What is Your Favorite Foreign Tv Series (lemmy.world)

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

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

The Bridge (Sweden/Denmark, not the America/Mexico remake).

8oo10Cats and Graham Norton round out the top-three, but any procedural crime show will keep me. Even Midsummer Murders and especially Silent Witness.

"The bridge" is not foreign to me, but I agree. It's really good.

The Bridge (Sweden/Denmark, not the America/Mexico remake).

I bailed on the America/Mexico one, but tne the UK/France version is worth watching for Clemence Poesy's performance.
