Borgen looks pretty interesting.
Father Ted.
If you like interesting, complex, morally ambiguous detective shows, The Killing and The Bridge effectively kicked off the scandi-noir genre.
Deutschland 83 (and the follow ups 86 and 89) is a German show about an East German spy sent to West Germany amd is fantastic.
Spaced
The Lazarus Project
The Great British Sewing Bee (BBC). Even if you are not at all interested in sewing clothes. It’s so fucking wholesome and adorable that it’s a massive antidote to all the bad things out there. First season is still a bit rough, it gets better and better after that (there are 11 seasons in total now).
If you like dark humour that doesn’t hold any punches: Norsemen is my recommendation.
Loved it. I think the fact thay they shot it twice (NO and EN), with the actors having the norwegian accent made it even more fun for me.
Unfortunately the NO version is almost impossible to find. Wanted to give it to my parents to watch.
If you’re on the tracker known as TL, three seasons seem to be there with the IDs 2003717, 2003718 and 2003719.
Oh absolutely!
Boris (IT), a metaseries about the production of shitty telenovelas. It also condenses Italian culture from multiple PoV in a spectacular way.
Two favourite of mine! Good taste 😄
Dark. But you might get a knot in your brain.
A three-fold knot, to be exact!
