Summary

TV Spinoff Failures explores why some television spinoffs, despite inheriting a built-in audience, fail to replicate the success of their parent shows. The book investigates the "spinoff paradox," highlighting how creative misalignment, misjudged audience expectations, and flawed network strategies contribute to these failures.

 
Did you know that a common pitfall is failing to establish a unique identity separate from the original series? Or that audience psychology plays a key role in viewers accepting or rejecting spinoff concepts?

 
This book analyzes case studies of notable failures, dissecting missteps in creative execution and marketing. It examines how network management and television production influence spinoff outcomes. By understanding the historical context and evolving landscape of television, the book illustrates that successful spinoffs must strike a delicate balance between thematic connection and independent identity.

 
The book progresses by introducing the "spinoff paradox," then analyzing specific failures, and finally synthesizing findings into a practical framework for increasing success. It emphasizes the importance of marketing principles and understanding audience expectations, offering valuable insights for industry professionals and television enthusiasts alike.

Leading While Black - The...

Torrance J. R. Jones

The American workplace exhibits a growing imbalance when it comes to human identity. Leaders are frequently defined in the absence of their critical social identifiers, but the exclusion of these identifiers is a mistake and ignores essential physical, cultural, and spiritual realities. Their exclusion is especially problematic for leaders of the Black identity and the Christian faith. Color-blind ideology harms people of color, while religion-blind systems damage people of faith, and both are especially problematic for individuals who reckon with both realities. 
 
 
 
Rather than abandoning an individual's social identities, the ones we choose and the ones we do not, Leading While Black draws on the lived experiences of executive-level leaders of the Christian faith and Black identity, and offers a testament to the power of a living God in the social fabric of public life. Instead of ignoring the narrative arc of social identities and the weight they carry when considering an individual's conception of leadership, Torrance Jones leans into the value of those identities and asserts their integral importance for Black leaders and for those who work with and for Black voices.

The Progress Principle - Using...

Steven Kramer, Teresa Amabile

What really sets the best managers above the rest? It's their power to build a cadre of employees who have great inner work lives—consistently positive emotions; strong motivation; and favorable perceptions of the organization, their work, and their colleagues. The worst managers undermine inner work life, often unwittingly. 
 
 
 
As Teresa Amabile and Steven Kramer explain in The Progress Principle, seemingly mundane workday events can make or break employees' inner work lives. But it's forward momentum in meaningful work—progress—that creates the best inner work lives. Through rigorous analysis of nearly 12,000 diary entries provided by 238 employees in seven companies, the authors explain how managers can foster progress and enhance inner work life every day. 
 
 
 
The book shows how to remove obstacles to progress, including meaningless tasks and toxic relationships. It also explains how to activate two forces that enable progress: (1) catalysts—events that directly facilitate project work, such as clear goals and autonomy—and (2) nourishers—interpersonal events that uplift workers, including encouragement and demonstrations of respect and collegiality.
