This investigation propounds an analysis of the role of old people in fiction series produced by national channels in Spain. The objective is to know the characteristics of the old people model or models stated or transmitted by these fiction series. In getting that, we have used, as a working methodology, the actantial structure from Greimas´Narrative Grammar. Combining this methodology with aspects from content analysis, the investigation gives us a first approximation to the study of this subject.
