- Title
Le freak, C'est chic: El freak como nuevo héroe de la serialidad contemporánea.
- Authors
Gálvez, Raquel Crisóstomo
- Abstract
In the most recent serial fiction the hero is markedly different. The main characters of the latest series almost always have a feature that is far from the classical virtuosity, an element of strangeness, often asocial. This article aims to show that in the U.S. television drama of the last ten years the hero progressively acquires new features that not allow the normal interaction with the world around him. The characteristics of this type of character, away from traditional narrative standards are diverse, but all of them are typical of the known as freak.
