Hjørdis (2015)
Very Topical "School Show"
This is probably one of the best shows about kids and teachers in school. As social commentary it addresses topics not typically seen in tv series about kids. It reminds me greatly of the Canadian Broadcasting Company series Degrassi Junior / Senior High which has also dealt with social issues and kids.
La trêve (2016)
A Detective Series as it's Most Nour
This is a well written and acted "cop drama" at it's it's best. My wife and I were glued to this series over both seasons. We didn't know who did the two crimes until the last five minutes of each season!
The Battered Bastards of Baseball (2014)
A+ for _The Battered Bastards of Baseball_
Sorry to say that I'm no baseball fan but _The Battered Bastards of Baseball_ is one of the best documentaries I've ever seen.
Picture a workman television actor who loves baseball. He forms an independent baseball team in Portland, Oregon, when the current team takes a hike looking for greener pastures in another city. He holds open tryouts and potential players who never made it come for their shot from as far away as South Africa.
The story is likened to Professor Harold Hill of _The Music Man_ fame who isn't pitching a boys band to River City citizens but a baseball team to a city who sorely needs it share of quirky local heroes. A classic underdog story paired with a club owner who's a showman.., _The Battered Bastards of Baseball_ has feature film written all over it and is a film I want to see.
