Otpisani (Serbian Cyrillic: Отписани, English: The Written Offs) is a Yugoslav drama TV series, produced by Radio Television Belgrade and first aired in 1974. The series follows the lives of young partisans during the Second World War in occupied Belgrade. It is based the book Zabranjeni život (English: Forbidden Life) by Dragan Marković.[1]

A film of the same title, which follows the plotline of the first two episodes, was also shot in 1974. Due to the series' popularity, a sequel titled Povratak otpisanih (English: The Return of the Written Offs) was released in 1978.[2][3]

Due to its popularity, Radio Television of Serbia has shown reruns of the series eleven times. The series has a cult status among its audience in ex-Yugoslav countries and has attracted an estimated 3 million viewers with its last rerun. A digital remaster of the series premiered on RTS on 29 August 2024, on the series' 50th anniversary.[4][5]
