Las Fierbinti

a portrait of Romania. nice, precise, cool, proposing memorable characters, hilarious situations, smart story and good dialogues. an interesting project who propose authenticity of every day situations, having the role of jester for a public looking for more than soap operas or stupid sitcoms. a series proposing stars and social critic and fake crisis and seductive characters. this details are the key of its huge success. and, maybe, the example of right manner to discover the profound Romania by its citizens. with a form of self irony, bitter and refreshing, mix of sympathy and pity, resignation and forms of selfishness. a Romania portrait. or, only a nice sketch.

The best show ever!great comedy.Great actors,we laughed continuously.It reveals a real part of romanian life,with intelligent but not so rich people from the country side.With jokes that only in romanian can be understood.The actors are great.There Are many characters- the mair,the guy who ownes a rural bar, the Italian villain,the drunk,and so on.I hope there will be more and more and more episodes from this show.The actors,the young ones,are so cool!!!and talented!Such as Mihai bobonete and ifrim.New but great names!It is an excellent show,like i have never seen one in a long time.The action takes place in a village with only one police man,not very smart but very funny.Also the secretary of the village mair is very funny.But the best are the barman and the young paysant that comes from Italy back to his natal village

funny, realistic, courageous. a series who seems ignore the West comedy recipes for reflect situations and stereotypes from Romanian reality. a village from Oltenia. and its events, personalities, conflicts, peaces, adventures and spirit. a splendid work after many exercises of humor for who the axis was vulgarity. in this case, the base ingredient remains a kind of innocence, a special and almost manner to solve problems and to define the life. nothing complicated. the bad guys are far to be real bad. the malicious characters - only old children. the woman represents in this small community the wise voice who guide man decisions. the strangers - just the strangers. short - a useful Romanian reflection of image about yourself and the other.not only for satirized it. but for define a state of soul.

I'm romanian, so I understand everything. But the laughs and jokes would only place this to a less than 4 as a score. The sole reason why I gave this a 9 is because Adrian Vancica. He portrays Celentano, but has so many scenography tales in the show. From a mindset point of view, he's a genius who requires again an open mindset. And if you're romanian and understand the substratum of what he's saying again and again (not only in the Christmas episode), you'll realise that throughout the seasons, he tries to make us face the cold reality, on all aspects. Similar to Ion Creanga, but far from Arghezi. Amazing.

I don't agree that this is a sketch or portrait of the Romanian society as a whole , but rather a wise but exaggerated mockery of the poorest and least educated Romanians which happens to be the most numerous only recently after 4 million people emigrated, but this has not always been the case. So yes, if you want to see all the ugliness you can find it here, if you want the beautiful things that complete a true portrait you will find none in this series, so yes, you can say it's something very specific as maybe not everybody can digest a food made mostly from spice, but I can, and I like it a lot, same as much of the Romanians. Btw, this is the best Romanian sitcom so far, mostly due to the actors that made the characters so credible that you can even recognize people you know, making even the most incredible scenarios seem real -like in a American movie.
