As per Hollywood Reporter, Netflix had the series as part of its library from 2017 to 2021. Now it is back again. However, this show is made available for Netflix US subscribers. It has three seasons. It is created by Zelenskyy and also starred him. One of the screenwriters on this show is his wife Olena Zelenska.
In a classic case of fiction prefacing reality, Zelensky plays the lead character, Vasyl Petrovych Holoborodko, an absent-minded high school history teacher who is elected President of Ukraine after his profane rant about corruption in the country is recorded by one of his students, who uploads the footage to YouTube and turns him into an Internet sensation.
Holoborodko's students launch a crowdfunding campaign for his candidacy in Ukraine's presidential race against his wishes, eventually propelling him to political victory.
