Agries Melisses is a fantastic Greek tv show about the military occupation

[dimi_pat]

This TV show is making waves in Greece! It is a drama about the military junta that happened in the 1960's and 70's in Greece and shows the lives of different families who are with and against the government. It is a good show to watch with family (older kids) to learn about Greek history and culture. There is a bit of politics and a bit of romance so everyone can watch and be captivated. The show airs on ANT1!

Thanks for letting us know what this is all about. I thought this was more of a soapie so I wasn't too interested in it. Based on your recommendation I will start watching it.

I've seen a few episodes, it is similar to a soap opera because it is a drama but I think it is pretty unique and unlike a typical Greek soap opera. Definitely worth a watch

I can't find a real trailer, but this shows some scenes from the second season so you can get an idea (spoilers might be included)

My first impression was more of the same ... a soap opera. But, it looks like it's more of a drama than a soap opera so might be a good one!
