I am almost sure I found a full episode from Season 2 yesterday, but I can't find it today!

I love this show but I haven't seen anything about a 2nd season premiere. I don't have a tv so I don't see the ads about what's coming soon, but I liked their page on Facebook so I'd be able to see when they announce the premiere. So far they've posted a lot of behind the scenes stuff about filming season 2 but nothing about the premiere. I can't wait!

I thought this serie was terrible, full of cliches and stigmas. I don't think it portrays the orthodox community in a positive light at all, and I do not think it is authentic.
You will definitely find people with certain traits here or there, but to have such a condense of bad people, calculating, manipulative, tricky, interested, full of themselves is quite nauseating.

I thought it was great. To each their own.

My husband grew up Haredi in Jerusalem and said it seemed very authentic to him, meaning the characters seemed like real people with inner lives.
Of course the stories are going to more interesting than our normal lives, it has to be in order to be on TV! I didn't find find it stereotypical or stigmatizing at all; even the "bad" characters were humanized and complex.

I know you would rather have it online, but if they ship it- you can watch in a few days.

It is one of the most beautiful, deeply moving series I have ever seen. So realistic, so clean.. .

The new season is coming out in the fall.

deeply moving? how so? I also found it extremely not realistic. The story lines were extremely not believable in the charedi world.
But even that all being said, I really enjoyed the season.

I just started watching this from Season 1. Found the first two episodes on YouTube with Hebrew subtitles. Anyone know where I can find the next episodes online? I don't need english subtitles if I can get hebrew subtitles.
