Diane Winston — TV and Parables of Our Time (July 16, 2009)

Diane Winston appreciates good television, studies it, and brings many of its creators into her religion and media classes at the University of Southern California. In what some have called a renaissance in television drama, we examine how TV is helping us tell our story and work through great confusions in contemporary life. And, we play clips from "The Wire," House," "Lost," and "Battlestar Galactica". See more at www.onbeing.org/program/tv-and-parables-our-time/237
