ResumoDuring the new millennium the media ecosystem has been economically and technologically transformed, affecting the structure of traditional television genres and formats. Moreover, the production of television drama, especially in the US market, which exports most of its fiction productions around the world, has significantly increased in this new hipertelevision age. Many of these productions are included in the extraordinary macrogenre, meaning that they are related to science fiction, fantasy and horror contents. However, in opposition to past television times, most part of these proposals mix concepts and styles from other genres in a new way, blurring the conventional boundaries. This paper examines three television drama shows associated with science fiction, fantasy and horror –Battlestar Galactica, Game of Thrones and American Horror Story, respectively–, from a quality perspective, with the aim of analyzing the trend toward hybridization in extraordinary storytelling.
