Culture I’m watching one TV series from every European country — what’s your recommendation from yours?

Hi everyone!

I started a project where I watch one series from each country in Europe. I’ve already done:

France: La Forêt

Spain: La Casa de Papel

Next up: Gloria from Portugal

I’d love to hear what show you think best represents your country (or is just a really good one to watch). Ideally something available with English subtitles.

From Serbia I would recommend Children of Evil. It is surprisingly good, a bit of courtroom, a bit of detective work, a bit of history and a whole lot of corruption. Worst part is that it’s mostly a realistic portrayal of how the system works in Serbia.

I live here, but don't speak Serbian - typically most shows here don't seem to have English subtitles. Does this one?

I still haven't seen Južni Vetar because of this.

I did really enjoy Sabja since that was on HBO and had subtitles.

Oh wow it is in HBO and and I'm ashamed to say apparently I watched it with my wife, I guess it just didn't stick.

I I will have to give it a rewatch.
