Sankt Maik

Just finish the 3 seasons straight. Thank you RTP2 (Portugal). Im going to miss it. I loved it! I'll rewatch it again in the future. The main character is so charismatic. I found it original and a breeze from all the american shows im used to. Glad to see good shows from other countries and in other languages. I wish there was a 4th season, but probably it would ruined the show because I dont see how the script could stretch more, but Im really going to miss Lauterberg people and Maiki of course. Congratulations to the actors and the producers and creators of this show that gave me such great time.

The first episode is entertaining, but then with each following episode the story becomes more and more predictable and the scenario is childish. Still enjoyable in small doses. (season 1)

This clever, irreverent series is about a lifelong thief named Maik who suddenly finds himself having to pose as a priest to evade getting caught. The storyline reveals the duality of his humanity; his good-hearted soul hidden behind his dishonest ways. He ends up helping others along his journey while also engaging in some romance with the policewoman who is chasing him. Binge worthy, funny, well written/produced series, sexy AND It has an excellent soundtrack as well! I am loving it!! German with English subtitles.

The plot description comes across like the garden variety blueprint for a show for bored housewifes: A(n attrative) con man (can't go without the crime element) poses as priest and while hiding out in a small town solves a lot of problems and even finds some romance (hello Thorn birds and Thorn birds-fans among the housewifes). Not only does it sound cheesy, to a certain extent it is. It basically is a cheesy, clichéd, run-of-the-mill show, but it has enough charm and provides so much harmless fun, that you do not mind too much. In its best moments it even reminds of the New British Cinema flicks - and not just because of the occasional redheads. The problem-solving is a bit easy and ideal, but it seems that the authors gave it enough thought to come up with charming and helpful solutions to the many human/everyday problems Maik encounters. So even if you usually react allergic to cheesy housewifes- or past-retirement - entertainment (like I usually do), give this nice little show a chance, it might paint a smile on your face - and who can say no to that?

Loved it Funny Miracles Lifechanging for those who believe nomatter who you were in the past, if you come to the good path and do good for others good things will happen to you:)
