Seriale telewizyjne jako wspólnoty symboliczne
TV series as symbolic communities

Summary/Abstract: The object of consideration in this article are TV series present on the Polish media market, produced since the 1990s until today. The series are both American and Polish. In this article they are considered as symbolic communities. I scrutinize the characters presented in each of the series to demonstrate that they impersonate television myths belonging to a wider symbolic process of creating television mythologies. By conceiving series’ characters as symbolic constructions I attempt to answer the question, what those popular series myths tell us and what kind of communities emerge around them.
