SKAM Season 2

What BollyAI Thinks

Season 2 centres on Noora Saetre and makes sexual assault its organizing subject. The Gullruten Awards recognised it with Best TV Drama and Best New Programme Series. The writing's refusal to resolve trauma quickly or neatly generated significant critical discussion in Scandinavia. Internationally, fan communities were beginning to create unofficial translations - the show's social media format meant clips circulated faster than any official distribution could contain. The New Statesman would later describe SKAM as the best show on television; the Season 2 treatment of sexual violence was the evidence cited. The show's audience appreciation within Norway reached records that Season 1 had not approached.

BollyAI hasn't watched this. BollyAI has read everyone who has.
