It cuts the social edges of society throughout neoliberal evolution in such a deep manner that you get hypnotized from the 5 th. episode on, as you start the realize how common the chracters, the stories are to your life. I live in Turkey and the government would jail all a crew who ever dares to reflect such life like, documentary stories. Hard core fascism for Croitia will come in the 4.th season I suppose where they'll ignore every reality opposing theirs and rush over it. I experienced these stages of media in my country, same personifications , same deep throat, deep state deforming chracters and as I watched it all day long I was deeply consicous that world is only a village. Some think they live in a privileged paradise and some in the kitchen of hell. After all it is the same village where you can only survive with intellect, conscious, power and will. Or you die as a happy sheep, if you are lucky enought not to confront an apocalypse as a result of your pragmatic political choices and silliness. Watch it as a reality reflection, documentary maybe,and see how sincere, honest, and boldly it has been written, performed.
Good tv has a social conscience while maintaining entertainment value. Took me a couple episodes to realize the heavy weight intentions of this show but now i've got it. To the point where I can laugh along w the bad guy while rooting for the good guys, so to speak. In other words, see the chess game while enjoying the ride.
It last past the 3rd episode. They kept telling the same story, episode after episode. and showing pictures of an unnamed city full of dirty white tired looking buildings. I was hypnotized after ep. 3 but didn't sign off. I don't remember anybody's name, just that there were good guys and bad guys and when one of them died, I couldn't remember what he/she looked like. The only benefit I got from this show was that I crossed Croatia off my places to visit because it looked so boring and the characters like to plod a lot. I think they were actually tired of being in the series for so long. Netflix, let this be a lesson to you - if someone brings you a 12 episode series don't buy it until they've cut the playing time at least in half and preferable 75%.
There are a lot of charachters and it might take a few episodes to get a clue who is who, but once you do it becomes more and more intriguing. This TV series basically shows how politics and media are interconnected and what goes on behind the headlines we usually see in the newspapers.
It is an open secret that many of local newspapers in Balkan region (in this case Croatia) are in some way influenced by people who sponsor them and they are used as some type of political propaganda, so there is nothing the journalists can do about it if they want to keep their job.
Well, almost nothing, as some journalists in the series show.
It is a pretty good show, and I am glad there will be a second season.

Great Croatian political thriller, two candidates running for president, the incumbent a sick woman and the challenger, the focus of the series, a devious viscious character, in the middle a newspaper full of happles working class journalists determined to cleanse all the misery and corruption surrounding the political environment involving the challenger, the Judiciary and the Police. Fast paced, with great character development, good imagery First season compelling and vibrant, second season drags a bit but keeps on delivering with quality. Had some downs but it was altogether fun. Big production effort to be valued for a country not traditionally used to make this behemoth series
