You Are Wanted (Season 1)




For those in the mood for a European alternative to hacker show Mr Robot should look no further than You Are Wanted, Amazon’s first original German-language TV series. Produced, directed AND scored by leading man Matthias Schweighöfer (who may have also made the tea, while he was at it), YAW feels like one of the most current dramas to grace our screens, with its contemporary Berlin setting and a thrilling cyber terrorism plotline which sees a family man’s life get torn to shreds in the space of a few clicks. Thanks to a neatly packaged six episode run, it doesn’t outstay its welcome either. With season 2 now popping up on Prime Video, now’s a good time to sign in – but do yourself a favour and stick to the original subtitled version. The dubbed one is the stuff of nightmares.


Verdict: 3/5

Where to find it: Amazon Prime Video
