Episode 1.6: Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and Defining the Television Musical Series ft Dr. Caitlan Truelove

  • サマリー

  • Today’s conversation is with Dr. Caitlan Truelove, a musicologist and violinist who shares a passion for thinking deeply and very often about the intersection of TV and musicals. This episode is special because we hadn’t actually met beforehand. And while we are anchored in talking about Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, our conversation goes so many other places and into the complexities of studying a topic like this. What makes a tv musical series? What is/are the important aspects of a taxonomy? What does Crazy Ex-Girlfriend do well? What is considered successful? And why do people think musicals should be one type of thing? We go into a lot and have a great time finding overlap between Caitlan’s work on TV Musical Series and my own work on Serial TV Musical Episodes. This is definitely an episode to check out the notes afterwards as well since we cover a lot of material. Enjoy our conversation!
