Ku'damm 56 is fun to watch. This is a great achievement by the actors and the set designers. The series is a bit loaded too much with historical input, almost like something made by a history teacher (and I say this as a history teacher).
Sometimes the characters and situations are too much "an example for this" and an "example for that". It is still really interesting how much the 50s were a completely different age even though you can see cars, television and Rock 'n' Roll.
The actresses of the three daughters are very good as are the mother and Heino Ferch's sinister doctor.
So while this is no Downton Abbey or Boardwalk Empire in terms of quality, it is well worth watching.
