Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Cultural

Creator Assi Azar is an Israeli TV host who brought Tel Aviv's rom-com sensibility to Dutch television, making this a rare Middle East-Europe creative crossover.

Trivia

The series title is a deliberate pun—'Bubbels' references champagne bubbles and Dutch slang for celebrity gossip, while 'Bagels' grounds Rick's working-class world.
