Television historian Amanda Reyes joins me to talk about the American TV movie of the 1960s-1990s, its relationship to cinematic genres, and how their narratives dealt with topical subjects often on meagre shooting schedules and budgets.
Amanda's book on the subject, Are You in the House Alone, is published by Headpress, and her Made for TV Mayhem podcast is available here: https://tvmayhempodcast.wordpress.com
