I might be wrong and missed something with auto-translation, so I´d like to ask you. If you happen to be from any of the countries that presumably broadcast the show, did it take place? Were there any TV listings, previews or such?

Then I've asked AI: it confirmed that Channel One Russia and Belarus 1 did cover the show. It didn't, though, find any proofs that channels VTV (Vietnam, the winner of the contest), Telekom Srbija, Cubavisión, Balageru TV (Ethiopia), CCTV or any other Chinese media had the show in their schedules

There's an official list of broadcasters, and even with it something just doesn't match. For instance, I've searched 国际视界 (a translation I've picked up from news articles) on CCTV's web pages - and found nothing

And just like that many have already compared “Too Much” to “Emily in Paris”. Well, it’s not about this fake race, both projects have their following and perks. Also, I see how Lena’s show is a truly romcom, not rom-dram (despite being so close to “Materialists”). THANK YOU. Let’s hope Emily follows

I love that it has girly pop-culture references to everything Austen and British romcoms and making a complex Easter egg in the scene above with a Bridget/Fleabag crossover (come on). And I get that people feel uneasy about getting raw. That “Girls” are somehow less cult than “Sex and the City”
