(Redirected from Television drama series)'Dramatic programming' is
television content that is scripted and (normally) fictional. This excludes, for example,
sports,
news,
reality and
game shows,
stand-up comedy and
variety shows. Also, by convention, the term is not generally usually used for
situation comedy or
soap opera. The term is used more in the
Commonwealth of Nations countries than the
United States.
Most dramatic programming for TV falls within other standard categories such as
miniseries,
made-for-TV movies or certain rather circumscribed dramatic genres.
Some examples of
BBC dramatic programming would be the serials ''
The Six Wives of Henry VIII'' or ''
Our Friends in the North''.
