World's Toughest Race: Eco-Challenge Fiji (2020)
A telenovela, not a race.
A lot of teams don't get not even 1 second of on screen time. Not even at the finish.
This is not a race, not sport, it's a political correct telenovela with a political agenda.
Eco-Challenge Australia (1998)
A telenovela.
I get that not all teams can be filmed all the time but at least show all the teams finishing the race. There were teams getting 0 seconds of exposure.
Umbre (2014)
Brutally humorist and real; and raw
Probably the best out of Romania so far; it's a gangster series, with gangsters and people from the low levels of society, so expect violence at all levels, and pastel language, but also brutally humorist and real; and raw; the pov is that of the underdog, the violence is generally non lethal (it's Romania after all where there aren't many firearms), and the story is building up during the episodes, from simple to complicated to complex, situations escalade; the acting is specifically Romanian (where the theater school overlaps the film school) and it quite theatrical in that sense, with some very good actors; and, of course, the highlight, is learning some of the things that are fundamentally bad in Romania: corruption, mafias... :)
