This issue features columns from Jeffrey Sconce, Michael Z. Newman, Lisa Parks, Vanessa Au and Michael Kackman. This issue's columns in brief: "Flow Favorites: A Specter is Haunting Television Studies" by Jeffrey Sconce (http://flowtv.org/?p=4838) By raising the specter of "dead white men" theorists and their applicability to the 2008 Economic Meltdown, Jefferey Sconce provoked one of the most highly-charged debates on Flow in some time. "Flow Favorites: The Bronze Fonz" by Michael Z. Newman (http://flowtv.org/?p=4840) Michael Z. Newman?s "The Bronze Fonz" explores not only the relationship between art and popular culture, but between cultural memory and urban space. "Flow Favorites: Digg, Flickr, and the Colonizing of Bridging Texts" by Vanessa Au (http://flowtv.org/?p=4834) Discourse around the author?s image on Digg and Flickr highlight the fact that social media are shot through with race and gender codes. "Flow Favorites: Around the Antenna Tree" by Lisa Parks (http://flowtv.org/?p=4839) Lisa Parks' article revisits the infrastructure of communications media and examines the stakes of devices masked as "nature." "Flow Favorites: Quality Television, Melodrama, and Cultural Complexity" by Michael Kackman (http://flowtv.org/?p=4836) This piece sparked a vigorous discussion within the television studies community with its call to think more rigorously about why, exactly, we are drawn to aesthetically and narratively complex TV.
