Lady, La Vendedora de Rosas

Sad story telling what it was really like in Lady's world. When u tell it like it is some people get offended. Tough, thats life sugar!!

Most people don't know anything about Colombian series. If you're interested about knowing how's the life in the Colombian hoods, you need to watch this. It perfectly portrays how hard is it to survive there, and also makes you believe that you're watching something real. The cast is perfect, awesome actors (it gets better when the children grow up), and a very complete story. It makes you laugh, cry, you can also feel angry, or very sad because the music nailed it in that aspect. In every other aspect this show nailed it, even if the script isn't perfect, the way to tell the story is absolutely beautiful.

You should give it a chance, I sure you, you won't regret it.

The "7.9" is just wrong, this is a masterpiece.

I found this telenovela really enjoyable. It has a good story and relatable characters. The story's based on a true story about a girl named Lady Tabares who struggles to survive on the streets with her mom and brother. Helping her out are her friends who are also neighbors in the same apartment run by the boy's grumpy uncle. It's a sad show but there're also funny, heartfelt moments. The things the characters go through are rough yet believable and in some cases relatable. Michell Orozco as the young Lady does a good job playing the character. She has a charm and whenever she goes through something you sympathize with her. Bottomline, this's a really good show and I highly recommend it especially if you're learning spanish.

A very good telenovela, but sometimes it seemed like the stream of anti-gay, homophobic insults was never ending. It really wasn't necessary to advance the plot in any way. Some people might not be aware of the extent because the English subtitles frequently substitute a generic insult instead of the explicitly homophobic putdowns that the actors use in Spanish. Usually, I wouldn't comment on the anti-gay language. But it was truly excessive in this series. I would consider giving this series a nine or a ten, but sorry. The gratuitous, unnecessary homophobia is appalling. The story is otherwise well done.

Friday night, alone, tired of wanting to see something on Netflix and not liking anything then I said to myself, I'm going to watch the worse possible TV series so i can just turn it off early and go to sleep.

I found Lady and started watching it right away and I was ready to turn it off... but I couldn't and I didn't, instead, I kept watching, and watching, and watching....

3 hours later it was 7am in the morning and I finally finished watching Episode 3.

2 Weeks later, my whole family got hooked when I said to them... YOU GOTTA SEE THIS!... they started watching with a WTF face but I knew they were going to get hooked... and they did.

Wife and 2 kids and we all got into Episode 9.

Then came the friends and family from my brother... So i told them.. "we are going to watch an episode of a Colombian series on Netflix..." they replied to me "are you freaking kidding me".. oh but I knew what will happen.

We started on Episode 8... sooner than later, that same night we were onto Episode 11.

So, this Series passed the test as successful for my wife, my kids, my friends, my brother's family and more friends, not a single one of them said it was boring.

Why is it that is SO ADICTIVE?

Characters, they are freaking brilliant, the acting is also on par, it's freaking amazing, the little girl that play the role as little Lady is amazing, so full of life, Ms Michelle Orozco you're about the cutest and most brilliant girl i've ever seen on a series, Maria Jose Vargas doing as Lady's friend Yurani is also very cute and they are both incredible talented.

The rest of the cast is amazing, the acting is so well played, you get instantly hooked with them and their lives, plus the directing is top- notch. This is a deep story that works as a roller coaster. It doesn't matter if you don't speak Spanish, see with it subtitles. The series is far better than most junk Hollywood produces these days, it really stands out and I mean, BIG.

Kudos to all the team, If I ever travel to Colombia I would love to meet Ms Michelle Orozco in person, I'm a new fan of her work and my whole family loves her... I'm dying to see how Natalia Reyes plays her role as an older Lady !
