Sto para 5

Sto Para 5 was the most watched TV show during the 2005 and 2007, when it aired on the mega channel. The show followed our protagonists who although they are quit different in ideals, behavior and dressing ,they make for really a funny, determined team, which, no matter the dangers they face,continue their quest for a truth about a almost 30 year old mystery.Their first encounter is as strange as their adventures after wards and it sets the tone of the rest series, which lasted for 2 years. If you want a family friendly mystery with a lot of funny ,then give it watch, I personally remember it funnily from my youth and when I bring watch it ,the experience wasn't a nostalgia killer as is the fact with shows or movies we watched from our early years.

There are only a handful of Greek series that provide genuine laughs and afford viewers a witty and well-written storyline. Sto Para Pente is the only series I know of as of late that does not center on love affairs and which character is cheating on the other and so on and so forth. It is a truly entertaining show and from the moment I caught one of the first episodes on a trip to Greece in 2005, I was hooked.

Aside from all the humor, the episodes offer a hint of suspense and some drama. Characters are well developed and the direction really sets this show apart from other Greek television series.

Bottom line: it's funny in all the right ways.

"Sto para pente" is this kind of TV series that turns you into an addict in case you want to see sth different on your TV screen ,sth more adventurous,mysterious and above all that smart.Giorgos Kapoutzidis has turned out to be a clear talent in this field due to the fact that the plot doesn't let you feel bored at all.One thing that makes this script so strong is also the great performance of every actor in this TV-series.All of them, one by one , are perfectly placed to perform their role which makes you think that they are meant to have this specific role cause it seems to be so hand in glove for them.Another thing which characterizes this script is that basically supports an adventurous comedy but sometimes it also unfolds the dramatic aspect this story can have; this is that makes it more special ,the unique matching of drama & comedy.A reference to the five basic characters is needed cause they are unbelievably special and so different that someone could easily say that altogether can create the most extraordinary person.All in all, it's for sure a TV-series which is worthy to watch because it has this "something" which makes it from good to be great. Enjoy the mystery!!!

One of the most successful TV series! Certainly my favourite one!A comedy which contains every element that will make it successful.A comedy of mystery.A comedy which will make you laugh with your heart.

Yorgos Kapoutzidis an extremely talented writer/actor has written a show which will certainly remain in the history of Greek TV.He has also proved that he can handle drama features as well.

Also the performance of the cast of the show is outstanding. Smaragda Karudi as Dalia Hatzialexadrou Elisavet Konstantinidou as Zouboulia Abatzidou Yorgos Kapoutzidis as Spyros Deloglou Argiris Aggelou as Fotis Voulinos and Aggeliki Labri as Aggela Ioakimidou

The cast is completed by the two amazing ladies!Spyros' grandmother Sofia(Irini Koumarianou) an her best friend Theopoula(Efi Papatheodorou).

"Sto Para Pente" is definitely a show worth seeing and is guaranteed that is going to make your day!

"Sto Para Pente" is a series about the mystery that five completely different people must solve, when a government official is murdered in front of their eyes.

The secret of the show's success, is not only the extraordinary performances of the cast or the directors' work. It is one of the few TV shows that relies on clever lines, mystery and well-written dialogs, instead of yelling, screaming and vulgar language used by most Greek hit TV shows. Yorgos Kapoutzidis, whose last work was another hit TV show, "Savvatogennimenes", has done a great job creating a story so original, yet so familiar (due to his references to various Greek B&W movies). Humour, as well as mystery and adventure, join forces to create one of the best Greek TV shows ever created.

All the performances are truly terrific, but the characters of Dalia and Theopoula (played by Smaragda Karydi and Efi Papatheodorou, respectively) steal the show. The director has done an excellent work and the song featured in the opening credits is one you really can't get out of your mind. The rest of the cast does an excellent job and the guest stars add up to the mystery. A show that can't be missed!
