Envious

I've never watched the Argentinian series... and I can say that I'm blown away.

I'm also not a big fan of comedies, but this one was perfect for me.

In the begginig she was so annoying, and that was point of the show, but from every episode she was more and more likeable. I had a really good laugh.

And really good thing is that I rethink about myself, and concluded that I and all women have it in us, a touch of envy. Sometimes we don't have a good day and everyone's life seems better than ours. But reality always surfaces, as it was shown in this show.

I am from Europe and I can say sadly that women here are still consider "failure" if they are 40 and without husband and kids, and that is sad.

I especially liked the character of the psychologist, if I go to therapy I would like her to be just like her!

10/10 from me and I am really suprised.

Maybe it is just the incredible talent of the writers and the female lead to give life and shape to such a horrible, self-absorbed, selfish, insensitive, revolting person. The show is otherwise great, the cast is brilliant, wonderful production values, the writing is solid, Esteban Lamothe's character is dreamy etc. However, into episode 8 I just cannot stomach the female protagonist anymore. There is also something old-fashioned and disturbing about a 40-something middle-class woman in Buenos Aires desperate to get married. I cannot watch the show any longer. I can't stand Vicky, her tantrums, her first-world emotional problems (she may live in Argentina but she's an insufferable emotional Karen). Hasta aquí llego.

The author of this comedy series must have watched lots of romantic comedies, especially Sex and The City, Bridget Jones Diary,and many others because there is a bit of each one in it. Which is not bad at all, considering they are all good movies but...the stereotype this is based on is totally out of date, the main character is a selfish brat with no personality at all except for the anxiety of getting married, we know nothing about her, I mean who quits a career for a man these days? Are we nuts? The actresses however are phenomenal, Griselda Siciliani can do anything, best actress of her generation together with the rest of the cast even Esteban Lamothe who plays same role every time. Conclusion...Not worth watching, it is not even funny.

This series seems to show someone so self obsessed that you wonder if she will ever find love - and after splitting with a boyfriend after 10 years together and not getting the wedding ring she wanted, she kind of goes off the deep end.

But as the series goes on you get explanations about why she's the way she is and more than just the "top layer" of the person - and you can feel for the character (and her friends and family) more.

It's also not as predictable as you might think initially with other characters showing it's not just about her. The lead actress is great - showing inner softness under the slightly crazed shell - and she has a good supporting cast too.

This does seem be a "going concern" though - as it looks like it'll take more episodes to wrap things up in a bow (if that - or the second series - happens).

I'll be watching them if that happens.

Argentinian cinema and series hit different.

This show is kind of a romantic comedy but in a much higher level. Don't expect those hollywoodian stereotypes and superficiality. Having just seen the last episode (of season one), I can say this is probably my favorite rom-com series ever. Which is remarkable because I usually don't like this gender.

But this show is just AMAZING. I'm gonna list all its qualities:

• great acting from everyone, especially the two main characters, from actors Griselda and Esteban;
• all characters (friends, family, coworkers) are likeable and relatable;
• great dialogs, with very little cliches to be honest. Everything feels very real;
• in the first two episodes you'll probably don't like the main character very much; but she will grow on you very quickly!

• cute production, good scenes from Buenos Aires;
• story is not all about "love". There are side stories about friendship, family, loss, self esteem, relationship with the therapist (which scenes are particularly enjoyable);
• relationships and feelings are showed deeply and there's no way you won't relate to some of them, being it one character or another.

I guess the thing that surprised me the most is that we're able to like the main character even with all her flaws. She's not perfect, as neither of us is. She's not a poor little girl looking for a man, she's a real woman whose situations in life are a result of her choices. And she has to deal with them.

I'm just dying to see season 2!
