Druck

Druck is a series that gives us such a broad view of the reality in which we live and makes us reflect on who we are. It keeps us safe with learning stories and delights us with many real endings. Besides that Druck builds super-fit stories, so real that it makes us live that moment as if we were there, really present and living moments with the characters personally. It is incredible the capacity of realism that this series proposes to us.

In my opinion, Druck offers a less "pretty" approach to the original. The characters are more rugged and realistic, without trying to artificially create this environment. The music choices are great, the story is well told and although kept within the boundaries of the Norwegian original, creates and immersive and unique experience. Especially with season 3, Druck plays itself not just as a worthy successor, but a great stand-alone.

This show represents many diffrent teenages and thier own internal struggle, whether its about families, values, friendship or thier conflict with society's ideals and thier mental heatlh. This show connects to teenagers of this generation and thier hopes. Would recomment for 14+

Season 3 and 7 have a special place in my heart as do Season 2,4,5,6.

First Gen: The Squad Season 1 - Hanna (Pov) 6/10 Season 2 - Mia (Pov) 8/10 Season 3 - Matteo (Pov) 9/10 Season 4 - Amira (Pov) 8/10 Second Gen: Cash Queens Season 5: Nora - Kiki's sister - (Pov) 7/10 Season 6: Fatou (Pov) 8/10 Season 7: Isi (Pov) 9/10 Season 8: Mailin (Pov) Undecided.

The transgender representation is unmatched. Trans actors play trans characters and help write the scenes in which characters explore or talk about their identity.

There is also poc rep, actors with different body types, wlw and mlm relationships, multiple interracial relationships, and more.

This show is my all-time favorite due to its representation, incredible cinematography and writing, and its courage when it comes to portraying the reality of young people's lives today. It is outstanding.

The show tackles so many important topics and the amount of the representation can't be found in any other German tv show. I love ervery season and can absolutely recommend it!!
