Extr@

It's much more like FRIENDS but still perfect for language learning! yo he visto la versión española e está muy divertida!

This show is a great language learning resource. I have watched all of the episodes of Extr@ auf Deutch, and I wish there was more! IT is a watchable, low-vocabulary show with subtitles in the spoken languages. This combination, I believe, is integral to intermediate/beginner learners because it builds listening skills without overwhelming the listener. It's a great place to start before moving on to the real TV that Germans watch! The comedy isn't breaking any ground, but I have found myself laughing out loud several times before. A few points where it might see criticism are on the fact that the women are portrayed a bit too sexually and the show does seem to glorify Americans (these are for the German Episodes)

I am watching Extr@ on a French teaching portal and it has been very nice. It is funny and sufficiently challenging (at the right dosage) to understand for advanced beginners.

This show is perfect for EVERYONE! I have never seen a show that tops this one. The acting is superb and I am surprised it did not get an Oscar nomination. If you haven't seen this show you are missing out. I have watched this show in each language 15 times and I will continue to watch until I die.

I was assigned to watch this series for my Spanish 3 course. Upon hearing about having to watch a series for a class I was disappointed. The precedent for good educational shows is set very low in my personal experience. As soon I began to watch this cinematic masterpiece, I immediately connected with this group of characters: their struggles, their day to day dramas was just so relatable and entertaining. This has supplemented my educational growth as a Spanish speaker while being a boatload of fun. The only grievance I had with this show was that it came to an end with a meager 13 episodes. I want more Extr@. These characters were relatable and funny. The acting was surprisingly great for an educational program. The jokes were funny while at the same time being educational. It kept my interest throughout each episode, something some mainstream TV struggle to do. I would recommend this series to anyone who wants a good time while learning.
