Description

The Untold History of Television provides an exciting glimpse behind the scenes of the groundbreaking series that have defined the landscape of popular culture.

At Olivia Pope & Associates, scandal rules the day. The highly respected crisis management firm is the go-to for the high-profile political elite whose reputations are under threat. Scandal touches on political intrigue, covert spies, and international conspiracies, all with more than a dash of romance. Exploring not only the cultural significance and success of the show, The Untold History of Television: Scandal also examines the meteoric rise of Shonda Rhimes, and how her vision has changed the landscape of network television forever.

The ebook contains information about the inception and development of the series, thought-provoking episode analysis, and on-the-set stories about the cast and crew.
