Estoy vivo

It's hard to stop watching. Always saying, just one more episode.

The special thing about this series is that I have fallen in love with the characters. The humor, the comments... I love it!

The 1st season, without being original, had its charms. From there on, it just went more and more idiotic. Poorly written and cliché ridden, stilted dialogues, bad acting and incompetently shot and edited action scenes. The whole thing is so disjointed that it's painful to watch.

This is more a review of the first season than the second. First, a bit of background: a cop Andrés Vargas is killed by a sadistic serial killer and we see him go to the Passage, the transition to the afterlife. While processing Vargas, oops, it seems a little mistake was made. He actually shouldn't have died. When he demands to return to his life on Earth, to his wife, two daughters, and his elderly father, the Passage informs him that is impossible because time on Earth moves much more quickly. Five years have already passed since his (non-)death, and Andrés Vargas is long dead & buried. The best they can do is to return him to Earth in another body, Manuel Márquez

As it so turns out, his new body looks nothing like his old self, but Vargas does get to return to his old job in his old precinct. The catch is that his new assigned partner is his daughter, who has grown up & become a cop during his absence. The other catch is that if he tells anyone his true identity, he really will die, for good this time. He figures that being near his family, even if he must hide his true identity, is better than nothing at all.

With his daughter as his partner and a rather odd companion from the Passage named Iago, Márquez chases down the serial killer responsible for his death and the murders of a number of young women. Estoy vivo is hardly your typical cop show, however. It's also a supernatural thriller, with elements of family drama, romance, and goofball humor all thrown into the mix.

Honestly, I watched every episode of the first season at least three times. I must have watched the Season 1 finale a half-dozen times. From one minute to the next, I am doubled over laughing, then terrified, then on the brink of tears. Believe it or not, the show manages to navigate through the comedy, drama, suspense, and police action as if such nuttiness were totally normal.

The second season wasn't nearly as good. While still a great series, a single viewing of every episode sufficed. That said, I am literally counting the days until the Season 3 premiere.

OMG!!! I had never seen something like this, I got addicted. I just wanted to know what's going to happen next. The romance part, incredible, beautiful way to love each other. I got to love each character. The author picked the best of the best cast. I'm amazed with the things that happened. I got all kind of emotions, I enjoyed the funny, the action mixed with funny, I cried, the suspense. ABSOLUTELY The Best Story I ever watched. I recommend it to watch it, once you get into it, you don't want to stop. Congratulations to the producer and to each cast including Papuchi (the dog). The happy ending was so beautiful. I loved it!

Can't believe the rating people's giving to this horrific show. So poorly written, terrible acting and fool story. I rather stick some needles in my eyes before watching this. Like most spaniel productions it always turns into a cheese soap opera. By the way, congrats to the "music composer" (nobody noticed the Stranger Things' track used).
