What are all those shows you scroll through on Netflix with stars you don’t recognise and premises that are so out-there you can’t believe they actually got made? Wonder no more.

We’ve all done it. We’ve all gone to Netflix for something to watch, scrolled through 102 shows that we’d totally watch if we had the time, before settling on that one episode of Nailed It! that we’ve already watched before. It’s totally okay. I’m normal, you’re normal, we’re all normal here.

But what are some of the shows that you might have missed out on? There’s hundreds of those: shows from Asia and Europe and South America, shows with subtitles, shows that might be the biggest thing ever in their home countries. Some of these shows you definitely will have heard of – widely praised shows like Call My Agent, Dark and Elite.

I’m not talking about those shows. I’m talking about the shows with the weirdest, most wild premises, shows that for some stupid reason, no English-language country would ever commission. Curse our tendency towards naturalism and realism, what have they ever done for us?!

On that note, a call to action for all English-language commissioners of television: Pick. Up. The Slack. You’re making English-speaking countries look bad with how boring your shows are. The shows listed below are so nuts they make Glee look like My So-Called Life.

For your potential viewing pleasure, I’ve collated those shows into Netflix-type categories in case you want to go a little bit off the beaten track now there’s no more episodes of Orange is the New Black.

Here they are! The weirdest, wildest, and honestly, some of the best-looking foreign language shows on Netflix right now.
