The pioneering, incisive, lavishly illustrated survey of noir on television—the first of its kind

An incisive, lavishly illustrated survey of noir on television—TV's most compelling and morally complex dramas.

TV Noir explores the evolution of noir storytelling on the small screen, tracing its roots from classic hardboiled crime fiction to the psychologically rich, morally ambiguous television dramas of today.

Author Allen Glover examines how noir’s signature themes—fatalism, corruption, alienation, and fractured identity—have shaped some of the most iconic series in television history.

From The Fugitive and Twin Peaks to The Sopranos, Breaking Bad, and True Detective, this critical companion dissects the visual style, narrative structure, and cultural resonance of noir-inflected shows across decades. With sharp analysis and deep appreciation, TV Noir reveals how television has become a powerful medium for exploring the darker corners of the human psyche.

Perfect for fans of crime fiction, media studies, and prestige television, this essential volume on TV noir is a must-read for anyone fascinated by the art of storytelling in the shadows.
