Like in the original TV series Otpisani, the subject of Potpisani is the underground partisan resistance in Belgrade during World War II.[3][4]

In addition, the targets of this parody are many famous Hollywood movies like Star Wars, The Matrix, Superman III, Home Alone, Charlie Chaplin's and Bruce Lee's films, and also many of famous Serbian movies and TV shows, such as The Marathon Family, Balkan Spy, Nacionalna klasa, Vratice se rode etc.

Podbradak potpisanih (Serbian Cyrillic: Подбрадак потписаних, English: The Double Chin of the Undersigned)[5] is a sequel of Potpisani which parodies the name of Povratak otpisanih, the sequel of Otpisani.[6][7]
