Moja Generacija Z

Trying to brush up on my Serbian and found this show on RTS Planeta. Like other review here, the show is all over the place.

The show focuses on two different classes that sometimes co-mingle but it would have made more sense to focus just on one class (or limit the number of primary characters to 6-8 instead of 12+). This makes it hard to track story lines, and in some cases, those plots don't really go anywhere. Also, the start of the series makes it seem like Bojana is the main focus of the series but that isn't really the case as the series plays out.

The episode structures are so out of whack. One episode focuses on one event, then following episode follows a different plot with a third episode returning to the plot of the first episode (some episodes play out over multiple days). Not sure why they structured it like this. I thought there was a problem with the way the episodes were uploaded but that's not the case.

Yes, the acting isn't the best, especially with a lot of the minor characters. It makes me feel like I have potential career as a background actor in Serbia if I really wanted it. I am hopeful this leads to some of the main cast getting bigger and better roles in Serbia/The Balkans.

I want to support more Serbian shows like this. It's disappointing that this series doesn't properly end (the series stops at about the half-way point of the school year, and ends with most of the plots unresolved). You'd think the series would go for the duration of the school year, ending at graduation, but nope. It just stops before the students go on their final class trip.

This is really the worst serbian tv show ever. Dialogs are so stupid you will actually feel bad for just watching it. Acting - real disaster. This happens when people with no talent gets money from public broadcaster to make "something for young people".

Its really important tv format for family. Its good opportunity to have free time in front of tv with your children to understand what they talk about. Its also great music in.

This show seems to be receiving a lot of disapproval, but I do not think we should judge it that harshly. This genre hasn't been accordingly dealt with on Serbian television lately, and I deem it important for coming-of-age stories to be finding their way to our TV screens, so I applaud the creators of the show for their effort. Just to be clear, not everything is worth praising here, many scenes and dialogues are kind of odd, discontinuity is another big problem, but all in all, Serbia hasn't seen a good teenage dramedy in a long time, so I really hope this one makes all its predecessors proud. Language the kids use gives it a refreshing modern tone, very 2019 indeed.
