When i live in Peru this was the most funny thing on TV, with 4 excelents seasons and 4 good seasons this was my favorite comedy / novela, trully recomended.

The show has transformed a lot from its first airing which was about the working class and indigenous Gonzales family moving into a 'pituco' (upper class) neighbourhood and annoying their 'pituco' neighbours - the Maldinis.

Of course, the programme has now been going for nearly 15 years so the Gonzales's and the Maldini's have sorted a lot of their issues out but what AFHS (as it is known by its abbreviation) is, is a cultural, social and media institution in Peru, shown more or less daily in Peru and with a large following, the future stars of Peruvian television and film usually cut their teeth here and some of them come back and star in the show after they have made it. It has survived ten series until now, here is to another ten more!

I'm Peruvian and this series has all the modism and slangs well rooted in Peruvian culture, the characters are charismatic and have a distinctive theme song, currently they have expanded from being only in "Las Lomas", Peru to being able to reach Punta Sal and even to Paris, France, the return of the 2022 series provides a lot of fun and new plots, recommended.

Series that has a format already used for many years, characters, situations, even jokes, repeated, lacks originality and becomes very boring to watch.

I am trying to see with the eyes of a person who enjoys a whole variety of series both American and Latin American. This series has its charm, as it is refreshing to see something new and not the cliche of most soap operas. This show has no problem at showing you the good the bad and the ugly of both the rich family and the poor family, and the concept of both class and cultural translocation. I have so far enjoy the first 39 episodes of this program and I usually make up my mind on the first and/or second episodes. If you are a person who enjoys a combination of drama, comedy, and reality, this is the show for you..You will see also multiple instances of "Picardia Peruana". I also have to highlight the multiple Peruvianisms within the conversations of characters. For someone who may not have grown there will have a hard time understanding such Colloquial Spanish. So grab the closest Peruvian friend and ask them for the meaning of words such as QUAKER= ESPESO= annoying or CHELA= cerveza because otherwise you will be misunderstanding this program altogether.
