Much of John Caldwell's work addresses this issue -- see TELEVISUALITY and PRODUCTION CULTURE. I follow his lead on this in my own book, TELEVISION STYLE (Routledge 2010). See especially the chapter on MIAMI VICE and its use of a "cinematic" aesthetic. Also, you may find John Ellis's book, VISIBLE FICTIONS, pertains to your interests. It's a compare/contrast of film and TV.
