How it feels

This is a Serbian comedy series that parodies the World War II partisan resistance show Otpisani. It mixes jokes about that original series with spoofs of famous Hollywood movies and Serbian films. The show makes fun of a wide range of pop culture, from Star Wars and The Matrix to local classics.

What happens

Potpisani (Serbian Cyrillic: Потписани, English: The Undersigned) is a Serbian alternative TV serial and parody of Otpisani from 2007, 2008 and 2010 by MK Art Studio. Like in the original TV series Otpisani, the subject of Potpisani is the underground partisan resistance in Belgrade during World War II. In addition, the targets of this parody are many famous Hollywood movies like Star Wars, The Matrix, Superman III, Home Alone, Charlie Chaplin's and Bruce Lee's films, and also many of famous Serbian movies and TV shows, such as The Marathon Family, Balkan Spy, Nacionalna klasa, Vratice se rode etc. Podbradak potpisanih (Serbian Cyrillic: Подбрадак потписаних, English: The Double Chin of the Undersigned) is a sequel of Potpisani which parodies the name of Povratak otpisanih, the sequel of Otpisani.
