The series have starred in what is perhaps the most important cultural phenomenon of the 21st century. Not only for its narrative quality, but also for its ability to emotionally engage large global audiences. The Sopranos, The Wire, Lost, Mad Men, Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, Stranger Things, Black Mirror or Euphoria are also fundamental works for understanding society, geopolitics or the creative industries of our time. There are only ten of the nearly two hundred series analyzed by the cultural critic Jorge Carrión in this book. To the essay published for the first time in 2011, which immediately became a reference title on the third golden age of television, he has added a hundred new pages in this updated, expanded and definitive edition, which can be read as a reading of television fiction as a whole and as a guide to navigate in this fascinating universe.
