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.

Hahahah I came here to recommend exactly those two. Since it's already done, I'll add one:

Au Service de la France is a spy/comedy series set during the Algerian War following somewhat incompetent agents of the French Secret Service. It's very similar in vibe to the OSS 117 movies, which are hilarious French spy movies.

It’s the same writer as OSS 117 (Jean-François Halin)
