1670

Netflix pulled a rabbit out of the hat with this one, dropping it at the end of 2023, and it delivered in spades. 1670 is Poland's answer to What We Do in the Shadows, but set among 17th-century Polish nobility who seem stuck in the medieval era. It's both hilarious and brilliant, showcasing that the Poles can outdo themselves once again. I need more of this, and I really hope we get more in the coming years. These quirky, archaic characters are too fantastic to be confined to just one season. (12/23/2023)

The Polish Norsemen meet What We Do in the Shadows, or a proud, and above all accomplished addition to the mockumentary genre. | S1: 4/5 | (12/24/2023)

Having finished the first season, I’m satisfied. Although two episodes in the middle of the series were noticeably weaker, the creators found their stride by the end and managed to make me laugh again. The finale, in particular, restored my full confidence in the show. I couldn't help but compare it to the first season of Blackadder, but the truth is, the Poles took a different approach. While this was occasionally a drawback, it ultimately worked in their favor. I’m already looking forward to a second season, which I hope will happen. / Lesson learned: If only Jan Pawel knew...
