The Unit: Extreme Rendition (2006)
Episode 2, Season 2
They should have hired a cultural adviser.

The episode is so unrealistic, it's boring. The foreign actors do not speak Bulgarian, there are no Bulgarian actors at all, and the episode was shot in Santa Clarita, CA.
The foreign language that's spoken in the episode doesn't even resemble the Bulgarian speech pattern. In terms of cultural behavior, the characters act like Americans pretending to be Russians from the Cold War period. The director should have just placed the action in the country where the foreign actors were from or simply hire a couple of Bulgarians like most other movie makers do. The way they handled the cultural aspects is more suitable for a comedy like Borat than for The Unit.
