Skylines

I did not have the highest expectations and "Skylines" admittedly starts kind of slow. But after episode 2 it really takes off and benefits from authentic settings, solid writing and very good acting/casting. The inclusion of music and rap works surprisingly well, due to the songs coming from high-profile producers. Give it a try, you will like it!

A very good show with great actors. So good, that nearly everthing seens very realistic.

It's often times a little funny how they got things but overall it's a great start for a hopefully continued Show.

I especially liked the idea of having real german talents in the show and not only actors.

A side note for the producers: incorporate real backgrounds from real talents. Sido, Bushido, B-Tight, Curse, Afrob, and all the other rap musicians deeply involved in the music businesses itself. That would be so great.

Thumbs up and keep going.

The series is reminiscent of 4 blocks. Migrant drug wars in Germany. Frankfurt instead of Berlin. In addition, the show offers elements of the gangster rap scene in Frankfurt and neighboring Offenbach. Good actors, Turks, Kurds, Austrians, Swiss, Germans. Some cameos from rappers. Quite entertaining. Cool hiphop music from Frankfurt ( Offenbach). Good camera movements, many original locations with authentic dirty look. I know the locations. Everything is real.

As a fan of another German crime show "Dogs of Berlin", I thoroughly enjoyed Skylines. The cultural aspects as well as the underground rap scene is [ortrayed very well. The characters are interesting and mysterious and each of them have their own story. Definitely a must watch.
