Eigen Kweek
was a 2013-2019 Belgian crime comedy television series on the Belgian channel Eén. It was the most watched TV programme in Flanders in 2013. The show revolves around a family of local Belgian potato farmers, who lost all their money and try to win it back by growing cannabis. For this reason, it has been called "the Breaking Bad of Flanders". Languages The main language in the series is not the standard Dutch spoken in Belgium (Flemish) but West Flemish, a dialect in the province of West Flanders. As a few characters are from the Philippines, Filipino is also spoken. In order to communicate with them, the locals also speak English with a very strong Flemish accent. Dunglish is used extensively throughout the series, especially by Frank. This English interspersed with (West) Flemish pronunciations was appreciated by the viewers of Eigen Kweek. Eén responded to this popularity on its website with a 'soundboard' collecting Frank's most striking statements. Parts of the third season take place in the French Flanders and therefore French is also spoken. Only conversations in Filipino have subtitles.
