Summary/Abstract: MTV is a TV channel that has had a revolutionary impact on the development of pop culture. This station, which initially broadcast only videoclips, under the influence of the development of the Internet, especially YouTube, was forced to change its profile. Nowadays MTV is dominated by reality shows, some of which are very controversial. In Poland, “Warsaw Shore: Ekipa z Warszawy” – local version of the American “Jersey Shore” format, is very popular. That TV show presents a specific woman’s image, which has been described as a “liberated woman”. Analysing 12 seasons of that show, seven main characteristics that make up the image were identified.
