The classic is Roger Silverstone's Framing Science, but that is from
1985. For something more recent, start with the Holliman et al (2009)
"Communicating Science" books and follow the references in
bibliographies.
You might, however, find that you are best served mixing studies of
"images of science" in other media (esp. film and/or books) with
general media studies texts on tv studies.
I'd also recommend doing a bit of a search of the Public Understanding
of Science and Science as Culture journals, both of which have
contained papers on science on TV in the last few years. These are
usually more specific that images of the whole of science in the whole
of television though, so they might not be relevant to your specific
project.
You might also find the "(In)visible Witnesses" project useful as a
recent and accessible study:
