Abstract
Television series are interesting objects of study to observe the representation that is performed on different social subjects. In this sense, it is interesting to know how serial narratives represent a movement traditionally denigrated by mass media: feminism. Under this premise, this article analyzes three fiction series announced as feminists on the consumer on demand platform Amazon Prime. The study universe has been composed of the series broadcast on the platform during the first quarter of 2020, a total of three series: Good Girls Revolt, Little Fires Everywhere and Dietland. A methodology has been developed for the study that includes concepts of audiovisual narrative and feminism. The results have shown the prevalence of liberal feminist values, with an emphasis on individual fulfillment and sexual liberation.
