Postgraduate Students

Three close friends try to keep their lives from unraveling in this sharp comedy about love, work and the messy business of adulthood. The show follows their day to day routines, romantic missteps and family tensions, using short, often awkward scenes to highlight how small choices add up. Most episodes set a problem in motion through misunderstandings or competing priorities, then let the group dynamic and assorted relatives amplify the situation. The tone stays light, leaning on situational humor and character banter rather than plot theatrics, so you get a steady string of relatable, often silly moments instead of a single, sweeping storyline.

Originally released in 2016, the series was directed by Soroush Sehhat and created by Iman Safaei. The ensemble includes Amirhossein Rostami, Hootan Shakiba, Amir Kazemi, Matin Sotoudeh and Bijan Banafshekhah, who share most of the comedic duties across episodes.

There are no widely reported major awards or nominations connected to the show. It did not appear on major international awards lists, and public records do not indicate notable prize wins.

The series built a modest following among viewers who appreciate everyday comedy about marriage and friendship. It didn’t become a global phenomenon, but fans often point to a few recurring gags and the leads chemistry as reasons they kept watching. Its impact stayed fairly local, with discussion mostly among smaller online communities and word of mouth.

Critical and audience responses were mixed, reflected in a small sample vote average of 5.5 out of 10. Reviewers tended to praise the cast chemistry and situational setups, while noting the show relies on familiar sitcom beats and uneven episode quality. Key themes are the strain of balancing relationships with work and family, and how long friendships cope with changing adult priorities, all presented with a mostly light, comedic touch.
