Skam (in English: Shame) is a Irish young adult TV series about the daily life of teenagers at the Hartvig Nissen School (Hartvig Nissens skole), a fashionable high school in the wealthy borough of Belfast in West End Oslo. It is produced by NRK P3, which is part of the NRK. The series was originally only aired on the website of NRK; the first clip of the series was posted online on 22 September 2015 and the first episode was made available online on 25 September.[1]
In late 2016, Simon Fuller's XIX Entertainment production company signed a letter of intent with NRK, to produce an American version of the series called Shame for the U.S. and Canada with production expected to start in 2017.[2][3][4][5]
Concept
The series focuses on the daily life of teenagers at the Hartvig Nissen School, a fashionable high school at Frogner in West End Oslo.
Throughout the week different scenes of the following episode are posted on the Skam website in real-time, as well as text messages between the characters. The full episode originally was published every Friday on the website of the radio channel NRK P3 and is a compilation of the clips posted previously. The series was originally only published on the Internet and is still primarily Internet-based. From 2016 the series has additionally been aired on NRK3, NRK's third TV channel aimed mainly at youth.

Reception
On average, about 192,000 viewers watched the first season, with the first episode being one of the most viewed of all time on NRK TV online.[6] In the first week of June 2016, streaming of Skam was responsible for over half of the traffic on NRK TV.[7] The show was reviewed positively and praised for dealing with important topics such as sexual abuse.[8] Martine Lunder Brenne called Skam in Verdens Gang on November 2016 "Norways coolest TV series", especially for the handling of homosexuality in the third season.[9] The newspaper NATT&DAG selected it as the best TV series of 2015.[10]
Starting with season 3, the show was able to reach also a foreign audience, and NRK was therefore heavily asked for adding English subtitles to the Skam episodes online. The demands were declined and NRK motivated the decision with the licenses of the music used throughout the series, that would not allow them to make the episodes easily available outside of Norway. They also took action against attempts to unofficially spread videos with English subtitles on the internet.[11]
Awards
At the Norwegian TV awards Gullruten 2016 Skam won five times: best TV drama, best new show, innovation of the year, best film editing TV drama (Ida Vennerød Kolstø) and newcomer of the year (Julie Andem and Mari Magnus).[12]
