2015 Euro TV Year in Review: Favorite New Shows & Seasons in the UK & US


Last year was a banner one for Euro TV programs in the UK and US, with the return of several international hits and the premieres of many brand new shows that rocked.

TGIF. For more reasons than the weekend. Such as the Season 2 premieres of Swedish crime drama Arne Dahl and French supernatural drama The Returned in the UK.

Soon-to-launch VoD service Walter Presents picked up several Euro TV series at the MIPCOM buyer’s market this week, including The Team, starring Lars Mikkelsen.

The living dead are back. Well, almost, as SundanceTV is set to premiere the return of The Returned, the hit supernatural drama whose first season creeped out millions of viewers.

Seldom does one get to watch a Shakespeare play performed in a language other than English in the UK and US, but you can at Globe Player. And not just a single play, but several.

The deer in the photo doesn’t indicate a return of Northern Exposure, but of the hit French supernatural drama The Returned. Welcome to The Returned: Chapter 2, which has its international premiere at the 2015 Toronto International Film Festival® (TIFF).

Recent French adaptations of non-“Maigret” works by Belgian author Georges Simenon are on their way to American telly. Ain’t life fantastique!

Actors from across Europe and the US, including James Cromwell, join the cast of The Young Pope, the Paolo Sorrentino-directed miniseries co-produced by Sky, HBO, and Canal+.

The dog days of summer have surely arrived, and beating the heat Euro TV style just heated up in the US with the addition of four titles to the list of those available for streaming.

Netflix has confirmed that French cinema megastar Gérard Depardieu will star in Marseille, the international streaming service’ first French-language original series.

The business of wine can be deadly. Just ask Benjamin Lebel, the wine expert who’s solved many a murder committed amidst French vineyards in the hit series Blood of the Vine.

Powerhouse production companies SVT, the Swedish public broadcaster, and Canal+, the French premium cable channel, have greenlit the new multi-lingual crime thriller Midnattsol / Jour Polaire / Midnight Sun. It sounds familiar, but has a twist of its own.
