Have you ever wanted to live a life just like the people in movies or serials? Have you wanted to go to the biggest school in the city and have a big group of friends? Going on parties with red cups in somebody's house.. Well, this is Skam. Skam is a Norwegian serial about a group of many teenagers and friends.

Each season is about someone else. There are four seasons in total. The first one is about Eva, the second one about Noora, the third one about Isak, and the fourth one about Sana. 

Every season is accompanied by social networks and text messages. I personally like the second season the most. Each of them consists of 12 episodes and one episode lasts for 15 to 50 minutes. Main actors are Josefine Frida Pettersen, Iman Meskini, Tarjei Sandvik Moe, Lisa Teige, Henrik Holm, Thomas Hayes and others.

The plot is about relationships, love and feelings. Also, self hate or bullying. It was filmed in 2015 and the last episode was in 2017. No one in Norway expected that it would become this popular all around the world. Additionally Italy, Spain, France, Netherlands made their own Skam based on skam in Norway. It has the same plot and everything as the Norwegian one, the actors are the only difference. I think it is so cool they made their own Skam, althought I am not sure I would enjoy it, when it would be the same plot. I am definitely going to try them. I really like Skam. I like the shooting style and sometimes it is really funny. So if you want to see a really good series, you definitely should watch Skam.
