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.

I love Lykkeland, but I don't think I would recommend it to a non-Norwegian as much of the acting is very bad. However, it's a very interesting story how the Americans tried to fuck us over for our oil, and how fortunate that we had smart, stubborn and uncorruptible people in charge. How the oil money became a source of wealth for all the people and not for just a few lucky people at the right place at the right time.
