TJC is proud to present the U.S. Television Premiere of Srugim, the most talked-about series on Israeli TV!
Applauded for its true-to-life and nuanced portrayal of the modern-Orthodox community in Israel, Srugim follows five single friends looking for love in Jerusalem, while adhering to a religious lifestyle. (The title “Srugim” refers to the style of knit skullcap that is often worn by modern-Orthodox men in Israel.)
Rave reviews describe the series as “groundbreaking” (Israelity.com), “refreshing and clever” (Jerusalem.com), and “hugely popular among religious and secular Israelis alike” (Ynet News).
The 15 complete episodes of “Srugim” Season 1, with English subtitles, will be available in the TJC Original Series category beginning February 1st, 2010, with the U.S. premiere of Episode 1. Subsequent episodes will be available each week, with episode 2 premiering February 10th, episode 3 premiering February 17th, episode 4 premiering February 24th, and so forth. Each episode will be available for five weeks at a time.
Srugim 01. U.S. television premiere of Israel’s most popular dramatic series! Meet roommates Yifat and Hodaya, and their friends Reut, Nati and Amir — five modern-Orthodox singles looking for love in Jerusalem as they approach the big 3-0. Premieres February 1st!
Srugim 02. Relationships get more complicated on Israel’s hit dramatic series! Nati seeks refuge from bachelorhood at Yifat’s place, but will she get the wrong idea? Hodaya faces a religious crisis, while Amir reads into Reut’s request that he fix her bed. Watch a new episode every Saturday night on TJC!
Srugim 03. The plots thicken and boundaries are tested. Hodaya meets a handsome stranger on the bus — will she cave in to curiosity? Amir’s divorce puts his job in jeopardy, so he hatches a plan with Reut, and Yifat finds a way to confess her feelings for Nati…if he’s open enough to see it.
Srugim 04. Kosher observance is tested in more ways than one. Hodaya starts dating her non-religious crush, which puts her into some compromising situations. Nati suspects the hospital cafeteria’s kosher certification, and Yifat pursues a date with one of her clients.
Srugim 05. Dating gets confusing when Amir asks out Reut’s younger sister, Nati hijacks Amir’s internet dating account and gets into a pickle, and Yifat goes on a blind date with a not-so-mysterious stranger. Hodaya gets in trouble.
