The Bachelor Thesis deals with the possibilities of an independent producer in the Czech environment in drama series with application to the author's own project. The first part defines the basic terms and explains the work process and the selection of respondents. The second part consists of four semi-structured interviews, each dealing with another type of series and another type of broadcaster. Before each interview, there is a case study of the relevant project, which is discussed further during the interview. The third part is a description of the author's own project. The last chapter before the conclusion deals with the topic of the Czech Film Fund and its support for serial production. The conclusion of the paper deals with the same elements that are based on the interviews and attempts to apply them to the author's own project.
