Locked Up

Every time i logged into Netflix, Vis a Vis appeared on the main page, but as soon as a read the story line I thought: "this must be the Spanish version of Orange is the New black". However, after watching Vis a Vis I can say that I was so wrong. I decided to give it a try and was the best decision I could made. Such an interesting story, great cast, with no doubt one of the best Spanish productions.

I have to say that the leading characters of both TV shows are alike and as you know both happens inside a prison but besides that there is nothing similar between them... which is a good thing a must say since I'm not exactly a fan of Orange is the new black. OITNB is more kind of a comedy with some drama while Vis a Vis is full of intrigue, lies, fights, deaths.

You should watch it.

The show is very good in seasons 1 and 2. Quality drops in the last two seasons except for the very last 2-3 episodes. Many events are not realistic and justification is missing for others. Monumental interpretation of Zulema by Najwa Nimri, you can tell she is simply an higher category of an actress.

I love this Show and haven't been able to get round to starting watching anything since as nothing will beat it ! I am waiting Series 3 !! Hurry up !! Its a great show - and if you are learning Spanish its good too. Great characters, good storyline - twists and turns to the story all the time.

Is Spanish, yes, and is awesome. Don't miss this show. You won't regret. The characters, specially in seasons 3 and 4, are outstanding.

This is by far the best female prison serie from this time. Wonderfull actors, great story. Must watch!
