Hunderby

2012–2015 · 2 seasons

A pitch-black period sitcom that makes you squirm and laugh at the same time, with grotesque characters and a creeping sense of dread.

Overview: Helene is a shipwreck survivor washed ashore near a small English village. There, she is swept off her feet by widowed pastor Edmund and the two soon marry, with the puritanical Edmund believing his bride to be untouched by another man. But it seems that she has a history, and a dark one at that.
How it feels: Dark, absurd, satirical and campy. Measured and needs your attention.
About: Obsession, deception, identity, class
Content: Strong sexual content. Mild violence, gore and language.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
