Abstract

The article offers some considerations on the role of tv series for moral education, following the lead taken by Stanley Cavell on cinema, and placing the problem within the discussion concerning imagination and moral thought. It discusses a set of series, Euphoria, We Are Who We Are, Little Fires Everywhere, and Big Little Lies. They are considered as sophisticated products that elucidate the problem of morality and moralism in contemporary societies as this concerns especially the relationship between adults and adolescents (and children in some cases).
