The fandom of Harry Potter is maybe the most important due to its rapid growth over a short period of time and to the huge number of "followers" it gained even among adults.

One of the most relevant television series in support of the idea that on one hand, a TV show sets trends is "Sex and the City" Carrie Bradshaw sands for the intellectual modern women in the big cities all over the world. It is a reciprocal that operates here in the influencing and trend setting. The fandom is clearly impossible to be left out nowadays when it comes to considering the follow up of a television show and the show leaves an unmistakeable mark on its most devout audience on a bigger scale than ever. When looking back at the origins of serial edited stories, based on the idea that serialization is the best way to manipulate the public of fans, points out that: "One of the key institutional roles of the serial form has been to exploit new technologies of narrative production and distribution"(Allen, Hill, 2004).
Fandom plaid here a role, too, in determining those who were involved in publicizing a serial, whatever the means were to find new better ways of allowing as many participants in the public as possible and thus making the media change dramatically over the last two hundred years.
