Envidiosa

I am also one of those who completed watching this two-season series in just two days. No surprise! The story and characters are fantastic. I thoroughly enjoyed what I watched and laughed at many scenes. Although the character Vicky even managed to make me mad at times, I appreciate the way her journey is portrayed.

This is not just a comedy; it also makes you question yourself and your relationships. The series creates perfect moments where you start to feel like part of the story. All the performances in the series are excellent. The script and directing techniques are absolutely successful.

This isn't meant to be a critique, but the series does use some similar patterns to Sex and the City and The Golden Girls. While there aren't direct similarities, there are slight inspirations. However, one critique I have is the lack of diversity. In the series, you don't see any Black people; it's almost entirely a white-centric depiction, except for a few Chinese characters.

Buenos Aires is famous for its rich ethnography, but this was reflected in the TV series far less than I expected.

Maybe it is just the incredible talent of the writers and the female lead to give life and shape to such a horrible, self-absorbed, selfish, insensitive, revolting person. The show is otherwise great, the cast is brilliant, wonderful production values, the writing is solid, Esteban Lamothe's character is dreamy etc. However, into episode 8 I just cannot stomach the female protagonist anymore. There is also something old-fashioned and disturbing about a 40-something middle-class woman in Buenos Aires desperate to get married. I cannot watch the show any longer. I can't stand Vicky, her tantrums, her first-world emotional problems (she may live in Argentina but she's an insufferable emotional Karen). Hasta aquí llego.

This series seems to show someone so self obsessed that you wonder if she will ever find love - and after splitting with a boyfriend after 10 years together and not getting the wedding ring she wanted, she kind of goes off the deep end.

But as the series goes on you get explanations about why she's the way she is and more than just the "top layer" of the person - and you can feel for the character (and her friends and family) more.

It's also not as predictable as you might think initially with other characters showing it's not just about her. The lead actress is great - showing inner softness under the slightly crazed shell - and she has a good supporting cast too.

This does seem be a "going concern" though - as it looks like it'll take more episodes to wrap things up in a bow (if that - or the second series - happens).

I'll be watching them if that happens.

I loved every episode-it kept me hooked from start to finish! The story was incredibly relatable, especially through the character of Vicky. I felt her pain, hope, happiness, dreams, confusion, and love drama deeply. Her journey resonates with so many women today who struggle to find a supportive partner while balancing their dreams of building a family and pursuing a career. I experienced every emotion as if it were my own.

I absolutely loved it and wish there were more series like this-realistic and emotionally grounded-rather than the overly dreamy ones we usually see. This series truly reflected real-life experiences, making it all the more impactful.

I've never watched the Argentinian series... and I can say that I'm blown away.

I'm also not a big fan of comedies, but this one was perfect for me.

In the begginig she was so annoying, and that was point of the show, but from every episode she was more and more likeable. I had a really good laugh.

And really good thing is that I rethink about myself, and concluded that I and all women have it in us, a touch of envy. Sometimes we don't have a good day and everyone's life seems better than ours. But reality always surfaces, as it was shown in this show.

I am from Europe and I can say sadly that women here are still consider "failure" if they are 40 and without husband and kids, and that is sad.

I especially liked the character of the psychologist, if I go to therapy I would like her to be just like her!

10/10 from me and I am really suprised.
