Iโ€™m in the US so Iโ€™ve mostly watched US TV shows, Iโ€™ve been wanting to watch shows made by other countries as there must be some great ones that never took off in the states.

Iโ€™ve seen a few I could recommend like Alice in Borderlands (Japanese), Gangs in London (UK), Lupin (French)

Dark (German). Awesome series.

[โ€“] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Dark was great. For anyone watching for the first time, Netflix made a great website that helps you keep up with who is who with no spoilers. Select the last episode you've finished and it only gives information to that point.

I loved season 1, especially for the 80s look in Germany which I remember from my childhood (Gen X)

Dark lost me with season 2

Came here for this!

Dark was great, it reminded me a bit of Stranger Things in the first season. By the second season you almost need to take notes to keep up with the story line though

I need to take notes only 3 episodes in. I want to like it but it feels like tuning in to a random episode of the X-Files with no knowledge of what is going on.

It takes 4 episodes to really build into the complexity. Then season 2 turns it on its head.
