One dimensional television characters are a thing of the past--today's popular shows feature intricate storylines and well developed characters. From the brooding Damon Salvatore in The Vampire Diaries to the tough-minded Rick Grimes in The Walking Dead, protagonists are not categorically good, antagonists often have relatable good sides, and heroes may act as antiheroes from one episode to the next. This collection of new essays examines the complex characters in Orange Is the New Black, Homeland, Key & Peele, Oz, Empire, Breaking Bad, House, and Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Two female students walking near the ocean discover a young man in a small boat who is in distress and after they rescue him they discover that he is from another world.
It was early fall 1973, and I was the high school principal in Burke, South Dakota. Around dawn, I had gone fishing in one of the areas many stock dams in an effort to catch a few bass before my workday began. I caught a good-sized bass, and I took it to Fernaus Grocery for official weighing. It went 5 lbs. 9 oz. Apparently, the word was out.

In 1986, a handful of authors challenged each other to write new works every month, to be reproduced and shared for mutual criticism. Enter a graphic artist with a sophisticated reproduction equipment, and before they knew it, the literary magazine Chronoscope was born. Although producing only 14 issues over its two-and-a-half year run, Chronoscope had readers and contributors from a dozen countries around the world. Here are poems of love, terror, contemplation, merriment and sorrow. There is teasing of sacred cows, and a French town full of escaped chickens. From the tenderness of passion to the endless dull travel of a couple locked in an empty marriage, from the terror of the opening of a doorway into Hell to a riotously naughty look at the nature of statistics, Chronoscope always entertained, touched, tickled, and tore at the imaginations of its readers. Welcome to this, the anthology of the best that Chronoscope had to offer during its initial run, and the inauguration of the annual competition for other new, passionate voices to be heard. Come enjoy a time of creation, a time of expression, a time of the mind taking flight... Come take the measure of Chronoscope.
When you boil down its murder, abuse, heartbreak, and desire, A Match Made is revealed to be a love story.
