The article debates the use of television drama as part of Brazilian culture, revealing aspects "silenced" social memories and therefore worthy of becoming a source in historical research. The object of the research is a year in Brazilian history (1992) when there was a display of the miniseries occurred Anos rebeldes and pro-impeachment protests of President Fernando Collor de Mello, in which students were references to that work of TV fiction. Our argument is that when watching the work, the public found a narrative of historical culture in which, on the one hand were articulated their experiences from the period of military dictatorship and, on the other, guided his action in the public sphere. The analysis referenced on the arguments of Rüsen as epistemological foundation. Research demanded that, methodologically, other fields notions were employed, as suggested Rüsen to Teaching studies of history. In this sense, we turn to authors who conceive their objects in anthropological bias, recognizing the language as an essential tool of sociocultural interaction processes, although their fields of research were different: Vygotsky, focusing on mind; Bakhtin, language and Williams in the media. The research also suggests a new analytical category: the "collectively shared memories".
