reception
Reviews
Jan Freitag from Tagesspiegel says that the series also conceals very fine criticism of gentrification when Last OG finds out on his return to Brooklyn: “His ex Shay organizes charity events for the rich in a business dress, his regular bar is a veggie restaurant instead of coffee there's only soy latte. And at the latest when two guys in gangsta outfits shout 'Bruuuunch' with a gay gesture, the prodigal son knows: I'm wrong here! ”Friday sums up, this small, fine series is also directed at destroyers of German city centers, who they ruthlessly Sacrifice for profit: "Criticism of gentrification can be so funny."
