Please do not listen to the reviewer 'Crveni Krst' - he has given negative reviews even for classics such as 'Bolji Zivot' as he has a preference for foreign films.

Pavic-written series were not mindless soap-operas that currently plague the US, India and Spain, but series with intelligent dialogues and witty caricatures of common people in Serbia. I personally find 'Porodicno Blago' a better series than 'Srecni Ljudi'.

What is notable about 'Porodicno Blago' is the good dose of realism it possesses without being dark. It is happening during the difficult times in Serbia (that unfortunately exist to this day) where Serbs face the issues of high unemployment, the rural-urban divide and the young generation dreaming of leaving the country in a delusion that they might find a better life abroad. We have the Gavrilovic family where the heads are trying make ends meet while the children are faced with issues of their own: one is trying to find a job, the other is a tomboy who finds love and the third child struggles to finish school. These are very common problems that are portrayed in a manner where we sympathise with the characters and root for them. Even the people from the countryside are hilarious, a refreshing change from Serbian movies and series that were at the time this was aired were heavily focused on Belgrade.

My favourite character was Churchill, the loud, jealous husband who is actually a good man that tries to protect his family using methods that may seem brutish at first sight.

Give this series a chance, it is good fun!

Classic Serbian tv sitcom introducing different characters from all levels of society, interlocking in an intetesting, thrilling and exciting story. Don't expect super heroes hollywood style, this is portraying of a normal human being with everyday challenges and dreams.

I guess humor is subjective and not everyone can agree that something is funny. For me, the scenario is brilliant and one of the funniest ones in history. It is also carried by the best actors and becomes an eternal joy.

Usually the people who hate this hate everything which is ours (Serbian) and love everything foreign or have no emotion whatsoever.

This is a series you watch every night at 8, with your family or alone, sometimes you eat dinner with this and just enjoy. It has a lot of wise quotes as well and the music is beautiful, especially the Zeljko Samardzic song "Srce porodicno" (Heart of the family) and all its adaptations during the scenes.

There are a couple od characters that are from southern Serbia and the humor around them also revolves around their accent but i dont view it as insulting but rather just an insight on how some people talk there.

The whole cast here is legendary and it would be a shame to give this a low grade, not because the actors are legends but because they delivered.

Who ever gives this series a grade lower than 5 deserves money penalty.

I dont know why im writting this. Maybe for some random person reading this, but i felt the need to give it a 10 and a decent review to repay what this series gave me.

If you are foreign and dont understand Serbian, you will probably never watch this and never will find subtitles. If you are Serbian and somehow didnt watch this, watch it and relax and enjoy.

Hope all of you people have a family which you love and which loves you.

This series, for me, is the best series when it comes to large number of episodes in the work of Sinisa Pavic starting from Bolji Zivot. It has funny storylines, best writings, in my opinion, no annoying characters, and in the plot twist that even most tense thrillers would want. Ok, now I am joking a bit. It didn't went too long, and has just right amount if everything. Bolji zivot is overrated cause it was first big series for Pavic, so people tend to say he copied next series. He did took ideas from his previous work, but made them better, and this series shows it. Big recommendation.

I know you watched it ;)

At first, I was surprised that no one has commented this title. But when I came to think about it, it's not so strange after all. There isn't really much to say.

"Porodicno Blago" or "Family Treasure" is yet another of Sinisa Pavic's lost-in-time-and-space creations. It is also an unfortunate remain of the troubled 90's. Officially called comedy, but there's hardly anything funny about it. Boring, pointless dialogs with characters repeating in circles and talking in a sort of Serbian southern redneck dialect. There will be spoilers, but trust me, it won't matter much...

Typical Serbian family with an ever square dad, boring mother, two sons with no vision in life and a deaf grandpa who supposedly has a lost inheritance in gold. There is also a bunch of other minor characters like drunk truck drivers, gigolo wannabes, prostitute secretaries, bumped up grease monkeys, imitation Saudi sheiks, peasants, corrupt fat Montenegrin directors, and so on. Yadidadada... the "story" revolves around the treasure and plenty unfunny mishaps. A lot of screaming, bad jokes, misinterpreted sentences, and so eventually they find the treasure, all turns well and everyone is happy and satisfied. The final scene is consisted of grandpa with shades driving in a red Opel Vectra, giving a lecture about values of life.

It's quite obvious that Pavic wrote this to satisfy the needs of the 45-80 generation with bare glitches of elementary school education.
