You have to have a very high IQ to understand The Samsonadzes. The humour is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of Georgian culture, most of the jokes will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also Gela's nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterization - his personal philosophy draws heavily from the typical struggles of the average Georgian working man. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these jokes, to realize that they're not just funny - they say something deep about LIFE. People who dislike The Samsonadzes truly ARE idiots - of course they wouldn't appreciate it. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Shalva Ramishvili's genius unfolds itself on their television screens.
