Margosha (Seasons 1–3)

Margosha (2009) is a Russian fantasy-comedy series you can watch online on iFILM. Gosha, the hard-edged editor-in-chief of a glossy magazine, wakes up one morning to find he has turned into a woman. Directed by Sergey Arlanov and Andrey Silkin.

The transformation is revenge — a young woman named Karina turned to a witch after Gosha wronged her. Now living as Margo, he has to slip back into his own newsroom, track down Karina to break the curse, and learn how to be a woman on the fly. His best friend Anya walks him through heels, lipstick, and the social rules he never thought about. Eduard Trukhmenyov, Maria Berseneva, Elena Perova, and Vladimir Sterzhakov star.

The show plays its supernatural premise for comedy while poking at the glossy-magazine world and its rigid ideas about gender. A good fit for fans of Russian comedies with a light fantastical twist. Stream Margosha (2009) online on iFILM.
