Kursadzije (2006–2013)
9/10
Balkan TV show that sets the bar too high to reach
29 October 2021
The humor is filled with regionally flavored inner Balkan jokes and brilliant puns that unfortunately may be next to impossible to translate, but for me what Cheers, M*A*S*H and The Office (US) are in the Anglosphere of television, Kursadzije is for the Balkans and south-eastern Europe. Set in the post-war era that tore Yugoslavia apart, Kursadzije (The Course Attendees) have a representative from the each Yu-nation, even from the Roma people, and while the shows often tackles the stereotypical features of each, its main narrative is a strong anti-war message to future generations that all conflicts should and can be solved in a peaceful and humorous manner. What Avatar TLA meant to teenage generations, Kursadzije is for young adults. Note that with this beautifully scripted and brilliantly acted show, all the creators and actors are from the Academia, which makes it even more impressive.
