Salade grecque

This is the most authentic feel for the real city of Athens I've seen on the screen.

The creators have done en excellent job in transferring the viewer into the reality of 2023 Athens, without her makeup on. This raw view is often overlooked in favor of more romantic presentations or locations in Greece.

The culture, the atmosphere, the politics, the locals, the feel, it's spot on, and this series should be a fun watch, for anyone who enjoys experiencing new places and cultures.

Some difficult realities that have been playing out at the European borders were presented in front of the Athenian backdrop, along with the points of view deriving from the different positions that each player finds themselves.

It'd be nice to have been spared the forced, obligatory political agenda.

I was a fan of the original film and subsequent sequels that followed. A great trilogy.

When this series was announced, I had mixed feelings, but I didn't enjoy the New York City setting of the third film, so I was glad we could see what happened afterwards.

I was pleasantly surprised with a strong 8 episodes tackling the immigration crisis in Europe and how it has affected the world in general, even today in 2024 we are still being polarized over mass migration and I think Klapisch did a great job handling the topic in a more human and personal way. The new characters, headed by the children of Xavier and Wendy was great, and showing us Isabelle still with her new wife as well as Tobias making a comeback was great for the nostalgic feels for us fans of the series. Athens as the chosen city was a big win for me. Hopefully we get a sequel, maybe in Mexico City where "gentrification" from developed countries has been causing conflicts, especially with a polarizing president that they have today, a migrant crisis from central and South America, rich getting richer and poor getting way poorer in this megalopolis, or maybe in Brazil (even though this would be too cliche) or Thailand or Bali where there are many cultures also mixing into one entity. I really hope they continue with the children of Xavier and Wendy and that we get to see Martina and her family in the future as well!

But this one has many ingredients whereas a Greek salad is often tomato feta olives raw onion lettuce etc .... here we have many more ingredients Refugees Asylum-seekers family secrets Erasmus students EU youth Trans issues Me-Too MDMA ..... basically we have a 360° extended snapshot of 20-somethings in 2023

It seems nothing has been left out ... the lingua franca is English but then we hear a lot of other languages and that is very well-done

The acting from all of the main players is totally excellent. Never bored never boring just a tad ham-fisted at times with the kaleidoscope of themes and "issues"

I saw Romain (that smile) Duris was in the cast and that almost stopped me from watching it. But he was just peripheral here ....

It is really about EU Youth educated student folks and tangentially about refugees plight

Excellently made. The Greeks here are a tad caricatural but Athens looks really good here; a tad shredded but stylish.

Wonderful serie with amazing young and talented casting ! A real hidden gem !

So much feeling has covered with creativity.

The Greek Salad series is a true television must see that never fails to surprise and captivate its audience. With an original story and endearing characters, this series is a true gem of the small screen.

But what makes Greek Salad even more exceptional are its talented young actors. They are all incredibly gifted and bring an energy and freshness to the series that make it even more addictive. Each of the actors is perfectly cast for their role and brings a personal touch to their character. Their acting is natural and convincing, and one can't help but become attached to them as the episodes progress.

In short, Greek Salad is a series not to be missed, thanks to its captivating story and talented young actors who make it even more memorable. It's a true favorite that deserves to be seen and re-watched.

Sometimes funny, but often dramatic. The director follows in the footsteps of his old famous films. It can be called the younger version of L' Auberge Espagnole. But how many times can you bathe in the same water? The subject and the flow are clear. There is no surprise. Young players are very successful. But most of all, Yellowstone's Kelly Reiley lights up the screen.

Good to see Athens. But Athens would not be so squalid and ugly. Immigration policies seem like a piece of sauce on the show. The dressing on the Greek salad. You can watch it if you have free time.

It is one of the remarkable international works that Amazon Prime has done recently.
