The Green Glove Gang

It's quite good! English dubbing and subtitles provided, as the original was in polish. These ladies were pulling heist jobs together, but when one of them shows a very specific tattoo during a robbery, they go into hiding. Into a nursing home. But they discover more criminals at the nursing home, doing even worse things. Can they put a stop to the crooks at the home before they are discovered themselves? It's silly and fun. The fact that some of them are on the older side, but can still jump around the rooftops makes for an adventure. The english translation isn't always quite right, but the voice tones and rhythms are really great! So often, the english dubbing is contrived or ridiculous, but not here. It's a serious caper, told tongue in cheek, and it all works. Really fun. Currently on the netflix. One season so far.

Yes, it has prominent comedic elements and is certainly what might be called a 'light' drama, but the character portrayal of the three lead women is excellent, a textbook example of 'acting' at its best and you should watch this just to see how three actresses can truly inhabit and project a character.

But what makes the viewer support these criminals? It is their innate goodness and righting of wrongs against some of the most vulnerable members of every society in the world... the old and infirm.

This is a TV series with a lot of heart and I watched it in two sittings. Definately a full-throated recommendation from me if you fancy trying quality, light European television.

How wonderful to see older people represented as real humans who are smart, funny, infirm, cranky, sexy, sweet and nefarious. Besides great characters and locations, this is a fun mystery show without all the gore and predictability of all the American and British mysteries.

Part heist and part mystery we follow a team of bandits when they are forced to lay low after a high profile robbery. But how can you keep your head down when you find corruption and bad guys all around who need to be taught a lesson??

I haven't seen any Polish television before but will now be on the look out for.

I am VERY glad Netflix renewed for a 2nd season.

It really doesn't look or sound interesting from the beginning. 8 episodes of 25 minutes or so without the titles and credits. About 10 minutes into it, I was going to turn it off but decided to stick with it. Nonetheless, it pulled me in by the middle of the 2nd episode.

It turns out, the story and characters were captivating. It is an unusual narrative, one that gets your attention slowly.

Three female leads running away from the police due to their latest heist, find succour by enrolling to live in an assisted living community. A tarot card reader who could guess the future, a mischievous and sexy grandma, and a former fighter pilot hide together.

In the end series end, no questions remain left unanswered.

It's a HOOT! I am like letting out this scream-laughs like some sort of demented bird of prey. It is darkly comedic, quirky, off-beat, original, and this show is having fun. Watch it and just be wildly entertained by the richly dark and dry humor.

These women are bringing spark to the geriatric set. I find it interesting that the same general area of Europe just released the horror movie 'Old People' which deals with the plight of the geriatric set in a totally d different genre. These writers took the same general idea and said "But what if it was FUN?! And what if we helped these people find their agency again in a positive way? What if they went vigilante? But with great fashion sense?

This show is great!
