Machos Alfa

It is a funny comment on the situations of couples and romantic/sexual dynamics when men think they are "alpha males", but don't even know the origen of the concept.

Its main characters are the men but they are not the ones calling the shots, which is refreshing; still feels like third wave feminism, but good effort on including a guy constantly calling out on sexist behaviors, they chose to make him annoying, but still...at least it was there.

Overall is funny, entertaining and has a lot of subtext; it is not perfect, but opens the door to the discussion of the toxicity of patriarcal society on men and women.

The four protagonists of the show continue to challenge traditional notions of masculinity in the second season, which manages to be even funnier than the first.

The writers skillfully maintain the depth and complexity of the multiple characters, including the return of the female characters from the previous season.

Themes such as non-traditional relationships, identity politics, workplace harassment, feminism, and patriarchy are explored with wit and humor, highlighting the absurdity of modern life. The show manages to entertain while also shedding light on important issues, allowing viewers to learn and laugh simultaneously. In doing so, the show demonstrates that those who are brave enough to learn about and understand different perspectives can gain a deeper understanding of the true meaning of love and peace. It is the brave who are able to find joy and appreciate the beauty of life!

The story follows the lives of four quirky male characters who all have their peculiarities that get them into trouble with the opposite sex.

The series is high-quality film making, with excellent visual storytelling. The performances are strong and the characterisations believable.

Great editing holds the series together along with good cinematography.

At times the dialogue was fast and reading the subtitles was challenging however, the storyline's were easy to follow.

We enjoyed the use of comedy to explore an important social issue, affecting heterosexual relationships.

Overall the series provided a few laughs.

I know this might come shocking as a comparison, but this series is by far the funniest one I've seen since Friends. It tackles relevant issues - gender identity, social culture, couple dynamics, you name it - with humour and a well balanced POV as it manages to present all these topics in a raw and relatable manner. It's definitely worth a watch if you are into light-hearted comedies that are rich in life content and manage to get through important messages in between the laughs and smirks. We are all human, we all struggle to identify who we are, how we should behave, and, more importantly, when to sit back and stop taking yourself too seriously.

The second season is just as good, if not better than the first, so I can't wait for the next season. Give it a chance - I've binge watched it with my hubby, and we couldn't put it to rest. It's a satire, it doesn't hold back, and that's the beauty of it. Enough with lukewarm dialogues, this one is fun and honest to express all kinds of opinions: enjoy the ridicule of some of the situations and get a chance to reflect.

... it's clever-dialogue throughout all ten-consistently-well-done-episodes ... all the characters-actors are engaging-talented ... production-values on-par-better than much-other-European-programming... it really is hoped they bring it back returning it for at minimum another season

... Ishita Chatterjee in her review at Midguard Times has it right: "The series is a tale of four men learning what their specific blind spots are regarding how they view women and working to make positive changes that will make their lives better. As for the comedy, it works well and takes on an absurdist tone in certain situations like the "vibrator" incident at school. And this makes the show more comical. Overall, [I'd] give this show a try if you want to enjoy a good dose of comedy that will tickle your senses and brain. 7/10"
