Oh . I saw Netflix and a white name and immediately assumed US. My bad 

 

There are plenty of kidnappings/disappearances in the US too. I'm reading some cases right now. High-profile ones seem like Jaycee Dugard and Johnny Gosch.

Olympic and World swimming medalist Elizabeth Beisel is currently competing in US Survivor. And doing a decent job so far, by my account, 3 episodes in the season. 

 

fun fact...she's not the first top sportsman/woman to take part in those US shows...Italian (sport) climber Stefano Ghisolfi in 2016 won the American Ninja Warrior US TV Show

Recently watched the Netflix documentary series "The Disappearance of Madeleine McCann" of the infamous case from 12 years ago. I personally have never heard of the case, until i watched the series, but by the looks of it, it has been a huge media event. People here probably have heard of it, and have their opinion on what happened. It's a fascinating case for me and i still can't make my mind on the real answers. Worth the watch, if you are interested in true crimes or mysteries.  

 

I remember this one...really tragic event, especially how it was (badly) managed by all the police forces involved...

 

in Italy at the time they were talking of that case in every news program and they wrote a lot of articles on newspapers...

I'm recording myself. I can watch at work if I have time. But I am not kidding that if I am interested I will absorb this whole series for one sitting.

Well that’s harder to do because it’s on HBO. My one word review of episode one would be: huh?

HBO is not a problem, I get worse over time . I like to watch series from beginning to end in one go. I have also recently watched Chernobyl or the Polish series 'Principle of pleasure' on HBO, but it probably only has Czech and Ukrainian versions in other languages.

Chernobyl. Now there’s the show of the year.

Netflix's Unbelievable is unbelievably good.

Of course. Only I, when I watch TV series, is really top shelf. Only rarely do I have time for it, hence the Soprano Family is in my waiting room. I've been taking it for 4 years to watch it, but something always stands in the way.

I read the description and I was intrigued by this series. I'll watch him. If it only has 8 episodes then now just find a good time to watch.
