Szomszédok (Neighbours) was a Hungarian TV series, that ran from 1987 – 1999 and produced 331 episodes, airing its finale on December 30th, 1999.
The show was a soap opera, dealing with the lives of ordinary people, living and working in or around an average lakótelep (communal grouping of twelve storey block buildings). Its characters were explored, over time, in equal depth: ranging from elderly pensioners, busy middle aged professionals, up-and-coming young people, and children growing into their teens.
Many consider Szomszédok to be The Hungarian TV series, being a period piece of sorts that covers the last few years of the communist era, the rendszerváltás (democratic transition), and nearly a decade of the new market economy Hungary thereafter.
