Merlí (2015–2018) watch online

Merlí (Catalan pronunciation:) is a Spanish television series in Catalan language produced by the Catalan channel TV3 about a philosophy teacher of the same name who encourages students to think freely using philosophy.

Each episode is named after a different philosopher or school of thought. Influenced by films like Dead Poets Society, Merlí attempts to bring philosophy to the public. Each episode includes the approaches of a great thinker or school, such as the Peripatetics, Nietzsche or Schopenhauer, linking their teachings with fictional events and characters. The theme song is a version of "Flight of the Bumblebee".

The first season was dubbed into Castilian Spanish by the company Atresmedia and broadcast on the television channel La Sexta from April to June 2016. In November 2016, the American company Netflix bought the rights for the distribution of the series. The three seasons of the series are available on Netflix in Spain, the United States, and Latin America (although Netflix lost the license in December 2020).

A spinoff entitled Merlí: Sapere Aude premiered on Movistar+ on 5 December 2019.
