"Freud" on Netflix

This German-language series (with English subtitles) has lots of goodies: sex, violence, nudity, more sex, more violence, ... . It's engrossing, but historically inaccurate in the extreme. Kids might want to program their entertainment centers so parents can't watch.

About what constitutes mind and it's immortal nature, reincarnation, its nonphysical powers...regular counseling just can't cut it.

I decided to forget it was ostensibly about a real person and just enjoy the story.

expecting a horrorseries, not history. That it does it well.

Enjoyed it. But for German language, I'm enjoying Babylon Berlin more.
