Hache

A tasty cocktail poured over ice cool cubes of 1960s Barcelona night life. An intoxicating blend of gangster grit, sweet suspense, and a rich aftertaste of raw humanity. I'm not sure about the shaken, but it will leave you stirred. "Another season senor?" Don't mind if I do.

Excellent series I really liked, Adriana was fantastic in Helena's role, Janvier Rey was fantastic in Malpica's role.

But mostly boring in long stretches. Could have taken 4 one hour episodes to tell the story completely. Lots of filler.

From IMDB: "Inspired by real events, Hache is the story of Helena, a woman catapulted to the heroin trafficking business in the Barcelona of the 60s. Creator: Verónica Fernández. Stars: Adriana Ugarte, Eduardo Noriega, Marc Martínez."

Two seasons, 16 x 50 minute episodes. No doubt season 3 is upcoming.

Hache (Spanish for the letter "H" (Helena), starring the gorgeous Adriana Ugarte rises from humble beginnings to run a night club and Heroin manufacturing business. As so often happens, her closest 'associates' are her biggest enemies and she has to use all her wits to survive.

Amazing to see the Barcelona, fashion and cars from almost sixty years ago. In many ways Hache reminds me of 'Queen of the South', where another strong woman rises from the ashes and becomes a Narco boss in Mexico.

Lot's of smoking, drug use, and gang violence, so no kiddies to watch this. I give Hache and 8/10. Easy to binge watch.

I really didn't know what to expect from this Spanish series but I found it quite compelling. The theme, music, strong woman story and chemistry between actors, everything about the show was done rightly!

Not sure if we get a second season but I wish we'd have!
