Summary/Abstract: In this paper, we shall focus on the humorous television rewrites of the Algerian screenwriter and director Djaffar Gacem to demonstrate how humour can be at the service of transmedia storytelling. Our reflective approach is also intended to prove how Algerian humour and, more particularly, the parodic adaptations of the tale can enrich the universe of this mythical story and contribute to transmedia storytelling. Consequently, do Grimm's tales lose their primary meaning and lend themselves to a new interpretation or do they preserve the original storyline in this audiovisual transposition?
