gATO sez, “Forget about the Turkish Star Wars, this is the stuff! Apparently, there’s a Belarusian clone of The Big Bang Theory, called ‘The Theorists,’ which mimics very closely the characters and plots from the original series.”
Belarus, of course, is one of the few remaining largely unreconstructed Soviet-style republics (it’s also where my grandfather was born), notorious for its totalitarian hard-line government.
(Thanks, gATO!)
