Television criticism

Television criticism (also called TV criticism or TV reviewing) is the act of writing or speaking about television programming to subjectively evaluate its worth, meaning, and other aspects. It is often found in newspapers, television programs, radio broadcasts, Internet and specialist periodicals and books.

While originally developed to critique content for children, it has been used to critique how various issues and topics are presented on television, including race and femininity. Relations with audiences and networks are important to critics, but problems can arise with both.
