Twenty years after their hit sketch comedy show "HaYisre'elim" (The Israelis) first aired, the Israeli comedy trio Ma Kashar is set to reunite for a new season of the program. The show, which became one of their most identifiable works, will be broadcast on Reshet 13. The original series, launched two decades ago, introduced a host of characters, sketches, and catchphrases that became ingrained in Israeli culture.
The trio, consisting of Tzion Baruch, Assi Israelov, and Shalom Michaelashvili, plans to revive beloved characters from the original run alongside new ones designed to capture the essence of Israeli life in 2027. The article suggests that in a current Israeli reality that feels like an episode of "Black Mirror," audiences are craving the escapism that Ma Kashar excels at providing.
Memorable characters from the past include Haim the unemployed man with a rock addiction, the Lebanese lion tamer, and the couple Rivi and Rami, where Rami consistently fails to remember his partner only wants tahini, famously exclaiming "Shemot yevesh" (Don't be dry). The return of these characters is expected to evoke a sense of nostalgia for viewers, at least on their television screens.
