The subject matter of the show was interesting and the acting was all really good but it felt like the writers tried to jam in as many conflicts as possible into every episode. It made it overly stressful and annoying to watch and distracted from the important themes of the show. It could have been much more focused rather than forcing a thousand problems into the plot, all created by the characters' terrible decision making and constant miscommunication. This was a missed opportunity for a show/idea with potential. I eventually watched the whole season but it took a while because I was dreading starting each new stressful episode.

Splendid! Poetic, hilarious, funny, surprising, original, daring and yet very recognizable, very Belgian. A beautiful story, told with great feeling. In short: all the superlatives for this series. I am Belgian, not of Moroccan descent, but I have sympathy for just about all the characters in the series. A true top performance, this production. Bravo to the writers, and to Adil, Bilall and Mathieu. All the actors are top notch - I realize it sounds a bit hysterical when I say this - but really, all the actors are top notch. I am just a little more in awe of Ward Kerremans, who plays the role of JB in an inimitable way.

The plot of the story is original, but not that very interesting. My interest of Morrocan and Islamic culture is the reason I watched this. The show has a good combination of comedy and drama, however I expected it had more moments that made me laughing a lot, but it dissapointed me a bit.

The main characters Smile (Yassine Ouaich) and JB (Ward Kerremans) togheter forms a wonderful and bromantic duo. They have the funniest moments. Also Rachid (Saïd Boumazoughe) made me laugh and is a person you can both hate and love. Brahim (Tom Vermeir) has a strong character and interesting story. But some characters were too unfinished and boring.

The story went a little long-winded and the finale episode of season 1 (the only season this moment) was for me the weakest. I want to know how it goes further with the main characters, so I hope there will come a second and hopefully a better season.

This is one of the better Flemish series to come out of Belgium. Unfortunately, poor editing leads to a lack of continuity and flow in telling the story in a coherent manner. Sometimes, scenes do not follow one another in a continuous manner and this creates gaps in telling the story. In addition, there are too many subplots, some of which start but then appear to be forgotten, leaving the viewer hanging and wondering why the event was introduced or included in the story line.

If there's a second season, it will be difficult to see where the character development would go without the series becoming repetitive and formula driven.

I liked the background music, I know it is not guitar, trying to figure it out but all efforts went in vain thats whya asking here.does anyone know what instrument they play in the background? And also where can I find it?

Thanks in advance.
