El vecino

Watched this series with out any expectations. This is one was fun runs limited time.

Season 2 was slow in screenplay lost its charm what was in season 1.

In a world full of gigantic fight against the end of the world (because all superheroes save the world) or terrible views of hideous superheroes that hide a villain under the mask. We finally find an everyday man, with an everyday life in an everyday neighbourhood. It entertains without cause anxiety and it the yoga of superheroic series

Saw the trailer and gave it a go, but was not expecting too much, because of the low budget production that becomes evident after seeing the trailer. It turns out that the show is very very good. I ended up watching the 5 first episodes in a row. The acting is very good (mainly from the main character), and the simplicity of the environment along with the writing is excellent. Very refreshing show within a story that is not new (a normal guy that ends up with powers), which makes even more relevant the great writing here. I genuinely laugh a lot, which is something very hard to find (at least for me) on most of the comedy shows from last years ( and some with high budgets).

The show had good performances all around from the leads to the supporting room mate roles. It feels like a show that would fit right in at in the vain of a Fox show such as Brooklyn Nine Nine or The Last Man on Earth. It is an easy watch at about 30 minutes per episode with nothing too serious and some decent special effects and decent acting. I'm not sure what these other people are expecting with their low reviews. I'm glad to see a non-American made show on Netflix with a focus on fun instead of a focus on superheroes (probably where some of the negative reviews come from). I enjoyed the season as did my wife and we hope to see a second season.

It's a refreshing twist on the superhero trope. It's very funny and well written, even translation (probably even funnier in Spanish) and well acted.
