In this article I will explore the representation of women according to their social status in television series shown during the period 1989-1993 on Spanish public television (TVE). While there are a significant number of young active women occupying key roles in series made during this period – a move influenced by the Equal Opportunity Plan for Women (PIOM) from the ruling Socialist Party and the Women's Institute – their characterisation and narrative function remain heavily attached to a patriarchal view of women. Furthermore, working-class women are systematically under-represented and/or undervalued through sexist jokes, verbal violence and mockery towards housewives.
