Soaps in America removed carefully: the path from the script to the order of the season just doing a most promising new products. Order for twelve episodes to begin with - that's good, let alone a full season - a series of twenty-something - an excellent result. In England, for example, much less seasons - four - six series. Twelve episodes can afford only the wealthy TV, safe in the knowledge that they can recoup production. In France or Germany, the situation is much the same.

But in Russia serials like to shoot a big way: give two hundred series of obscure "soap"! New to the series of forty - and life is a failure, not the magnitude, the sky is not blue and the grass is not turning green. In comparison, even successful Brazilian novel, so beloved by housewives rarely live up to a hundred episodes. In all it is necessary to know when to stop. And the measure of the twenty-series for the season in recent years has become too limiting creativity of Russian cinema.

On the premiere of the television channel TV3 want to say something really good. The series "The Man in Me" distinguished not only witty name, but also a good plot the course, which could flatter the curious onlookers. The ability to see his alter-ego, which opened at the main character - it is an occasion for a number of dramatic and comical situations, which may use competent writers. But eulogies can not close any more, just a gaping hole the size of eighty episodes. Simple math tells us that one season, at the rate of 5 episodes a week, will go on the screen for four months in a row. Little more will take the viewer to view all the series "Lost", filmed over six years of production, but not even every fan will be decided on such a feat.

The plot of the series

"Man in Me" tells the ironic story of Alexandra Polyana (actress Anna passive), positive and nice woman who on the day of his thirtieth loses his job and begins to suspect her husband of treason Treason: Fall or loyalty to yourself? . Here she comes to help her second "I", dormant all this time in the unconscious sleep of the just.

The second "I" Alexandra looks somehow arrogant cocky guy with ambition and a peculiar sense of humor. Decent educated Alexander could not be expected from him that it is better or worse (there is a choice) will be the half. The second "I", embodied in the life of Oskar Kuchera, a woman begins to be ashamed of resignation, resignation and patience with regard to colleagues and her husband, the traitor. Alexander, without even realizing it follows the advice of its second half, and returns to work, gets promoted and flourishes in spite of her husband's mistress. Alexandra Alter ego is determined to guide her to the right path and to bring it worthy of an independent woman, except that she is the heroine does not see themselves as such. But it just yet.

Advantages of series

Curious dramedi "Man in Me" is the audience a humorous skits, household sketches, raises a couple of social problems and, in general, and generally makes a good impression. The quality of video will not make stick to the screen in an attempt to something they see, good lighting, sound, good job costume, even the titles are not deterred. In regard to the quality of work on the show, it can be summarized as worthy: everything is clean, nice, tidy, no-frills, but that's a personal choice of the director and the size of the budget.

The cast of the series

Acting duo Anna healthy - Oskar Kuchera starts somewhere at the end of the first dozen episodes. Initial episodes Kucera draws on himself, while his partner stands and offended, angry or simply silent. For the dynamics between the heroine and her alter-ego is almost fatal, but fortunately, the situation is equalized. Interesting dialogues smeared on the narrative, like butter on a sandwich Sandwiches. Pros and cons   - A thin layer. It seems that the writers are saving them, sticking only couple in the series to not spoiled audience. All the rest of the characters communicate through clichés and mumbling towards each other.

In short, with the series it would have been nice if the show filmed carefully, slowly and deliberately, thrown to the dialogues that are just wasting time, would remove unnecessary characters, gave the actors to get used to each other, would stop at twenty series and rested before continue. This would give the opportunity to say about the show more good as you want, and not, as it turns out - a few words.
