Salada Grega

Wonderful serie with amazing young and talented casting ! A real hidden gem !

So much feeling has covered with creativity.

The Greek Salad series is a true television must see that never fails to surprise and captivate its audience. With an original story and endearing characters, this series is a true gem of the small screen.

But what makes Greek Salad even more exceptional are its talented young actors. They are all incredibly gifted and bring an energy and freshness to the series that make it even more addictive. Each of the actors is perfectly cast for their role and brings a personal touch to their character. Their acting is natural and convincing, and one can't help but become attached to them as the episodes progress.

In short, Greek Salad is a series not to be missed, thanks to its captivating story and talented young actors who make it even more memorable. It's a true favorite that deserves to be seen and re-watched.

Tom (Aliocha Schneider), an aspiring company maker, moves to Athens after inheriting from his late grandfather a run down building in Athens. He finds his sister (Megan Northam) and they wind up in crazy adventures and meet their best friends and mates for life.

A bold move to make a TV Series in a city that isn't much functional, Greek Salad takes on many political matters and presents them along with the two main character's main or sub-storylines. Alas, it was made possible.

Tom is a changed man by the end of this limited series and that might very well be the best part of the series. This character has undergone the most character development and delivered.

His sister Mia has as well changed but she stays the same person, more or less. Her character is the one to more likely outburst in tears or anger and it is justified as to why she feels like this.

At the start of the series the two have similar but at the same time different goals and outlooks in life. As their bond grows, so will their way thinking and living will as well.

The city of Athens is starting to open its gates to foreigners and shows its beauty and ugliness (no pun intended).

The political elements in this series are apparent. The story lies heavily on the inflow of refugees Athens has gotten over the past ten years and the need for them to be reinbursed and aided. It doesn't enter WOKE territory much but it could very well be considered a WOKE series at first glance. But that is indeed a trap that many viewers will utmost fall into when watching it. And that is intentional.

The godawful accent and interpretation of many greek actors that participate in this series is sometimes hard to watch. The best players on the field were the two main actors and almost everyone else, apart from the greeks.

Overall, at first glance many viewers will be appalled by this series. But later on they will be drawn into the world of two people that want to find their place in this messed up world. And much like their audience, so will they find much more than they hoped to find and aim for.

But this one has many ingredients whereas a Greek salad is often tomato feta olives raw onion lettuce etc .... here we have many more ingredients Refugees Asylum-seekers family secrets Erasmus students EU youth Trans issues Me-Too MDMA ..... basically we have a 360° extended snapshot of 20-somethings in 2023

It seems nothing has been left out ... the lingua franca is English but then we hear a lot of other languages and that is very well-done

The acting from all of the main players is totally excellent. Never bored never boring just a tad ham-fisted at times with the kaleidoscope of themes and "issues"

I saw Romain (that smile) Duris was in the cast and that almost stopped me from watching it. But he was just peripheral here ....

It is really about EU Youth educated student folks and tangentially about refugees plight

Excellently made. The Greeks here are a tad caricatural but Athens looks really good here; a tad shredded but stylish.

Sometimes funny, but often dramatic. The director follows in the footsteps of his old famous films. It can be called the younger version of L' Auberge Espagnole. But how many times can you bathe in the same water? The subject and the flow are clear. There is no surprise. Young players are very successful. But most of all, Yellowstone's Kelly Reiley lights up the screen.

Good to see Athens. But Athens would not be so squalid and ugly. Immigration policies seem like a piece of sauce on the show. The dressing on the Greek salad. You can watch it if you have free time.

It is one of the remarkable international works that Amazon Prime has done recently.

This is the most authentic feel for the real city of Athens I've seen on the screen.

The creators have done en excellent job in transferring the viewer into the reality of 2023 Athens, without her makeup on. This raw view is often overlooked in favor of more romantic presentations or locations in Greece.

The culture, the atmosphere, the politics, the locals, the feel, it's spot on, and this series should be a fun watch, for anyone who enjoys experiencing new places and cultures.

Some difficult realities that have been playing out at the European borders were presented in front of the Athenian backdrop, along with the points of view deriving from the different positions that each player finds themselves.

It'd be nice to have been spared the forced, obligatory political agenda.
