El internado

I tend to like shows that are centered around unraveling a mystery with just a touch of creepiness woven in. This show seemed to hit the spot, though it ended up being much more of a convoluted drama than I had anticipated. Turns out it is addictive too. It is a bit ridiculous at times.. and a bit cheesy.. but highly entertaining. As a bonus I have picked up some bits of Spanish (I've never even taken a Spanish class).Nothing terribly useful though, but now I do know how to tell someone they are lying to me, call them a liar or say I don't believe them. (There is so much lying going on in this show that I actually learned multiple ways to express or deal with lying in Spanish).I keep thinking that if people just told the truth, it would shave off about 5 seasons worth of content. Of course, what is the fun in that? Despite the flaws, I am thoroughly enjoying this show at the moment.

Excellent, I just wish I could find it with English subtitles. My Spanish is limited and I'm sure I missed some of the subtleties.

That said it is still excellently written, acted and directed. With a plot that twists and turns.

Although based in a boarding school, the plot is suitable for adults.

A good drama, thriller, mystery and romance. Whoever you think is a goodie at the beginning is probably a baddie and vice versa. One of the episodes is entitled "everyone has secrets" something so true and the writers are not frightened to kill off characters. The final episode had me in tears.

The cool thing about this show is that it doesn't leave you waiting very long for something to happen. I think its very well written.

I don't know but something about it just made me want to send a package with Mailboxes Etc, drink sheep's milk, buy a Toshiba Computer and Rat Poison.

But seriously its fun to watch for me because i know some spanish but not enough to do without subtitles. I think they only say 'vale' in spain.

Once again another amazing show from Netflix international. I wanted to binge watch this show just like (Winter Sun - Kis Günesi (TV Series 2016). These two shows are unlike anything I have seen. Amazing Acting, Amazing storyline. The cast well what can I say but superb acting, especially the two busy body little girls. I wish this was a series that had at least 15 years worth of seasons. I can watch and watch this show. Now I have to see if I can buy this on a DVD set or not. I couldn't find Winter Sun available but I would love to have these as a purchase. They are worth the watch and for me to have. I can't talk about the show, you should watch it.I love that this show as well as Winter Sun does not let you know what is about to happen. I like being kept in suspense. Writer, Producer and Director, Amazing work and the Award goes to you all. I so love you in the series Raúl Fernández de Pablo, it so hurt my heart. muchísimas gracias!

A few years ago while I was living in Spain, I went to see the movie "Perdiendo El Norte" that starred Yon Gonzalez and Blanca Suarez. The girl I went with mentioned how the two actors were on a TV show she absolutely loved about a school where weird things happened. Ever since then, I had a desire to watch this show. I finally got Netflix over the summer and I started to watch El Internado to help maintain my Spanish.

This was not the show I had expected to watch, but wow, it blew me away. I thought it would be ghosts and monsters and things like that, but it was so much more. There are things that happen in the first episode of the first season that link to the final episode of the final season. It is an incredibly planned out show with such attention to detail. I mean, yes, sometimes I do find a few inconsistencies, but overall, just wow.

On top of that, Yon Gonzales and Matiño Rivas are such great eye candy. I also really increased my knowledge of Spanish slang.

It took me a while to get through because the episodes are over an hour long each, but when I had a long break from working, I just charged through the episodes, staying up until 4 AM watching because WOW. Just go watch. Even if you don't understand Spanish, go put on some English subtitles! It's a fun ride with some really unpredictable story lines.
