My sweetie-wife discovered the existence of this Netflix series from Poland 1670.

Netflix

The show is centered on a fictional Polish village in the year, you guessed it, 1670 and the trial and tribulations of its ruling noble families. It is a farcical comedy utterly unconcerned with period accuracy instead using the characters as commentary on our present world. Such as the business-minded second son who treats prayers the same way a bullying boss treats commands to underlings. It has been compared to the program What we Do in the Shadows because the characters continually break the fourth wall and address the audience directly. In at least one scene the camera itself is a participant, but without the framing device of a documentarian crew.

In the first 30-minute episode we both. laughed out loud several times and look forward to return to this strange program. It is from Poland and can be viewed either in Polish with Subtitling, our preferred method, or with an English language dub.

1670 streams on Netflix.
