“Television has never known what to do with grief, which resists narrative: the dramas of grief are largely internal - for the bereaved, it is a chaotic, intense, episodic period, but the chaos is by and large subterranean, and easily appears static to the friendly onlooker who has absorbed the fact of loss and moved on.” FactsLossGriefKnownTelevisionPeriodsDramaMovedChaosIntenseNarrativeInternalsFriendlyChaoticStaticMoved On Author:Meghan O'Rourke
