Skam (stylized as SKAM; Norwegian pronunciation: [skɑm]; English: Shame) is a Norwegian teen drama series, created by Julie Andem for NRK P3. It follows the daily life of several teenagers who attend the Hartvig Nissen School, a gymnasium in the wealthy borough of Frogner in Oslo. Despite little promotion ahead of its 2015 launch, Skam broke multiple viewership records in Norway. The first episode of season one is among the most-watched episodes in NRK's history, and Skam was responsible for half of NRK's online traffic by the release of the second season. With season three, the show had broken all streaming records in Norway, along with viewership records in neighboring countries Denmark, Finland, and Sweden. The show also attracted a significant international fanbase on social media, where fans reuploaded episodes of the show to other platforms with translated captions. It ended with its fourth season in 2017, and spawned multiple international adaptations.
