If you like TV shows revolving around quirky female characters (think Ally McBeal and Samantha Who), Floor Faber will certainly interest you. The show itself is a Dutch production which was broadcast at the end of 2009. It was well received and hopefully this means that the DVDs sets will be available in other languages.
As for the story, Floor Faber is about a self-conscious 27 year old called Floor who has romantic views on life. She has a job that she is not really fond of. Her almost-perfect mom drives her mad sometimes; it's one of those cases where the mom adores the older sister and wishes the younger one would be more like her. And yea, Floor would be the object of discontent in this case. Thankfully, Floor has fantastic friends in the form of her colleague, Clair, and gay bookshop owner, Martijn. The show bundles together Floor's adventures, as she fends off family problems whilst looking for love.
The show was a refreshing take on romance-based TV shows. Alright, so some of the scenarios were a bit cliché and you knew how it would end. On the other hand, it was nice to see folks throw in a bit of feel-good messages when they dealt with certain sub-plots. Thus, folks might end up in a situation because of less than desirable behaviors (i.e. running off on a date on your best friend's birthday) but the writers never promote this as the norm. Instead, more often than not, the characters came around to doing the 'right thing'. Which was sweet, in an old school sort of way.
