(2023.)
The life of Maho Dilber, a middle-aged single man, and doyen of sports journalism, changes overnight when two daughters from his two failed marriages, daughters he hadn't seen in so long he almost forgot they existed, appear at his door.
Stunned by this fact, he immediately has to accept another heartbreaking fact which is that he has a grandson.
Used to being single and taking care of himself only, Maho finds it difficult to adapt to the new situation and changes his routines in order to become a different and better person.
Maho's workaholic nature pushes him to find an escape from family life and constant quarrels. He starts a vlog called "Mahonizam" (Sadomasochism), which eventually begins to fulfill him, as well as beings going to the Café "NA MALA VRATA” (Through the Back Door), run by his half-brother, Fikret Pašić Pipa, an old rascal from Mostar who attempts to be a sports manager.
The two brothers whose lifestyles and personalities are completely different share daily adventures and incidents with Maho’s best friend from school, Toni Bonussi, a local barber of Italian origin. His peaceful and simple family life with his wife Mira, who is entering an uncertain political environment, and his only son, Marko, was disrupted five years ago by the arrival of his mother-in-law, Granny Andja Poskok from Western Herzegovina. Her arrival is not as much of a problem as her non-departure is.

Crazy, Confused, Normal
(2018.-2020.)
From the dramaturgical perspective, the series will develop similarly to previous seasons. Each episode will have two or three parallel stories that will intertwine in the format of popular sitcoms. The return of some old cast (Sefika, Combe) who strongly impressed the audience in the first seasons will revive and refresh the content.
Faruk fleeds to Sweden to avoid a prison sentence for tax evasion. Izet takes over the Akord studio premises and forms a new political party SPK (Samo posteno komunisticki – Just Honestly as Communists Do) with Jure Zalkan and Samir.
Izet, though older, is still vital and eager to drink his raki and flirt with young women. Petty scams are still what best describe his character.
Dzebra is now 18 years old and has just enrolled in the Faculty of Medicine. He is energetic and business oriented, but also inclined to engage in petty fraud, which proves that he is from the Fazlinovic family.
Damir is prone to alcohol and still unemployed. He is unlucky in love and falls from a bad relationship into an even worse one.
Marija still runs San Remo Café and plays an important role in connecting other characters.
Samir, Jure, Fufe, Jakov… and a whole series of recurring characters will play the same or similar roles in which we are used to seeing them.
