Bitter Daisies

What a twist. This is a top quality show. I was happy to follow in English sub titles. What made it even more special is that I have spent several weeks in this amazing part of Spain

Recently I am watching Spanish and British serials rather than American series and BitterDaisies is a good choice for this decision. Story, atmosphere,actings are suberb. The main character Maria Mena as Rosa is amazing. Looking forward season 2!!!!!!!

This is a very compelling murder mystery with a strong female lead. Keeps you guessing until the very end just who are the good guys and who are the bad. Plenty of twists and surprises along the way. Surprisingly, it's an emotional journey as well, with terrific acting.

This is definitely the opposite of slick. The directing and acting have a somewhat home-baked feel, and conversations often show the stilted character of afternoon soaps. It's not fast-moving, and when they try some action toward the end, the staging gets downright silly, like they should have practiced a few more times.

But the story is strangely compelling, with a nice onion of a mystery that gets unpeeled until everybody is a suspect. The whole thing at times reminds you a bit of a Spanish "Twin Peaks", with about the same level of realism, although no owls. And you really don't know what exactly is going on until the last episode.

It's compact at six episodes of a little over an hour, and the storyline does not invite a second season. Worthwhile checking out.

Fantastic Galician thriller with great script and acting. Fresh air series in a world of clichè American stereotypes.
