angol It's been a while since I've heard of Schwizerdütsch - most recently in the film Mario, in which one of the smaller roles was played by Julian Koechlin, who plays Michi here. New Heights is, on the surface, a fairly ordinary relationship-family drama, yet I enjoyed watching the series as it played out several issues at once (suicide, acceptance of minority sexual orientation, developers vs farmers, family secrets, rape, drug addiction, competition in the workplace) without the plot feeling over-saturated and muddled, with the creators leaving quite a promising open door for a new season at the end of the first. I'll admit that some of the characters were really hard to sympathize with (especially Sarah and Lorenzo), though their behavior was somewhat understandable given their storyline. The Wyss family is certainly not ideal or exemplary, but I'm curious about the future fates of its members. ()
