La casa de las flores

Here I am surfing Netflix for my next binge when I stumble upon this gem. I never expected to get so involved in a series in a language I couldn't understand. I highly recommend watching the series in its original language with English subtitles. I tried both ways and I just couldn't deal with the English dub. I couldn't recommend this series more. It was phenomenal.

Season 1 is great - humor, plot, characters, Mexican peculiarities, but the second one is here just for your money. Don't waste your time and ignore it. 8 for the first one, 5 for the second

Desperate Housewives but with Chili con Carne. You must watch it if possible in Spanish.

Binged the third season in one sitting. Couldn't be happier that the final season fixes everything that was wrong with the second season. The flashback scenes made it feel like a completely different show but it didn't overstay its welcome. Everything ties up nicely in the end (and a surprise cameo at the very end). One weakness is that it's predictable (as most dramedies in this genre). You know how things are going to turn out but it's a small price to pay if you've seen how horrible the second season was. Long live the de la Mora family. I wish the show would last as long as Desperate Housewives but oh well, 3 seasons on Netflix ain't bad.

I started watching this serie without much expectation. I thought it was going to be another predictable and dramatic mexican telenovela, but I was very wrong.

This serie is quite original and funny. The cast is quite good and every episode is very different to the other, which keeps things interesting.

I can't stop watching it. I am really looking forward to another season!

Give it a try!
