What European shows or movies have you watched this week?

29 comments

I'm watching the second season of "en place" (french comedy series) which is good, but not as good as the first season.

I've finally been watching Broadchurch. Do we still see the UK as Europe?
I think we've been conditioned to prefer the English language in our video entertainment. At least I am.
- Do we still see the UK as Europe?
  I do, it's not like the British Isles moved continents.
  
  Not yet
  
  I think the definition of Europe nowadays is everybody on the European continent except for Russia XD
- Broadchurch is awesome, it's so immersive.

Shameless, one of my favourite shows ever, especially from season 3. And of course I am referring to the original British version from Channel 4, not that awful remake they made in the US later.
Also Inside no. 9, but as an anthology series, it varies a lot between episodes.

Maybe ill check out if rewatching "Black adder" is as good as my memory from youth remembers.
- Its better even

I've been watching Astrid et Raphaëlle. Still need the subtitles because my French is appalling, but I'm really enjoying it!

Great idea, I'm always looking for stuff to watch.
I just watched Borderline, the ~20th remake of The Bridge, this one's set in the border region of Ireland/Northern Ireland. It's not great but not super terrible either.
Then I watched 3 commisaire Dupin movies that are currently available on German public broadcasting streaming sites. Again not exactly blockbusters, I mostly watched them cause I read all the books and I like the nice landscape shots in Bretagne. :)
Basically I'm just watching all the crime series they got on ZDF.de lately.
EDIT: Almost forgot, I was randomly browsing dailymotion.com (French owned YouTube alternative) and found that they apparently aren't super strict about copyright and such shenanigans, stumbled over classic British comedy Saving Grace there and watched it. :)
- Has anyone ever made a list of all the shows the remake or are inspired by The Bridge? That concept sure did well with TV producers haha

The Europeans podcast! A weekly, light hearted and enjoyables podcast about Europe: https://europeanspodcast.com/
This was easy
- Check out No such thing as a fish, good laugh from UK
- so many thanks! i was just looking for something to listen to during my commutes.

"Mr. Inbetween" (Australian, but hey...) Awesome short show. And BBC's old version of Sherlock Holmes. The best of them all. And the UK is still European. At least physically.

Murder Mindfully (admittedly, on Netflix and dubbed into English)
The IT Crowd
The Last Leg

I watch Pointless and University Challenge practically nonstop.

Rewatching 1983 from Poland and the timing is perfect.

Beating Hearts
Late Shift
Peacock
Köln 75
Go to your local cinema, there are awesome european movies running right now!

I'm watching british criminal drama Grace.

Honestly I'm not sure I've even heard of a "European show" or a "European movie" in my entire life
- You've never heard of Doctor Who? Or Sherlock?
  
  I have actually, I was thinking EU more than "Europe" though
- Bro you participate in the UK communities but dont know the BBC?
  
  I know the BBC does news but idk about any shows or films
