| Summary: | Grimm and Once Upon a Time offer a surprising example of two tv shows broadcast at the same time and relying on the same hypotext, the fantastic tale. And yet, these two television rewritings of the same intertextual substratum differ radically. One relies on crime and fantasy genres for serial rather than episodic development, and quickly distances itself from the fairytale world to develop its own urban fantasy plots. The other remains more faithful to the fantastic intertext but arranges it in such a way as to create a vast transfictional and metadiscursive world centered on family themes, while borrowing from soap opera. Thus, the contemporary and televisual rewritings of the fairytale aim more to "world build" than to pay homage to their distant literary ancestor. |
