Nowadays, series are getting a gigantic fame through the world and each day, millions of viewers are watching some of them.
This craze for series touch every continent, thereby, each inhabitants of different countries might have in common at least one serie. Obviously, big series such as Game Of Thrones, The Walking Dead or La Casa de Papel are those who are mostly watched, and so, they are mainly able to create a global culture.


What's more, series bring people together because it reunites them under the same interest. It can even go further with for example the Comic Con Paris.
An event organized in Paris, around the pop culture, mainly influenced by movies and series, and in which thousands of people from all over the world meet every year (32’000 people in 2017 for example).

    Concerning the content of your article I wanted to say that I was entirely in agreement with you. Today we live in a society where the series have a very important place in the global culture, in fact it is important to remember that nowadays series are the result of the communities and these communities are no more and no less than a group of people. sharing one or more same center of interest which is in perfect adequacy with the global culture. In addition, the series have grown so much that they exist in all genres and styles, which really allows everyone to find what they like so they can share it with others and discuss it.

    I really like watching series (mainly American) and especially animated Japanese and this greatly influences my friends, my conversations or my references.
    I think that the series plays a much more important role in our life than we might think, they are real centers of interest because they make us dream, feel emotions and sometimes even make us think.
