Just saw the season on Netflix. As other reviewers said it was refreshing to see a Russian production that wasn't gloomy. Very enjoyable to watch the whole season. The characters could have used a little work to develop but first seasons are usually a little weak. Would have loved to have seen more.

Aside from the fact that the protagonists are a little bit stupid who don't know how to negotiate with people and some minor let down in the plot, the series was fun to watch on Netflix.

Who would have thought that the Soviet Union could be so colorful!

I have no idea why they had to cancel the subsequent seasons. It would have been nice to have them.

Very enjoyable nothing I was expecting. Very good acting and soundtrack.

I would love to know if this depicts events that happened in the 60s in URSS.

I visited Moscow in 1984 and it was not fun or light as shown in this show.

It doesn't matter as it is TV and entertainment.

Must see!

My fav scene was the one with the girl walking bear foot in the rain in first episode, i wish they did more of that and I would have rated 10.

I wonder what was the obsession with the color Turquoise?

I started this series as a Russian learner before spending time in Russia and did not have the highest expectations. Yet having watched it I can confidently say that even for a non-Russian speaker this is a fantastic series. Absolutely loved it

Just finished watching this on Netflix. The pace of the show was energetic, the characters were fairly well-developed and it was refreshing to see a show that takes place in the old Soviet Union without it being freezing cold with dark lighting the whole time.

There appeared to plenty of potential material for there to have been a season 2 of the show, so it's a bit of a shame to see it only lasted one season.
