Orange Country
Well, I didn't like much that soap opera. Especially since Misha Barton abandoned it. You see, it kind of lost its sense (and the most beautiful face) without her and moreover, the directors finally seemed to have no idea of what to do to make it interesting.
But our beloved neighbours do. Every four years they give the world a new remake of Orange Country Revolution. The trick is, you have to take it seriously, like in the Big-Brother show, because if you don't, it starts to seem a farce. And a bad one.
I don't like politics, but I like the film industry. And I don't like to be shown the same things once and again on the same TV channels. So, please-please-please, our Ucranian friends, if you have kind of lost the trace, I'll remind you of hat we have already seen in the previous episodes so that you start thinking of something else or just close the show before the rankings sink and your image is irrevocably lost.
1) The cast
With Yanukovich, Timoshenko and Yushenko as main characters the first thing one wants to say is: "Guys, we have already seen you and want knew faces". Well, as for me (thinking of you, male part of the spectators) Timoshenko may as well stay, but she definitely needs a new hairdresser and new partners (more handsome, think of the female part of the spectators).
2) The first winner
Ok, we don't have new actors because of the economic crisis but you could have let someone else win, because Yanukovich's victory by itself gives a strong sense of Deja Vu. And when Timoshenko starts complaining about the supposed falsification again, it's worse that "Santa Barbara".
Besides, as Garcia Marquez once wrote, "she is not supposed to find out, even if the falsification had taken place. Only the winners can have access to that information".
3) The end
I just wanted to warn you that if the same thing happens as four years ago, I'll be really disappointed. Look, even Cuba with Castro forever (this or that, does it really matter?) is not repeating itself every four years. So take care. I believe in you.
To be continued.
