Living in Czechoslovakia/The Czech Republic in the 1990s so much of this rang true as far as life in this part of the world at that time. I would say they got the architecture, decore, fashion, and the way people behaved and communicated down very well, it was so much like what was still around and what I was told about (though in a different country), I saw the remenents of it, this, I would guess, was was it was really like. It was also shot and acted very well. As far as the story goes, I don't get how so many reviewers complain of being confused. There were the usual multiple threads, suspects, and gaps in the story for the viewers or protagonists to fill in. People should watch a little more closely and accept the fact that not everything is laid out for you and that things tie up, or sometimes don't, in the end. In general there was nothing flashy, the impressive thing was the everyday detail and convincing human aspect, like I said, they kept it simple in that sense, and got it right. I would hope there will be another series.

If you are watching from Neflix, ensure to watch from the beginning of each episode as for a certain reason Netflix skips the beginning as if it was a Recap and actually it gives key elements of the story. The subtitles are terrible. I usually prefer to watch in original language but I realized there was a lot of flaws, so I switched quickly to English audio and it was better.

Had me drawn in, once I started watching I couldn't stop. Well written, and nicely paced, There's nothing dumb or not believable. The acting is outstanding, I'd love to see another season.

I started watching it with low expectations and although the first episodes have some parts that seem unconnected or are hard to follow, the setting in an 80s communist Poland city and the good performance of the actors slowly help you to become more and more interested in the story. It is excellently shot, and it helps you to see a bit of what life was like in Eastern Europe in the 80s. Interesting, well made and only 5 episodes. Recommended!

How many shows that you know manages to do that? You think first season was superb..then after streaming the second, you are pleasantly at awe that it's even better...I tell you wait till you stream the third.

Exquisite show that is very rewarding for meticulous viewer. It is like a mesmerizing wall tapestry where each intricate plot (motif) is woven with much perfection.

Sophisticated layout of interweaving plots all gracefully ties up...This Show cannot be rushed, fastforwarded or binged while multitasking..it deserves full attention of the viewer. Definitely gonna be a staple in my Archive of Lifetime Favorite Dramas to be Revisited.
