For a long time, Udi has done as a garden with "Messiah", since it emerged as a network series, moved to Cellcom TV and Keshet, and penetrated the Israeli mainstream. If Messiah (the figure) had reached such a success, he probably would have gone crazy.

It took quite a while for a second season of "Messiah" to be produced, and last night it finally aired and brought the madness back on screen.

Udi Kagan, who is leading the cast, continues to entertain local tourists and diners, with Merav (Dana Ivgy) pregnant and with a severe "stupidity of pregnancy" that makes her forget almost everything - precisely the day British tourists come. Messiah opens a string of songs from the United Kingdom and sings with his characteristic goofiness, almost smuggling tourists.

Kagan cracked the system. He created Messiah, and there in his mouth a language detached from reality and time, into which he molded his anachronism. A bit like parents trying to be cool in the eyes of their children, so too does Messiah try to be relevant and up-to-date, but it makes him strenuous and far from cool. And that's what's funny. His character, stuck somewhere in the 1980s, plus quite a bit of infantry and environmental awareness, leads the plot to situations that only he can get into, and the feeling is that somehow it makes sense.

The crumbly choice, with an older and tired staff, and dishes that don't pretend to be food that someone really wants to eat, creates the perfect environment in which to grow such a comedy. The sub-characters also get their minutes and allow other cast members to show off their talent, and there are quite a few - Abby Kushnir as Armond, for example. To some extent, there is a resemblance between "Messiah" and "register register" here. Both have a working environment where few work, and each brings its own unique and unique, which gives rise to funny situations.

"Messiah" continues to be funny and relevant even in the second season. There are not many good Israeli comedies that last - "Messiah" can take pride in being exceptional.
