There's already so much TV, and it feels like Netflix releases a new original show or a new season of an original every week. It's hard to keep up.
If you're the type of viewer who enjoys foreign shows and movies, you might be missing out on Netflix's slew of original television shows from other countries.
Some of its foreign TV shows generate heat across the United States, including "Dark," a German murder mystery, and "Scared Games," an Indian crime thriller.
But there are a few that you might have missed (even if you're on the pulse of foreign dramas) such as "Atelier," a 2015 Japanese miniseries about the upscale lingerie industry.
Here are 8 of the best foreign Netflix originals (along with their critic and audience scores from Rotten Tomatoes):
