Silver Spoon (2014– )
5/10
Bad casting
18 August 2020
It's marginally entertaining despite a silly and juvenile plot. Fun for Americans to have a glimpse of Russian humor despite "Lost in Translation" issues. But the quintessential cast of Russians characters is marred by gross mismatching of a tall patrician looks Leningrad Biron actor as the main character's father and blonde beauty as the mother with a swarthy short ethnic actor as their son and expecting anyone to buy it. Not discrimination but glaringly not believable. Diverse casting is fine when offspring are the same race and look like their parents but here it's jarring unless We find our in the plot twist is that our silver spoon was adopted.
