Recent 5 years or so I have seen several Belgian (mostly Flemish, but some Wallonian as well) crime or drama series and they have been to my liking, some of them even in my top list... De Kraak aroused my interest from the 1st episode (although I started to ponder whether the confession of the protagonist revealed too much, but luckily there were twists and flashbacks later). The sequence of events, setbacks and motives seemed plausible (lots of psychology and social engineering included), and all stuff related to computing and banking was smoothly and logically explained, so the "deus ex machina" feeling did not occur. All the performances were at least good, if not more, and Tijmen Govaerts as Jeremy Peeters, the principal character aged 19-20, was convincing and pleasant (although 27 years old during filming); the rest of main characters were also distinct - as planning a heist requires people of different roles and expertise.
True, e.g. Professor T. Or De Dag are better, but De Kraak is a solid series that can be also watched by those not familiar with software and banking terms.
