The paper

It cuts the social edges of society throughout neoliberal evolution in such a deep manner that you get hypnotized from the 5 th. episode on, as you start the realize how common the chracters, the stories are to your life. I live in Turkey and the government would jail all a crew who ever dares to reflect such life like, documentary stories. Hard core fascism for Croitia will come in the 4.th season I suppose where they'll ignore every reality opposing theirs and rush over it. I experienced these stages of media in my country, same personifications , same deep throat, deep state deforming chracters and as I watched it all day long I was deeply consicous that world is only a village. Some think they live in a privileged paradise and some in the kitchen of hell. After all it is the same village where you can only survive with intellect, conscious, power and will. Or you die as a happy sheep, if you are lucky enought not to confront an apocalypse as a result of your pragmatic political choices and silliness. Watch it as a reality reflection, documentary maybe,and see how sincere, honest, and boldly it has been written, performed.

Big fan of good complex European tv series. Seen plenty of them. The Paper. Lots of characters, all with various allegiances and motives. Edgy story. This would be great if I'd never seen something like this before. But mid-way through the 3rd episode, I realized it was an effort to keep track of everybody and my interest was seriously flagging. Wish this offered an innovation I haven't seen before.

Outstanding casting , great script and perfect direction . The paper has much relevance to the demise of freedoms and liberties even in the free world. In view of populist right's rise in both Europe and North America fed by xenophobia , economic fall and immigration challenges , this series has so much to tell to the world . As fundamental freedoms are curtailed in the name of insecurity (?) around the world and wealthy nations rise their borders , crime , corruption and demagogue prevail significantly . The Paper is indeed a wake up call to what we undergo. Though the story is based upon dirty relationships revolving around businessmen , politicians and high level state officials , it is easily applicable to many nations around the world . Honestly speaking I was not expecting such a great production from Croatia . Hvala. I am looking forward to seeing the season 3.

This show is for all of watchers who love political drama with some of crime elements. It features many roles, from minor and regular people, to influencial and merciless, it shows how real life works, and how regular people strugle to make a difference. Show can relate to HoC, but it is different in many ways, or is high politics same everywhere? Great show!

Great Croatian political thriller, two candidates running for president, the incumbent a sick woman and the challenger, the focus of the series, a devious viscious character, in the middle a newspaper full of happles working class journalists determined to cleanse all the misery and corruption surrounding the political environment involving the challenger, the Judiciary and the Police. Fast paced, with great character development, good imagery First season compelling and vibrant, second season drags a bit but keeps on delivering with quality. Had some downs but it was altogether fun. Big production effort to be valued for a country not traditionally used to make this behemoth series
