes a vital intervention into debates around fandom and participatory culture by introducing the notion of a ‘participatory continuum.’ <i>Television 2.0</i> is provocative and compelling, well evidenced and astutely argued; I am already a devoted fan of this book.”
Matt Hills, author of <i>Fan Cultures</i> and co-director of the Centre for Participatory Culture, University of Huddersfield

"<i>Television 2.0</i> ... is a brief and insightful study about the consumption of TV in (primarily) Western countries at the beginning of the XXI century. The book is an informative resource for both academics and students working on and interested in television, new media and fandom."
