Family Secrets

Funny, Jaw dropping and worthy of a binge watch ! The characters take you on a roller Coaster ride all during a wedding! It goes back and forth in time giving you a different perspective each time. It's a thrill ride sigh some comedy mixed it ! I need a season 2!!!!!! The reverend and the nuns at the wedding were comic relief ! I honestly changed my opinion on the characters a dozen times lol I would be thinking one guy was causing all The trouble then a different flash back would change my mind . I think my jaw fell open several times in pure astonishment over the choices made by characters. A little bit of nudity and some blood .. but when played in English I don't recall cursing . One big negative was the medical students and the dr's smoking ! This is present day settings and medical personal know better now .

This is one of the best miniseries I've seen lately, it manages brilliantly to keep the interest, the suspense, there's a surprise at every corner. Family and couples, all intertwined in an entertaining way.

Mostly a comedy, but with lots of the drama that comes always with the family theme; then we have almost a thriller at times, a sense of danger, but there's constantly a good feeling about the characters and their struggles, a hope that it will all be fine.

And that wedding...it seems that it will never happen, all kind of elements show up and interrupt, like a neverending story....there's something strange in the air, besides love.

Total waste of time. Completely unrealistic plot, poor dialogues and characters making increasingly stupid decisions. Started well, first two episodes were interesting and funny but it went downhill from there, and the convention of the series changed from a pleasant comedy to a very poor mix of absurd comedy, bloody drama and pure nonsense. The series mixes timelines/jumps back and forth between events - I imagine the idea was to let the viewer make up their mind about characters and events, to then make them reevaluate their opinions by revealing new facts and viewpoints - but it failed miserably. Characters would have to be sociopaths and have extremely bad selective amnesia to make it all tie up in any way.

Hilarious at first, very dissfunctional families with interesting plot mixing, but the closer to end you get, the more dissappinting it is. Not worth investing your time.

This series is set in Poland, Warsaw (mostly) with interesting settings, albeit everyone seems to be quite rich :-) Actors are playing well and technically it is very well made including sound and music. Polish productions are often lacking in sound quality (especially dialogs), but this one is actually impressive.

If the screenwriter(s) and director have done a good job with the final episodes, it would be a much different review (at least 7 out of 10). Maybe not Game of Thrones bad, but makes you feel you have lost time put into learning the story.

Older viewers will remember Soap the 80s comedy take on Soap Operas. This is a more serious, better acted, sharper scripted and beautifully filmed re-imagining. Yes it is farce-like (and the leapimg about in time is confusing to start but it does start to make sense se eventually so stick with it) so those saying it is unreal are missing the point. As well as some very funny scenes, there are surprisingly tender and moving parts. Don't watch the dubbed version. You always miss out if you don't have the a ties own voices. There are many very good actors in this ensemble. We really enjoyed it. Europeans seem to make really thoughtful television . I hope there is a second series. Highly recommendend.
