Tribes of Europa

After a sloppy, boring, seen-it-all-before first two episodes, this show really gets into its groove from the third episode, so stick with it. The story develops, as do the interpersonal relationships between characters which are thoughtful and well acted. There are lots of familiar themes that come out, but all very enjoyable and well produced. Can't wait for season 2!

This really is a show aimed at the teen/young adult demographic so allowances should be made by the oldies. In fact, there is hardly anyone over 30 in it. It's only 6 episodes long and doesn't really get into its stride until episode 2 so be patient with the first episode which is the weakest. It certainly grows on you after you accept the general premise and ignore that the world will not look like this after a collapse. Mad Max ish with fashion (Check out the shoes), suitable but not gratuitous violence, and the subtle depiction of sex that Hollywood could learn a lesson from. The mix of German and English really works. The writers took their time with the triple strand narrative. Moses and the young lad being the most interesting. Wokism is present but not in your face so that's a plus. This will go from strength to strength.

I'm up to episode 3 and I'm enjoying it. The acting is not bad at all - not sure why other reviews say so. I just switched to original German and English sub. I don't mind the occasional German to English switch, I actually like it. The storyline so far is good. I thought this would be another cliche boring TV shows but the story got me in. I hope the remaining episodes will be good but so far I'd say it's worth watching if you are into post apocalyptic genre

It's hard for me to get into shows in a foreign language and I find when they dub something in English it looses all the original emotion and power of the actors performances. That said, I was hooked 30minutes in! Love the story, while the filming locations aren't exotic or elaborate the performances by the cast are more than enough to not really notice. Tone and pace are exceptional for most part and characters are very well written with plenty of depth to explore. There is a fairly strong sense that there may be some deep, surprising secrets in many of the characters and I truly hope we get to see them explored more in future seasons. Netflix has a tendency to cancel series that viewers love so hopefully this isn't another addition to that list. My advice, watch it all, episode 1 through 6, asap. Then watch it again! I gave an 8 out of 10 because they could have done better with building the world the story exists in as well as developing some of the more intriguing characters story for viewers. They only did 6 episodes, an 8 episode arch would have given ample time to add those little things in and would have resulted in viewers connecting with the characters and world better. Despite that, still amazing show!!

Germany needs to get with it and make shows that are more than 6 episodes, that's my only gripe... Great show and Netflix better not hose this after one season, that's getting super old, shows should get two seasons no matter what just in case they have to end the story if it gets cancelled. It's like 6 out of 10 shows never have a chance and then stupid shows get 4 seasons, like that God awful Sabrina show.
