Best Dutch television series

Most Dutch television series are not professional. They are trying to imitate American shows, but they never reach that level. 'De Erfenis' is an exception. It is by far the best Dutch television series ever. Its about a family who come together on Curacao. The series starts very slow, but after a few episodes it gets very exciting. The series has 18 episodes and has a total length of 900 minutes. It never gets really boring, it always gets exciting. Sometimes it reminds me of a famous Dutch soap called Goede Tijden, Slechte Tijden (Good Times, Bad Times). Also the show has a exotic look, because it takes place on Curacoa. But of course, the show wasn't only shot on Curacao. The series also has been shot in Barcelona and Amsterdam. Hopefully it will be broadcast again soon.
