Okupas (Squatters) is an Argentine TV show made in 2000, it was directed by Bruno Stagnaro and produced by Ideas Del Sur. It's one of the most acclaimed shows from that country, considered by many to be one of the best. It was very successful on it's first run, but re-runs didn't do that well.Starring Rodrigo De La Serna, Diego Alonso, Franco Tirri and Ariel Staltari, tells the story of Ricardo, one college dropout who lives in his grandmother's shed. His life takes an unexpected turn when his cousin offers him to live in a recently vacated house from her patrimony until she manages to find a buyer.He accepts, while secretly bringing over his childhood friend Pollo and Pollo's mate Chiqui, the Gentle Giant. Later they all become friends with Walter, a Jerk with a Heart of Gold who is Friend to All Living Things and loves the Rolling Stones. While living in that house, Ricardo decides to delve deeper into this new and risky lifestyle, while reluctantly learning the true meaning of friendship, love and loyalty.The series has been praised for being an accurate portrayal of urban street life in Argentina, while striking a balance between drama and comedy.It's well known for having a lot cinéma verité elements in many slice of life scenes (special mention goes to the second episode) with lots of realistic and funny improvised dialogues. Then, reaching the later half of the series, it becomes a crime thriller.20 years since its first run and after all this time without an official home video release (the only way to watch the show was in YouTube in VHS rips recorded in the early 00's in a very poor quality) the beloved show finally got remastered and released on Netflix on July 20th, 2021. With a new original soundtrack, since the main reason they never released the series on VHS or DVD is because the copyright for most songs they used from international bands were unaffordable. | |

Title Drop | |
| Okupas / int_18d15922 | comment |
Title Drop: Happens frequently In the first episode when Clara tells Ricardo about the five commandments, the title can be seen at the back of her card, written by her. At the beach in the third episode when Ricardo sings "El Ojo Blindado" The fourth episode Walter comments that Ricardo gave Pollo the kiss of Judas In the fifth episode Ricardo calls Pablo "Mascapito" several times A dialogue between Ricardo and Sofia in the sixth episode. Ricardo tells her that he used to have a band called "Los Mantenidos" The tenth episode is quite easy since is named after a recurring character In the last episode, Peralta greets Ricardo wishing him goodbye and good luck. | |

| Okupas / int_22b74f9e | comment |
You Talkin' to Me?: A variant. Walter in the fourth episode. Well, he’s not in front of a mirror, but when Pollo gave him a gun, he really got excited and started talking alone, really loud, asking “¿Quién es el más poronga en este conventillo de mierda?”, which could be translated as “who’s the fuckin’ boss in this shithole, huh?”. Only to feel badass. (This is one of the most famous scenes) | |

Even Evil Has Standards | |
| Okupas / int_319e4a2f | comment |
Even Evil Has Standards: The speech that Claudio Rissi's character gives to Ricardo in the fifth episode. After Ricardo fails at his attempt of robbing the wedding ring of some random guy in the street, Miguel gives him an interesting advice about stealing: “Do you know why you failed?. Because you didn’t hear me; You “looked” at him. Whenever you steal some guy, you can’t look at his eyes, because if you do, you feel sorry for him”. Pablo is one of the most despicable characters in the show, still he would never leave a friend behind and he seems to feel genuinely bad about La Turca being in jail while he's free. A somewhat absurd example: Pablo rebukes his mule for saying a dirty comment about La Turca's mother. He should show some respect because "her daughter is in jail". | |

Brilliant, but Lazy | |
| Okupas / int_355007c3 | comment |
Brilliant, but Lazy: Pollo seems to fit in this. Maybe he’s not what you’d call a “bright person”, since he left school at 12, but he actually implemented a pretty intelligent plan to ambush Pablo, and had everything under control like a boss. too bad he did not anticipate that La Turca would realize that the whole "robbery-plan" was nothing more than an ambush for Pablo and that she would tell him, which triggered the tragedy at the end of the series. | |

Russian Roulette | |
| Okupas / int_3678bb22 | comment |
Russian Roulette: In the ninth episode Pablo wanted to test Pollo, to see if he’s still being the same. Pablo putted a bullet onto an empty gun to play “Russian roulette” with Ricardo. Pablo gave Pollo the gun in order to kill Ricardo. Pollo carefully deviates the gun marksmanship to miss the shot. Luckily, Pablo and his henchman didn’t realize this and the bullet didn’t came out from the gun. | |

Bittersweet Ending: The third episode “El Ojo Blindado” (“The Shielded Eye”). The gang returns home, Ricardo’s still feeling kinda bad because of the heavy cocaine induced discomfort, but this seems to be the first approach of their friendship. Of course, then we got Clara knocking the door, but the sweetness is still there. | |

Nostalgia Filter: in the eight episode, Ricardo visits the university he used to attend. This scene makes a contrast between that world Ricardo left behind, in which he seemed to have a future and his new almost-criminal life. Not really a sad scene, but the nostalgic feeling is still there. In the tenth episode Ricardo is watching "Space Jam" and "Pokemon: The First Movie". | |

Unwitting Instigator of Doom: El Fletero del Docke (The Docke's Delivery Trucker). In Episode 5 he helps Ricardo to take revenge on Pablo. The trucker is convinced that Pablo and his goons are just no more than a bunch of bullies. Little did he knew that this event would unleash a manhunt from Pablo and his gang against Ricardo and would eventually lead to the deaths of Severino and Chiqui. | |

Soundtrack Dissonance | |
| Okupas / int_abad35b4 | comment |
Soundtrack Dissonance: Many of the iconic moments of the show happens thanks to this trope, some examples: In Episode 4 there's a thrilling persecution scene, involving shootings, while it sounds a quiet religious choral song called "Quanti Martiri ha Potuto Passare". Said song is part of a 1993 compilation album of varios classical/folk religious songs called "Sicily: Music for the Holy Week" In the sixth episode, Ricardo forces three musicians to play the fifth symphony of Mahler in a public bathroom. On the next scene, the music is still playing, and we see Ricardo, Chiqui, Pollo and Walter running away after robbing a store. Ricardo desperately running away from the police while sounding "Because" from The Beatles. The endlessly sad final montage (Chiqui's burial). This scene unfolds while the romantic song "My Girl" by The Rolling Stones is playing. | |

Berserk Button | |
| Okupas / int_bc74ef27 | comment |
Berserk Button: Every character has one, at least: Pollo: calling him "negro de mierda" (a racist/classist slur, something like spanish for "fucking nigger") Chiqui: implying that he's deliberately seeking people's pity Walter: harming animals in front of him Peralta and his friends: calling them "bolitas" (a xenophobic slur for Bolivian people, since they're not from Bolivia) Miguel: Virtually anything that could bother him | |

Hope Spot | |

Hope Spot: During the final episode, after all their problems had been taken care of, Ricardo and the guys enjoy an asado, and strike a deal with Clara, promising to leave the house in exchange for money for their trip across the country. Suddenly, Pablo and his gang storm into the house, looking for revenge. Things just go south from there. | |

What the Hell, Hero? | |
| Okupas / int_d39e327f | comment |
What the Hell, Hero?: Is almost impossible to not grow fond of the main four characters (at least, most of them) but since this is a neorealistic show about the street life in Argentina when the country was in a very bad place, with a heavy dose of realistic dialogues and situations, all of the characters (even Chiqui, the nicest one) will have their moments of really questionable behavior. Special mention goes to the second episode where Chiqui, Walter and Pollo cruelly mistreat and discriminate a guy who has AIDS. Then they proceeded to make very distasteful comments about it, much to Ricardo's horror. Ricardo and Walter on the third episode are at their most jerkass. From harassing random women on the street, stealing just for the sake of annoying to being real assholes to Chiqui and talk on his back. In their defense they were under the effects of cocaine, at least on defense of Richard, that was his first time and was on a cocaine rush. | |

All Girls Want Bad Boys | |
| Okupas / int_db2f3581 | comment |
All Girls Want Bad Boys: Clara falls for Pollo. Subverted. That ship sinks as soon as Pollo figures out that he and Clara will never be a serious couple, because, unlike Clara's official boyfriend, he is poor. Inverted with Ricardo when he fails at his attempt to seduce his former college crush by trying to show her that he’s not a shy guy anymore. | |
