Het eiland

There are several flaws with this program and most of the directors others that i couldnt watch enough to commentate on.

Annoying background music the generic music in the background serves no function.

It distracts from what is happening

bad editing the editing is so obvious that it is really annoying. It is a trick to make believe that a shot is continuous. To use it once i understand to do it most of the time with no function again is too much

characters this is a television series. The characters are bigger clichees than those in anime or superhero movies and this brings us to the stories . These are at the the level of an elementary school.

This was really popular and i saw a couple of episodes at friends places back than. They thought it was hilarious. I thought it was pretty bad.

It is now recognized as a classic by the production house. In house marketing goes a long way... and i watched the first episode before i rated this.

As far as first impressions go. Well it is about as bad as they can get. I sat through it despite the really bad first minutes and trying to look for something positive.

Honestly there isn,t.

Similar shows with that setting are much better. Take for instance debiteuren, crediteuren. Or the office. Or in a slightly different setting the it crowd.

Even a show that aired 25 years prior to this the collega's is in every way superior and aged much better.

My rating avoid.
