Koobiyo or The Ants is one of few TV series to come out of Sri Lanka that might have a english re-make. The story is well written and well filmed. However some of the episodes lacks credibility that is a requirement in a crime drama series. The series also provides a glimpse of urban and rural youth and their ambitions in a south Asian society where traditional values often battle the modern capitalistic norms in the profit driven culture. Additionally the series is given ta 7.0 rating as it lacks the fast pace of a crime drama while some sections are over whelmed with cute romance. The viewer needs to understand some of the ground rules in a Asian society in order to enjoy the series to its fullest.
