Annotation:
	Shows different modes of intertextuality in Paul Matthew Thompson and Jude Tindall's BBC show, Shakespeare & Hathaway: Private Investigators (premiered 2018), including Shakespearean allusions in paratexts such as advertisements, "names of characters, venues, and enterprises," borrowed plot points, and quotations. Argues that "Shakespeare & Hathaway takes a stand on the side of Shakespeare as a canonical author, a representative of high culture, by mocking (however lovingly) its protagonists’ ignorance of Shakespeare’s oeuvre and cultural significance."
