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.

I do, it's not like the British Isles moved continents.

I think the definition of Europe nowadays is everybody on the European continent except for Russia XD

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.

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

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

Honestly I'm not sure I've even heard of a "European show" or a "European movie" in my entire life
