| Abstract | Unlike the criticism of the literary arts and the spoken word, rhetoric, television criticism is in its infancy. The styles suggested for television criticism have primarily been drawn from modern drama, literature and semiotics. Today, television critics of the scholarly sort are looking at a variety of styles to see if they can tell their students more about the medium of television (cinematic criticism, content analysis, linguistics, phenomenalism, and phenomenology). However, in order to comprehend television, the critics need not concern themselves completely with modern approaches to television criticism; instead, it may prove just as beneficial to reexamine the classical Greek legacy, starting with Homer and concluding with the rise of Rome. The Hellenic heritage has been incorporated into every aspect of Western thought. In America, speech communication and English seem to have benefited the most from this connection. Television, because of its technological armor, appears to have been impregnable by any form of criticism outside this era. Classical dramatic criticism can be recommended as a viable style to criticize television because of its influence from the dawn of Western Civilization to the present. The philosophers Plato and Aristotle can be placed in juxtaposition as thesis and antithesis, followed by the tragedians Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides and concluding with the comedian Aristophanes. Afterwards, the classical Greek model can be applied to television programming, particularly that of the theatrical genre. In this manner, television can benefit from classical dramatic criticism.
