Masterful Movie

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

I was exciting 2 years looking this serial. I did not want it to end ever!! It was more than one common TV serial. We were laughing and cry in the same time. The writer and one of the main character in the serial Georgios Kapoundzidis had to be in some kind of "madness" when he wrote scenario. It seems to be that he knows people's merits and particularly blemishes.So many main characters and so many important supporting roles. Theopoula, grandmother Sofia, Amalia, Alexis, Thomas, Marinela,....and off course Dalia, Angela, Zoumboulia, Spiros, & Fotis for ever!!! I am hardly waiting replying back.

There are only a handful of Greek series that provide genuine laughs and afford viewers a witty and well-written storyline. Sto Para Pente is the only series I know of as of late that does not center on love affairs and which character is cheating on the other and so on and so forth. It is a truly entertaining show and from the moment I caught one of the first episodes on a trip to Greece in 2005, I was hooked.Aside from all the humor, the episodes offer a hint of suspense and some drama. Characters are well developed and the direction really sets this show apart from other Greek television series. Bottom line: it's funny in all the right ways.

"Sto para pente" is probably the best TV series ever. i simply can't believe the infinite imagination of George Kapou. In my opinion Kapoutzidis is a God. the plot is great and his jokes make me laugh for hours. it's all i discuss with my friends. Don't u just love him! =)"Sto para pente" helps me exit the reality, forget the problems of daily life and become more optimistic. i admire Dalia and 8eopula and i believe that we should all try to be more like them 'n' enjoy life. i also like Kapou's previous series "savvatogennimenes". his role was excellent - a guy from Paraguay or Uruguay that constantly got on Soulla's nerves. He was simply adorable!! i honestly can't wait for his next work!

This is one of the funniest, cleverest and well made Greek shows ever. The cast is stupendous and the writing very crisp. Sometimes you need to watch an episode a few times to get all the jokes. The other impressive thing about the show is that compared to other Greek Comedies, the humor is not obvious and the direction is similar to what you get with well made BBC or US comedies. I started watching the show while in Greece in the summer of 2006 and I was hooked by the time I left. Fortunately, I have Satellite Greek TV so I will be able to follow the 5 "angels of Charley" in the new season that is supposed to start in Mykonos.
