Vossa Excelência

It took me a lot of effort to be able to watch it (i am EU based). I mean this series is no mainstream and not available on Netflix or any other of that kind of services. I managed (with a vpn) to watch it on "SBS on demand Australia". It was worth the effort and my compliments to the director and producer.

In fact, I was referred to Your Honor made in the U. S. but when I read that it was adapted from an Israeli series, I decided to "go back to the roots" and see Kvodo (I do not mind reading subtitles)... And I was pleased from the very beginning: characters, performances, atmosphere, Israeli-Palestinian issues, jews of Russian origin - to name a few. The story just unfolded in a captivating way, flashbacks included, and an evident simple possible cover-up developed into a huge problem set with snowball effect, backed by strong performances, skillful camera work and suitable soundtrack. Some scenes were not visual to the full, with the next scene providing information what really took place (catchier ones were in Season 1, the pace of Season 2 was somewhat slower). And to the very end, I was unable to surmise how the things end, who would die and who would survive - as a lot and often was hanging by the thread...

Well, currently I am not sure that I am going to watch any remake/adaptation as not knowing what happens next / how things develop create additional thrill and watching desire.

At first i thought the premise was unlikely, but the acting, directing and substories were so superb, making it a good watch, very enjoyable. US Showtime picked it up, made their version, which is way less believable and therefore just tedious. Yoram Hattab, as always, is excellent!

It's so much better than "americanasied" version that its not even in the same category.

How can someone watch the Israeli version in the US??? Thanks.
