 The series won eight awards at the 2015 Primetime Emmys.
Pygmalion (French: "Pygmalion" ) is the most influential dramatic work by Jean-Jacques Rousseau, other than his opera "Le devin du village".
 Though now rarely performed, it was one of the first ever melodramas (that is, a play consisting of pantomime gestures and the spoken word, both with a musical accompaniment).
 It is formed of spoken monodrama with instrumental musical interludes and thus can be credited with spreading a new theatrical genre, especially in German-speaking areas of Europe.
 He wrote it in 1762, with music by Horace Coignet.
 It was first performed at the Hôtel de Ville, Lyon in 1770.
 The work is considered a turning point for its author, who also wrote "The Social Contract" that same year.

 Tim Davis, reviewing that title for Bookloons.com, wrote, "Fans of urban fantasy should especially enjoy Strout's engaging new protagonist and will, no doubt, look forward to Simon Canderous making a quick return in further adventures."
 The second novel, "Deader Still," was published in 2009.
 The third book, "Dead Matter" was published in 2010 and the fourth, "Dead Waters" was published in 2011.
A Darker Domain is a 2008 psychological thriller novel by Scottish crime writer Val McDermid.
 Reviewers often noted the fast paced style of the novel as it flashes back and forth between two plot lines, a contemporary crime in 2007 and the investigation of a cold case from 1984.
 The novel is set in during the UK miners strike of 1984–1985 in Fife.
 Her accounts of the strike are particularly pointed, exploring the effects of the strikes on the emotions of the people involved and their community.
 McDermid was raised in Fife, and one reviewer credits her accurate review of the strikes to her experiences earlier in her life.
 The reviews of the book were generally good, many of the reviewers comparing the book to her previous novels.
 The New York Times named the book one of the "Notable Crime Books of 2009."

Dramatic structure (also called Freytag's pyramid) is the structure of a dramatic work such as a play or film.

 This article focuses primarily on Gustav Freytag's analysis of ancient Greek and Shakespearean drama.
Neon-noir cinema is a contemporary rendering of the film noir.
 A subset of the neo-noir genre, both take their name from the films noir: the highly stylised Hollywood crime dramas of the 1940’s and 50’s.
 The term film noir when translated to English reads ‘dark film’, alluding to the genre's dark or sinister sensibilities.
 This shaded undertone is highly characteristic of films noir, also marked by their dramatic use of lighting and shadow play, hard-boiled and often complex plot lines, reversed stereotypes, the presence of crime and violence, off-centre and tilted camera angles, cityscape shots or montages, and dreamlike aesthetic, to name but a few.
