Abstract
The adaptations or remakes respond to the worldwide success of certain products, which encourages to think of the increasing development of a global media culture. Thus, in the following research, we claim to analyze what are the differences and similarities between a foreign TV series and its adaptation into Spanish television, with a particular interest in finding out which elements are suffering greater adaptation as well as in what way the scripts are been modified in order to offer an appropriate product to the Spanish public. To active this, we'll review the television series adapted in Spain (on the five generalist channels) from 2000 to 2013 through a qualitative analysis in which we'll study variables related to the content of the media products (formal characteristics, characters, headers, storyline, esthetic and dialogues) that allow us to compare them.
