From Another Joke poster
NR

Totos, Bobos and Annula, the heroes of the well-known jokes, take digital flesh and bones and become the protagonists of Alpha's satirical animated series "From Another Joke". Guys… unplayable! I disobeyed, scandalously, willingly. Action and reaction, logic and insanity, comedy and drama. Classmates at the same school, they get involved in incredible adventures and test their strength as well as the nerves of others. Their stories? Stories of everyday madness. Their setting? A country that straddles the line between funny and serious. In the episodes of the series, as guest stars, well-known faces from the small screen and entertainment appear and are satirized, as well as characters from jokes that we have all heard and told. The script is written by Gerasimos Pittaras and directed by Thanasis Naskaris.

R20 poster
4.9

A shy and reluctant Theology high school teacher in Thessaloniki-Greece decides to solve his erection problem by consulting a doctor for the first time after two years. The doctor just replies that the problem can be solved by R20. R20 is played fabulously by Dimitris Starovas. He is a former psychologist (now operating his father's import export meat business) that uses company trucks as moving brothels. R20 actually stands for: "Russian 20 years old" which eventually means that Lakis Lazopoulos has to cheat on his wife to solve his problem.
