Overspel

Not a bad story. Pretty good weave of marriage problems, big scale crime and corruption, and justice. I was put off by the adulterers who were entirely self-centered and ginned up an obsessive love affair out of what could as well have been a month long one-night stand. I simply could not see what so compelled them about each other. They were not exactly a dynamic duo. Flat, generic love affair at the center of a rather entertaining narrative. Further, they were not sympathetic in their insistence on elevating physical attraction over marriage, and in the woman's case, a child, We did see an increasingly unlikeable side to their rejected spouses, but they did not seem to grow more interesting or insightful with experience, not as individuals, not as a couple. I can recommend the show as it gathers intensity and the plot starts unfolding, but not as a great watch overall.

I really loved this series . I loved the story lines loved the cast nothing about this series I didn't love . The only thing I can say negative was why did they get rid of it after 3 seasons I have seen horrible shows that lasted 10 years or more . I wish the show could've lasted a few more seasons.

... this series not working on a couple of levels, main one being lead-casting... deciding on Sylvia Hoeks' as a character that's a working photographer, devoted mother to a young son, wasn't a proper decision-choice... looking all-time more like the super-model she really is, she's just put on the wrong side of the camera-lens in this story... then attempting portraying her as a nice person, and good mother, again not making logic-sense, for along with another extremely selfish character (her-affair's-lover), she spontaneously-eagerly enters into a steamy sexual liaison with this married (two children) shady lawyer, who finds her absolutely irresistible (least that's believable, as she is alluringly-beautiful) if morally reprehensible given his family circumstances

... and so it goes in what appears absolutely no time, they've moved-out-abandoning their families, setting up their love-nest in her very attractive work-studio on-harbor-edge... throw in some family characters with their own tedious storylines, and you have Overspel (Adultery)... also, it all took far too long in thirty-plus-episodes, could-would-have been better in a third-fewer-shows

... then there's ending's final blow, for all-those anti-adultery-viewers (can't say why), but it's so really nasty how selfishness does all this harm to so many, and then gets-future-finalized in this fashion... ugh.

Just been able to catch this in NZ. Great drama, great acting and complex story. Very stylish production and brilliant characters, every one a gem. Subtitles very eay to read and follow. After binge watching series 1 have to ration series 2 and 3 as I don't want it to finish. Definite recommend to fans of good European drama.

I found this series to be fascinatingly engaging on many levels.. I honestly didn't know from one moment to another what was next.. the acting was superb with a plot that is unique .. I liked getting to know these families and the individuals.. it's a great series where I found myself really bummed when it was over.. I felt like I really knew these people and all they'd been through! Don't miss it!
