Synopsis

The sitcom revolves around Tomáš Pacovský, owner of a music store named U Dvou Akordů (At the Two Chords), and his family. His brother Ozzák (the name "Ozzák" is an allusion to an Ozzy Osbourne fan) is a chronic alcoholic who loves heavy metal music. The majority of jokes and gags are about his alcoholism and his absolute belief in metal music. Ozzák professes this opinion: Music which isn't related (more or less) to metal is trash, and not worth selling, but metal is the real deal, and so it should be given away for free. Tomáš has a teenage daughter Iva who is (seemingly) the only normal member of the family, although she has her funny moments as well.

Other characters include members of the Bůček family: Simona, a slightly odd, middle-aged woman with a very hooked nose, who works in a pub named U Jezevce (At the Badger's) in the first season, where Ozzák spends most of his free time and money. She has two children. They are neighbours of the Pacovský family. Lexa is an unintelligent boy who is in love (albeit platonically) with Iva. Lexa also admires Ozzák and does everything Ozzák says. Saša is a very quiet girl who sometimes thinks of herself as invisible. One of her personality quirks, for example, is that whenever she tries to lie, she faints. The Buček family are very poor and Simone often takes drastic measures to keep them in the black. [4]

The last main character is Marcela. Her husband is Zoran Divić, a gangster from Croatia, and a big fan of HNK Hajduk Split soccer team and Tomi Paci. She helps in Tomáš' store as a volunteer, because music is her hobby. Marcela disapproves of Ozzák's long hair and his love of heavy metal music and sometimes she refuses to work with him. It may seem that she doesn't like Ozzák, but she actually develops a kind of relationship with him.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Football hooliganism</span> Violent behaviour by football spectators

Football hooliganism, also known as soccer hooliganism, football rioting or soccer rioting constitutes violence and other destructive behaviors perpetrated by spectators at association football events. Football hooliganism typically involves conflict between pseudo-tribes, formed to intimidate and attack supporters of other teams. Certain clubs have long-standing rivalries with other clubs and hooliganism associated with matches between them can be more severe. Conflict may arise at any point, before, during or after matches and occasionally outside of game situations. Participants often select locations away from stadiums to avoid arrest by the police, but conflict can also erupt spontaneously inside the stadium or in the surrounding streets. In extreme cases, hooligans, police, and bystanders have been killed, and riot police have intervened. Hooligan-led violence has been called "aggro" and "bovver".
