Selo gori, a baba se ceslja

Beautiful love it. It's amazing show so funny. I would love to see all over again and again and definitely I will share with everyone but people need English subtitles.

I must agree on reviews that this is really one of the best shows in Serbia! So wonderfully put together with such attention to all of the details from Serbian culture and customs. Lots of humor, fantastic actors and above all story that makes you eager to see next episode and follow the lives of Radasin (Rados Bajic) and his family and friends. Rados Bajic did such a great job in writing, directing and acting in this legendary TV show!!

Great screenplay effort and well made drama. Unfortunately the show is loaded with cliches and nationalist stereotypes. The portrayal of non-Serbs (westerners, other Yugoslavs) is blatantly stereotypical, nationalistic and unrealistic. Even the Serbs are portrayed as slaves to religious and nationalist stereotypes. The division on urban and rural is black (urban) and white (rural). Villagers are portrayed as utterly primitive which could be excused for humor but the author Rados Bajic has made it dramatic as well. The son "Radoslav" is a vehicle for various political criticism whether against "Europe" or against what is perceived modern Serbian politics. This seems rather strange when the character himself is a complete mess (two-timing father, unfinished student, unqualified immigrant - somehow he got visas and work in both Sweden and Canada, unknown source of income etc ...) which is drawn from some type of illusive Serbian medieval values and "traditions" which is rather typical of Serbian nationalism. I felt sorry for Serbs if their doctors, police inspectors, state administrators, and judges constantly smoke, get drunk, and fight in bars though perhaps that is really true. It is watchable but could have been better than a pretentious soap opera it has become.

This show is the great saga about Serbian rural and not only rural characters. Each person is a little bit the representative of one type of the way of living and thinking in Serbia these days , years and decades. The contrast between family past, social tradition, history, economic and political boundaries on one side and human's unlimited wishes to have the maximum of the life trying, often unsuccessfully, to overcome such boundaries, reshape each character and gives to the show a lot of humor mixed with the inevitable compassion for human's tragic weakness...

This TV show sucks. It has terrible acting, low cost cinematography, most of it looks like it was taped with a VHS camera. Photography is at amateur level. Whole production is pretty bad. Humor is weak,based on stereotypes and making fun of disabled people. Horrible show! Rados Bajic is terrible actor and director. There are some good actors in this show but they blend in the bad acting of others. I hope they stop filming it and use the resources to make better TV program. It makes me sad that this show is very popular with children, because it has no cultural value and humor is only one step better than toilet humor. I heard there is also a movie planned... These are bad times for quality TV program in Serbia.
