Every now and then, Netflix comes out of nowhere and releases a gem of a show that probably only a fraction will even notice.
The Queen's Gambit is such a show. I stumbled upon this show a few days ago by chance, and had absolutely zero expectations about the show. Now, a couple of days later I finished it and I'm left absolutely amazed by this show. The first episode wasn't the strongest, but it was interesting enough to keep me going and it just kept getting better with each episode.
The performances are very genuine and real, the writing is strong, the characters are unique and interesting in their own way and the overall production value is impressive. I highly recommend giving this show a watch. Even if you're not interested in chess (I sure wasn't!) it's unexpectedly good either way, because it's about so much more than chess.
Well done Netflix!

Skam certainly makes me relive my teenage years all over again. Usually I'm not really into high school shows, but this is not your average high school drama at all! In fact, it actually feels more like you're watching a documentary rather than a fictional show, and that's exactly why Skam stands out from the rest. Every character is unique and you can definitely relate to their personalities and problems. You can even recognize yourself and your friends in many of the characters.
What makes Skam stand out even more though, is the way its characters interact with the viewers. They're not just actors and actresses playing a role. They "become" the characters so to say. The show runners have done this by creating Instagram and Facebook accounts for every character, as well as posting screen dumps from text messages between the characters on the shows official website. Combining this social media aspect with the show adds something unique, that I've never seen before, hence making Skam feel much more real.
Skam doesn't try to be overly dramatic nor does it try to be picture perfect. It's the perfect combination of both and it manages to stay this way all the way through. I've already binged through season 1 and 2 in no time, and I can't wait to watch more of this fantastic show! If you want to feel 16 again, I would definitely recommend this show!
Good job Norway!
