Summary

Duality emerges from literary or audiovisual fiction as part of a mythical mental construct present in the human psyche. This research aims to study how this dualism is reflected in contemporary television fiction through the critical analysis of the ideological discourse of two TV series: The Society (Netflix, 2019) and The Passage (Fox, 2019). The results indicate that both series are permeated with conservative values. This contribution makes visible the presence of ideological elements in fantastic TV series, as well as emphasizes the importance of their study and comparison with other TV productions
within a specific broadcasting period.
