Who could have guessed that a "pop" would pop up everywhere?
Not bad for the drama that started under the radar.
How did "Rehearsals" manage to become the hot talk?
The series comes from a simple and small place.
She has no pretentiousness, nor pompousness, on the contrary, she is the most mundane there is, and that is what made her touch people.

How many women have often heard themselves say sentences like Iris (Noa Koller) out of her mouth?
How many men were in this undecided place where Tomer (Erez Driggs) is?
Looks like a lot.
How many women can make pearls like Vera (Evgenia Dudina)?
It seems not much.
The series, which dealt with the relationships of its participants for their complexity and problematic nature, brought as a counter to the glamorous stars from outside the real world that reveals the wounds, flaws and scratches of the characters.
The large shadow that fell on the "big stars" made the anti-stars brighter and more prominent (yes, Koller, I'm talking about you).
Another thing that happened in "Rehearsals" is the blurring of the hierarchy between the characters, which put almost all of them on the same level of importance and created an ongoing interest.
The scene in the last episode, where everyone is sitting and waiting for the show to start, is close to perfection.
The collection of characters who had to sit side by side - Iris with her date, her brothers and her mother sitting between her and Tomer - created a ping pong of comic responses, with one man in the middle who just wants to tell one woman, in his weird way ("compromise on me"), that he Wants to get back to her.
However, the final episode was too kitschy with an expected ending that could have been seen from miles away, and that kind of takes the series off the Passon, but hey, there will be a second season, so you can forgive.
"Rehearsals" became a cult hit during the broadcast, which happens except for very few series.
It can be said with certainty that Driggs, Koller and Assaf Amir - gave a show here.
