Paquita Salas

This is a quick witted comedy full of unexpected heart. Mockumentary style ostensibly sends up the absurd (has been?) talent agent Paquita Salas, but we end up loving her instead because of her consistently humane reactions in the face of failures. She is also good at her job despite being somewhat over-the-top, and this makes her endearing. This is a workplace sitcom - parallels to Ricky Gervais and the Office are somewhat hard to avoid - and like the office gives us a window into the somewhat mediocre world of b/c list talent representation. But Paquita Salas used to be a-list - could she again?

All of the characters are so well developed. The humor is ridiculous yet so right on.

Paquita is queen and all the cast as well, I love los Javis.

As irreverent as a guy in drag may seem to you, this series is full of amazing randomness. It probably won't be understandable for non Hispanics because most of the jokes are about other Spanish actors but Paquita is lovely. It may have some R rated jokes, but you will finish the first season yearning for more.

Hilarious, but with a lot of heart. Reminded me a lot of The Office.

Spanish speaker though and I'm aware that there are lots of in jokes that only Spaniards will get. The second series is even better than the first.
