Abstract

The article analyzes the relation between the concept of Cult TV and the rescue of a collective memory through television fiction based on historical time. When focused in national memories the television fiction is filled with historical and nostalgic references, so that it can be considered a Cult production. This analysis considers elements from the miniseries Queridos amigos, production of Globo that portrays the end of the 1980’s and the fase of military dictatorship willing to create a sphere of memory and nostalgia towards the public. Besides, it rescues inside the fiction the memories of characters that reflect real national history facts. The theoretical approach is based on notions of television fiction, memory and CultTV.
