In the discussion of the present, a turn to Greek or Roman antiquity can be observed again and again. To find there the roots of Western society for politics, economics or philosophy, or to derive comparative arguments for expansionist efforts or decline, is not just part of the rhetorical commonplace. From a media cultural studies and media ethics perspective, specific ways of looking at responsibility, the transmission of values, loyalty, education, self-discipline, and religion can be identified in TV series, which can be evaluated as self-statements of the present or the producers.
