Babylon Berlin: Season 3

Last night, I completed season 3 of Babylon Berlin. I highly recommend a viewing....preferably with the English sub-titles if you can find it. It was as good as season one and two. Some factors here: 

1. In terms of clothing styles, habits, cars....it's a five-star effort by the production company. 

2. In terms of relating the 1929 period (for season 3), building up to the stock market collapse....five-star effort here as well. 

3. I probably would not watch Babylon Berlin season 3, without having started and viewed season one and two. 

4. Season three dwells a lot on the coming period of the Nazis, along with political intrigue existing in Berlin at maximum levels. 

5. Drug usage a high part of the 1920s in Berlin? Yes, and it's pretty well documented with the various drugs being used. Babylon Berlin doesn't skip this topic. 

So thumbs up, it's worth watching. Season 3 has around 12 episodes....about 40 minutes each.
