Fascinating Polish series. The dialogues are excellent and the acting is good. I believe it will be more relatable to Polish audiences due to the historical references and characteristic phrases. However, what stood out to me the most, and how I perceive the series, is the clear inspiration from The Office series. I'm referring to the way the shots are framed and the actors' performances. It seems like the line between inspiration and imitation has been slightly crossed.
Jan Pawel is Michel, Anielka is Pam, and Maciej is Jim. The latter's performance is very reminiscent of the character created by John Krasinski.
Additionally, the actor who plays Jacob's younger son reminds me a lot of the character Oswald Cobblepot from Gotham. In conclusion, it's a great concept for a series, well-acted, but it feels like it's already been done somewhere else...
