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!

There are a lot of charachters and it might take a few episodes to get a clue who is who, but once you do it becomes more and more intriguing. This TV series basically shows how politics and media are interconnected and what goes on behind the headlines we usually see in the newspapers.

It is an open secret that many of local newspapers in Balkan region (in this case Croatia) are in some way influenced by people who sponsor them and they are used as some type of political propaganda, so there is nothing the journalists can do about it if they want to keep their job.

Well, almost nothing, as some journalists in the series show.

It is a pretty good show, and I am glad there will be a second season.

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.

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.

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.
