Reviews

'One of the strengths of the book is the way perspectives on greater topics, such as the dualism of nature and culture, national identity, the concept of time, are combined with close analyses of the experience of liveness and the practical and aesthetic choices behind the productions, right down to the choice of cameras and other equipment. While three programmes are studied in detail, the book also provides an overview of developments and contextualisation, thus providing perspectives that are relevant for slow TV outside Norway, as well as television production more generally. [...] The book is richly illustrated, has a lot of informative tables, and is clearly structured and well-written throughout. [...] This will probably be the defining book on the topic since it covers so many aspects of the production, reception, contents, and aesthetics of these programmes.' -- Anne Gjelsvik, Critical Studies in Television
