Envieuse

It's fun and you get a few laughs out of it, but don't expect to root for the insufferable protagonist or most of the characters. Most people here are horrible. Cheating, lying, meddling, breaking people's heart is just very normal and natural to almost everyone.

I have to say, though, that that is not the reason for me not to give a higher score. Those are the characters personalities and that is not what dictates if a show is good or not. I just think the show is okay, but there is still a lot of room to grow, especially considering recent Argentine shows such as Viudas Negras and Division Palermo.

I am also one of those who completed watching this two-season series in just two days. No surprise! The story and characters are fantastic. I thoroughly enjoyed what I watched and laughed at many scenes. Although the character Vicky even managed to make me mad at times, I appreciate the way her journey is portrayed.

This is not just a comedy; it also makes you question yourself and your relationships. The series creates perfect moments where you start to feel like part of the story. All the performances in the series are excellent. The script and directing techniques are absolutely successful.

This isn't meant to be a critique, but the series does use some similar patterns to Sex and the City and The Golden Girls. While there aren't direct similarities, there are slight inspirations. However, one critique I have is the lack of diversity. In the series, you don't see any Black people; it's almost entirely a white-centric depiction, except for a few Chinese characters.

Buenos Aires is famous for its rich ethnography, but this was reflected in the TV series far less than I expected.

The author of this comedy series must have watched lots of romantic comedies, especially Sex and The City, Bridget Jones Diary,and many others because there is a bit of each one in it. Which is not bad at all, considering they are all good movies but...the stereotype this is based on is totally out of date, the main character is a selfish brat with no personality at all except for the anxiety of getting married, we know nothing about her, I mean who quits a career for a man these days? Are we nuts? The actresses however are phenomenal, Griselda Siciliani can do anything, best actress of her generation together with the rest of the cast even Esteban Lamothe who plays same role every time. Conclusion...Not worth watching, it is not even funny.

Maybe it is just the incredible talent of the writers and the female lead to give life and shape to such a horrible, self-absorbed, selfish, insensitive, revolting person. The show is otherwise great, the cast is brilliant, wonderful production values, the writing is solid, Esteban Lamothe's character is dreamy etc. However, into episode 8 I just cannot stomach the female protagonist anymore. There is also something old-fashioned and disturbing about a 40-something middle-class woman in Buenos Aires desperate to get married. I cannot watch the show any longer. I can't stand Vicky, her tantrums, her first-world emotional problems (she may live in Argentina but she's an insufferable emotional Karen). Hasta aquí llego.

I started watching the series without many expectations, but halfway through the first episode, I was hooked, and it seemed brilliant. Griselda is an impressive actress, and she shines the most in the comedic scenes. The rest of the cast is flawless, and the characters are very well-written. The writing is also worth highlighting-it's one of those series where you can easily recognize different friends or family members in the characters you see on screen. The attention to detail in the storytelling and the balance between humor and drama make it a truly enjoyable experience. Each episode keeps you wanting more, and it's hard not to binge-watch the entire series.
