Tiempos de guerra

Loved this show. Hope there is a season 2 :) I really enjoyed the acting, the story lines, the history, costumes and locations.

Javierruiberriz,you should study more history and vaccinate yourself against patriotism: Ceuta and Melilla did exist before the Portuguese and Spanish intromission and expansionism, under the pretext of protecting themselves. Ceuta from Phoenician establishments, through the Romans, the Byzantines and various Germanians until the Arab invasion and intermittences between the kingdom of Castile and North African dynasties. It was not until 1415 that his story is as we know it. Melilla also has Phoenician ancestry; First it was called Punic Rusadir and its current name could come from Tamazight "Tamlilt". Abderramán III created the Taifa de Melilla in 927, which was integrated into the Caliphate of Córdoba and maintained close relations with the Muslim Hispania of al-Andalus. In 1497 everything changed and its future became linked to Spain via the Medina-Sidonia. Ceuta and Melilla have never ever belonged to Morocco, javierruiberriz? Are and always be Spanish? Do you still believe that? Spain was a nation when the hosts of Tarik arrived in Spanish territory in 711? Did they already exist in 711 Sevilla and Madrid? All of Morocco was only tribes for the time? I think you should know and heal yourself of your ignorance or maledicted nationalism. Idrisíes, Meriníes and Hafsíes were not simple tribes, but empires with their domains to both sides of the Straits. Ceuta and Melilla have their North African past, it's just a fact that you have nationalist sentiments.And about the series ... it's as manic as it is flimsy.

Hi there. We're currently on the 4th episode of the 1st season and so far so good. It reminds me of a good, old fashion soap opera. The sets are quite elaborate and we're enjoying the outdoor location scenes a lot. I usually change the channel when I see a show with subtitles but decided to tough it out for the sake of my mother who is truly enjoying the show, As per my question, I was wondering what year it was shot and more importantly, is there going to be a 2nd season? If so, can you tell me when it starts? Thanks in advance, Lori

This was a really great series. I didn't mind the voice dubbing although I do think that the original actor's voices should bbn have been used. If you think it is dull at first give it a chance then you will be hooked. I an hoping for a season 2.

Pro's: The characters are appealing. The story line is interesting. For the most part, the acting is pretty good. This isn't a deep, serious watch- even considering the subject matter. This was a historical situation I wasn't aware of, so I always appreciate cinema that spurs me on to learn more about what was going on. Con's: I would say the "getting together-breaking apart" aspect of the love story between Julia and Fidel got to comic proportions by the end.In fact, that seemed to be a common theme with ALL the romantic plot lines in the series and it was getting tiresome. That said, I hope there is a season 2. :)
