Sad and pityful
6 January 2018
Competes with "Trasniti in Nato" for the "Worst sitcom ever" award, kind of anti-humor where not only that you can anticipate what's coming but the grotesque amateur "actors" were shouting their replicas all the time making them even less credible, sometimes amusing themselves before the catch so much that fill you with sadness and disgust. The last strike is given by the laugh track that can even give you a sever depression. One star is way too much as this is dangerous for your mental health should have a negative rating. Not everybody should agree with this of course, as if your brain is already damaged you cannot realize when something else damages your brain.

Las Fierbinti (2012– )

Not exactly a portrait
6 January 2018
I don't agree that this is a sketch or portrait of the Romanian society as a whole , but rather a wise but exaggerated mockery of the poorest and least educated Romanians which happens to be the most numerous only recently after 4 million people emigrated, but this has not always been the case. So yes, if you want to see all the ugliness you can find it here, if you want the beautiful things that complete a true portrait you will find none in this series, so yes, you can say it's something very specific as maybe not everybody can digest a food made mostly from spice, but I can, and I like it a lot, same as much of the Romanians. Btw, this is the best Romanian sitcom so far, mostly due to the actors that made the characters so credible that you can even recognize people you know, making even the most incredible scenarios seem real -like in a American movie.
