Combining transmedia studies with fan studies, Carmen Spano uses a range of qualitative and quantitative audience data to make a sophisticated case for the ongoing importance of primary textual structures at a time of transmedia storytelling/extensions. This book sets out a compelling contrast between Mad Men and Game of Thrones, as well as assessing national contexts of consumption, and evaluating the roles of 'casual' or 'hardcore' fandom. We've long known audiences are active; this study expertly teases out exactly how its contemporary audiences encounter transmedia TV. - Professor Matt Hills, author of Fan Cultures
