Sky Rojo

Good show. And sends a great message about hookers and strippers. Hats off to the real strippers. Good action and screenplay. One time watch series. Lets see what gonna be new in season 2. And theres lot of sex scenes so dont watch it with family.

Very high productionquality, acting and story... some scenes might seem a little dragged out, but these women are so much fun to watch. empowering strippers :D

Amazing music, anyone agrees? Loved the music at the end of each episode, brilliant choices.

Alejandro Amenabar pulled me into Spanish cinema with his amazing storytelling and writing, which his equally awesome senior Pedro Almodovar couldn't do for me due to genre choice. So, the premise of a Spanish show about kick-ass whores being hunted by incredibly handsome pimps, wrapped in a sexy (more like porn, actually) atmosphere, really excites me.

And to my delight, the first season delivers! There are a few loose knittings that could be tighten, like how fast the guy recovers and how on Earth a skinny anxiety ridden junkie could run without stopping for what seems like 8 hours or so. Still, all around performance is good, writing is good (lots of heart and thought provoking messages are not shoved down our throat,) storytelling is good, those earn this show a 7 for me, with the beautiful faces all over the show (it's a bit hard to find ugly faces here) and the porn visual wrapping push it even further to a solid 8! I couldn't wait to watch the second season!

And here's where everything goes downhill. I hate story stretching. I hate template tracing. I know it's an industry, but it's not manufacturing industry, it's art industry, so creativity is an obligation here, not template.

Sadly, that's what they're going for. The three guys should have easily been corpses by the first episode and the girls move on to new story arcs and new exciting adventure. I mean, literally, the chances are solidly set up by the end of the first season. But instead, they use the successful template and make the second season an exact copy of the first. One girl is badly wounded, one is still an idiotic junkie, and they are hunted by the same three guys.

So, yeah, thank you for the excellent first season, but no, thanks.

I watched all 3 seasons of Sky Rojo (24 episodes at a half-hour each give or take a minute) in a week, which is quick for me. The story of 3 prostitutes in a Tenerife brothel who go on the run after stealing their pimp boss's money zips by, each episode ending on a mini-cliffhanger which makes it almost impossible not to want to immediately watch the next one. Veronica Sanchez, Lali Esposito and Yany Prado are crazy good as the 3 hookers on the lam, and Asier Etxeandia plays the wonderfully irredeemable brothel boss Romeo. A word of warning - some scenes are particularly violent, gory even, so watcher beware. That said, a definite a thrill-a-minute watch.
