The series have taken their definite place in the modern form of cinematic art. They have a lot of fans. How this effect is achieved is difficult to say. But most likely this is due to the fact that the plot of the series allows viewers to "live" certain moments of the heroes' lives, empathizing and rejoicing at their achievements. Now, of course, we are not talking about "soap", but plot series divided into several seasons, where each episode looks like a small full-length film. At the moment, this type of cinema abounds, especially since you can watch films online and at the same time choose the type of film, genre or country that released the picture yourself. But that doesn't explain why the series is so popular?

All these works can be divided into two large camps.
1. Foreign . In Soviet times, this type was called serial films. Among the most popular are: "Seventeen Moments of Spring", "State Border". Of course, one cannot but recall "The investigation is being conducted by experts." Unfortunately, modern serials have lost their primacy. They are often filmed based on successful Western projects, but without repeating their success. Such an unfortunate example is the series "Motherland", filmed on the basis of a box office project of the American analogue. But now there are worthy serial films in the form of the "Eighties" project, which has won its audience. Now many serials, including Soviet ones, can be watched for free online in good quality via the Internet.

2. Domestic . This is a whole industry for which many companies work. Moreover, there are several of the largest and most successful centers around the world, which have put the filming of serials on stream. Of course, a separate place can be allocated to the series "Friends", which was able to conquer almost the whole world. The foreign TV series industry is so developed that once a year a new hit is sure to appear, or a new season of a multi-part film that has already become popular is shot.

Why are TV shows so popular at the moment?
There are so many under categories of various TV series. They often combine several genres. But that's not it.

First . The bottom line is that a person who has watched 2-3 episodes of the films they like will not look for new products until they finish watching all the available episodes of a particular series.

Second. While the same person is watching the first season and waiting for the release of new episodes, he learns the names of the heroes, reads about the director and author of the idea of ​​this work. Thus, it remembers its name. And when he meets with friends or sees interesting news, he shares it with friends on social networks, advises when meeting, and so on. If we talk about full-length films, then it must be a masterpiece in order for a person to remember at least the name. And the name of the series that you have been watching for 5 years is simply impossible to forget.

Thanks to the development of modern technologies, an excellent opportunity has appeared to watch any series online, choosing any genre and completely free of charge. Which takes this category to the next level.
