Herceg Novi Film Festival Launches TV Series Program, Showcases 60+ Regional Films

Television from the 1980s continues to influence modern TV, with many classic shows from that era still accessible on streaming platforms today. Noteworthy series from the decade, such as 'Who’s the Boss?', 'Silver Spoons', and 'Kate & Allie', are highlighted for their cultural impact and availability on services like Hulu. The 1980s saw TV evolve into a medium capable of producing sophisticated and artistically ambitious content, setting the stage for later prestige programming. Shows like 'Benson' and 'Voyagers!' exemplify this shift, offering nuanced storytelling and innovative genre work that often goes unrecognized today. Meanwhile, the Herceg Novi Film Festival in Montenegro is embracing television’s growing artistic importance by launching a new segment dedicated to TV series, focusing especially on promoting emerging local talent and unfinished projects. Despite the overwhelming presence of streaming content today, efforts persist to help audiences find quality programming and rediscover forgotten or overlooked gems from past decades.
