There are precisely three things I know to be true:
1. Raw tomatoes must be eaten with a generous sprinkling of salt,
2. Showering at night is the most under-rated life hack, especially if you hate mornings, and
3. Hunters may just be one of the best TV series ever made.
The first two are important (thank me later) but it’s the third point I really need to talk about. After binging the 10-episode series in one weekend, it’s of the uttermost importance that everybody else does the same.
Watch the trailer for Amazon Prime Video’s Nazi fighting series, Hunters. Post continues below.
Hunters follows a group of New York Nazi hunters in the eclectic 1970s. After the suspicious murder of his grandma, Jonah Heidelbaum (Logan Lerman), is introduced to his late grandmother’s former love interest and fellow Holocaust survivor, Meyer Offerman (Al Pacino). From then he’s thrust into a world where a group of vigilante Nazi hunters plot to take out high-ranking Nazi officials who have snuck into the US and are conspiring to start a (fictional) Fourth Reich.

Jessica, I 1000% agree. I binge-watched Hunters on the weekend and wow, just wow. From the first to the last minute I was hooked. I think I may even have to rewatch it this week. And I very rarely rewatch a series so soon, if ever. Season 2 cannot come soon enough.
And I have to add that I am utterly haunted by the Markowitz storyline. The way the family were ripped away from their home, the little fella being torn from his father's arms and then, and then, that train scene, followed by the dream sequence. I haven't cried that hard since watching Beaches in the 80's.
Then in the blink of an eye, you're laughing at something so ridiculously and sadistically funny as the rogue Nazi Hunter squad take revenge on some very deserving individual.
And for those who haven't watched it, I know it sounds like I'm giving away a lot of the storyline but this is one of so, so many. It's just the one that had the greatest impact on me.
HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend.
