Shtisel (Hebrew: שטיסל) is an Israeli television drama series about a fictional Haredi ("ultra-Orthodox" Jewish) family living in Geula, Jerusalem.[1] Created and written by Ori Elon and Yehonatan Indursky,[1] the series premiered on 29 June 2013 on yes Oh. It commenced distribution via the online streaming service Netflix in 2018.[2] The first two seasons have 12 episodes per season, and the third season has 9 episodes.

In May 2019, the show was renewed for a third season,[3][4] though filming was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[5][6] A trailer was released in September, revealing that Season 3 is set seven years after the death of Akiva's mother (six years after the events of the first episode).[7] Season 3 premiered on 20 December 2020, and became available on Netflix starting 25 March 2021. Due to the end of the streaming contract between Yes Studios and Netflix, all three seasons were removed on 25 March 2023.[8]
