Parody comedy designed to resemble a non-existent gritty 1980&#39;s Cold War Romanian police show that promoted Communist ideals. The action-packed and blood-soaked first season finds Detectives Gregor Anghel and Joseph Baciu investigating the murder of fellow officer Nikita Ionescu and, in the process, unraveling a subversive plot to destroy their country that is fueled by what-else-but the greatest enemy: Capitalism.
I admit, I was fooled at begin that it is really some Romanian old TV show, from communistic era. But right when it started I seen signs that it is not - picture too sharp, too good, and worst - widescreen. There were only Dacias on streets, and while it dominated for sure, there were other, even western cars on Romanian streets in that time. And then came swearing - what was clear sign that it is even not serious attempt to reconstruct some feeling of some TV serial from those countries, time. Absolutely unnecessary on top of all. Plus lot of violence. And maybe the worst: the whole thing is just typical American (USA) detective show, in practically all aspects. Sad, because I&#39;m sure that there is plenty of people wanting something new, different. There is no sense to talk about acting - it is so-so, and not much relevant. - I give it 4, from what 2 is for idea, 2 is for Antonia Micu - too bad that she is not main character - then I could watch whole serial. As is, I don&#39;t think that will reach episode 3.
The intriguing premise of Comrade Detective is that a hit Romanian detective series of the 1980s has been dubbed for an American audience.<br/><br/>There is little attempt to make this persuasive; the show is shot in wide-screen, the show looks better filmed than even American TV series of the period, and the constant swearing seems like it would be no more likely in Romanian series of the period than in American ones. (I don&#39;t know what to make of the numerous user reviews that seem to believe this series really is an old Romanian series; it doesn&#39;t strike them as silly that Romanians in the 80s wouldn&#39;t even know what blue jeans are?) <br/><br/>The most amusing part of the one episode I saw were those that had characters spouting propaganda points, as when the detective lectures drug dealers on the CIA bringing drugs into black neighborhoods or tells his commander that he knows there can&#39;t be a mole in the police force because there is no corruption among the Roumanian police. It&#39;s also amusing to see two cops eagerly watching a chess tournament or the portrayal of the U.S. embassy chief as a conniving, overly-made-up woman in a ridiculous fur coat.<br/><br/>I found myself never really understanding what Comrade Detective was trying to do. It had some of the style of &#39;80s series, but it didn&#39;t hit the era&#39;s tropes all that hard and doesn&#39;t come across as much different from today&#39;s cop shows. The political satire is fitful, as though the series keeps forgetting it&#39;s supposed to be a parody of something. It feels like the creators felt that once they had the basic idea the series would write itself, so they just let it spool out without ever deciding what kind of thing they were making. <br/><br/>It&#39;s not quite satire, not quite parody, not quite cop drama. It&#39;s not quite anything.<br/><br/>If you want to see someone who gets east European parody, find the user review of this series by ferdinand1932 called &quot;Historical materialism.&quot; He wrote his review in fractured English that is full of badly- expressed communist nonsense So far it&#39;s gotten all down votes, probably by the same people who don&#39;t know the series is a fake.
