Any great non-American TV shows?

Cleverman, Glitch - Aussie

Vikings! (Real mixture of nationalities in production)

Versailles is a French/British production mostly in English. If you like historical fiction.

Whitechapel and Peaky Blinders - British and fantastic!

Tom Hardy's Taboo was brilliant and very dark; a new season is on its way.



Peaky Blinders is into Season 4 and huge in the UK.

Inside #9

Mexican game shows can go over the top.
The Japanese take it to a new level.

Outrageous Fortune. Not like any of the kinds of show that you like but a good kiwi show.

Some awesome suggestions, I am looking for newer shows, I have seen a lot of the older ones like Monty Python.

Also, not really into pure comedies. Shows like Psych which has tons of comedy in it I love, but just pure comedies or sit-coms not so much. Also this is not just for me, hopefully others will see great shows here too, so we can all help each other find that next great binge.

black mirror

peaky blinders

If you like the Samurai culture then: NHK Taigas, you can find them with subs, start with musashi... and my favorite an Italian show (no subs but who cares) Colpo Grosso

Peep Show is decent if you never watched it.

Australian show GLITCH was really good and great acting. netlfix also has it.

A police officer in a small town is called out to the local cemetery in the middle of the night. He makes a discovery that turns his world upside down: six people have risen from the dead in perfect health.

non-American TV shows

"The office"

LOL

The original was really good from what Ive seen. Our version is just updated.

Great British show that is still funny if you can find it somewhere is called "Black Books"


Bernard Black is the proprietor of Black Books, a small bookshop. The series revolves around the lives of Bernard, Manny and Fran. A central theme is Bernard's odd position as a moody and spiteful shopkeeper who has a loathing of the outside world and all the people who inhabit it, except his oldest friend, Fran, who initially ran a trendy bric-a-brac shop, Nifty Gifty, next-door to the shop.

Agree!

I absolutely loved Valkyrien too! The UK are making a British version of it.

Beneath The Surface wasn't bad.

Spotless which is both in English and French dialogue was absolutely wonderful.

I also loved the recent show on Netflix in German called Babylon Berlin!

Glitch was pretty good.

Cleverman is fantastic though I suppose it helps if you have at least cursory knowledge of Aboriginal culture and Dreaming.
