For this special issue of “Series: International Journal of TV Serial 
Narratives”, we welcome articles exploring how fictional TV series 
interact with populist politics through platforms and networks – with 
the latter terms intended in the most fluid way, encapsulating the 
social, industrial, commercial dimensions of each. We encourage 
contributions that adopt a variety of methodological approaches and 
theoretical perspectives.

Possible areas of interest could include, but are not limited to, the 
following:

- analyses of TV series narratives, genres, characters, settings, 
patterns of mise-en-scène in relation to populist “structures of feelings”

- scholarship on populisms in political sciences and the role of narrative

- reception studies (ethnographic and/or digital methods)

- re-appropriations, re-mediations, uses of TV series by both political 
platforms and “institutional” actors

- TV series and the circulation of “political” affect (and responses to 
it) on social media

- transnational/cultural circulation/reception, competing frameworks and 
versions of national identities and Europeanness

- “populist TV” and its dis/connections with other forms of political 
communication

- transfers between fictional and real-world politics; TV stardom and 
political celebrity

- industrial contexts, between public and private broadcasters

- interactions between European and global organizations and the 
cultural specificities of content

Deadline for submissions: Full papers must be submitted by September 10, 
2023, after which they will undergo the peer-review process.
