Synopsis
This book examines the enduring appeal of sociopathic characters in television, particularly within the context of late capitalism. It explores how these figures, often portrayed as charismatic and successful, reflect and comment on our societal values and anxieties. The analysis looks at how television uses these characters to explore themes of power, ambition, and amorality.
