Los Billis

Viva el mallll parido indio... So, let's talk about "The Billies" - this series is like, totally awesome! Picture this: a group of teenagers, chilling at Unicento Mall, causing all sorts of truobles and mayhem. It's like stepping into a time machine and cruising back to the good ol' days of hanging out at the mall with your crew. IS 10 grado (tv series) but in real life.

First off, the cast is legit. Each actor brings their A-game, making their characters feel super real. You'll find yourself rooting for them, laughing at their antics, and maybe even shedding a tear or two during the emotional moments.

And can we talk about the vibes? "The Billies" nails that perfect mix of drama, comedy, and suspense. Every episode is a rollercoaster ride of pranks, adventures, and friendship struggles. It's like binge-watching your favorite teen movie, but even better 'cause it's a whole series!

Oh, and let's not forget about Unicento Mall itself - it's practically a character in its own right. The endless hallways, secret hideouts, and iconic hangout spots give the show a cool backdrop that adds to the vibe.

Bottom line: if you're looking for a fun, nostalgic trip down memory lane to the mid eigthys 80, "The Billies" is where it's at. So grab some snacks, kick back, and get ready for a wild ride with this rad teenage gang. Trust me, you won't wanna miss it!

Personally, I don't know the history in which the show was inspired by but this makes me want to know more

Loved the cast, the story, the OOTDs, the backdrop, the music, and the dancing...I actually was surprised to see "cool" guys in movies dancing around the way they do...completely opposite to the "cool" guys in modern based movies or in real life nowadays really.

Learned and started watching this for Francisca Estevez but end up finishing it for it.

Every start of the episode does show a warning for its contents soyou'll have idea for what your signing up for. Contents include drugs, alcohol, violence, etc.; with all that, I have to say, those doesn't really overshadow everything.

There is something going on with Colombian TV: if is not lame series where people pretend that by acting idiotic they are supposed to be funny, is something related with drugs, gangs, prostitution, opportunism and something that praises violence, ignorance and stepping over others.

When confronted about the situation, the producers response is that this is what people like to watch and that content connects to people, because if there is nothing else to watch and there are no options is because people choose to watch it, and that is how they connect to people because everybody in Colombia is related to drugs, violence, gangs and prostitution; this is the same people that complain when this is how Colombian people are portrayed in foreign series, because is only bad if other people do it.

This basically translates to 'poor us, nobody has come to tell us what to do or made something else we can copy, and by making a series about violence once again we are being oh so intellectual and deep'.

So, yeah, yet another oh so deep series about gangs, violence, drugs and prostitution because there is nothing else to do.
