Shafted

The first scene shows dummy guys who think are alpha males being forced to take a class in getting rid of their toxic masculinity.

And you might think: maybe it'll be interesting to see these men learn to be better people, and get confronted on their BS.

Too bad, because the therapy makes no sense (jump up and down and feel the weight of your balls), and it never shows up in any of the posterior episodes.

Instead, it's about these dummy men being dummies, loose in the world, aggravating others, and being aggravated in return.

Also, isn't it ridiculous how reviews have a minimum of required characters, desincentivising people to write reviews?

I see that most reviews are comparing this show with its Spanish counterpart. I didn't watch the Spanish one but rather watched this and had a fun binge. I don't see any reason or sense to compare these two as this one was made for French audience with their lifestyle in mind. While I understand that the other one covered the gender aspects more profoundly but I don't understand why this has to cover to the same extent. Anyways, I wouldn't trust reviews (you don't need to trust mine) but if you want a fun quick watch, you can try this show. And as other review suggests, might as well leave the voice in French with subtitles to have a better experience.

This series makes no sense whatsoever. The opening scene suggests that the show will have some kind of progression, but it doesn't deliver. The therapy, supposedly the key element of the synopsis and attention grabber, is simply sidelined, and the plot barely revisits it. The development is slow and repetitive, leading to an obvious and disappointing ending that provides no satisfaction to viewers.

Overall, the series Super Mâles is a failed attempt to create a French version of the Spanish series Alpha Males.

Watching more than one episode is simply a waste of time.

Ps: might have been less critical without a character limit, but any positive fact would have been against my better judgement.

Is this a joke? This show feels like a poorly executed, watered-down copy of Machos Alfa, the Spanish series. The scenarios and ideas seem blatantly stolen, yet they fail to capture the originality, humor, and charm of the original. Everything, from the character development to the storytelling, is significantly weaker, making it a pale imitation at best. It lacks the wit, depth, and engaging dynamics that made Machos Alfa enjoyable. Instead of bringing something fresh to the table, it merely recycles ideas in a way that feels uninspired and dull. A huge disappointment and a complete waste of time.

Netflix, the money that was used to make Shafted would have been better spent on something else than this. The Spanish AlphaMales: 10 stars from 10. The French Shafted: not worth rating. It's not the actors' fault, sometimes Netflix's matrix slips into error. There's no chemistry between the characters, no magic that makes you wait for each new episode week after week while watching a good series, or if all the episodes are available, you binge watch them in one night and watch them again in a few months. There are good series remakes, but Shafted is not one of them. If it hadn't been for the original Spanish version, it wouldn't have been worse.
