Sto para 5

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.
