Description: "This critical exploration of the cult television series shows how its style, character and narrative structure have continued to tease and please viewers. By examining the show's mythic story arc, its expressionistic visuals and sounds, its self-reflexive humor, its ability to deliver strong sensory jolts, and its borrowing from the gothic horror tradition, the author explains why the series has been uniquely suited to its time."--BOOK JACKET.
