Envious

I started watching the series without many expectations, but halfway through the first episode, I was hooked, and it seemed brilliant. Griselda is an impressive actress, and she shines the most in the comedic scenes. The rest of the cast is flawless, and the characters are very well-written. The writing is also worth highlighting-it's one of those series where you can easily recognize different friends or family members in the characters you see on screen. The attention to detail in the storytelling and the balance between humor and drama make it a truly enjoyable experience. Each episode keeps you wanting more, and it's hard not to binge-watch the entire series.

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.

I am also one of those who completed watching this two-season series in just two days. No surprise! The story and characters are fantastic. I thoroughly enjoyed what I watched and laughed at many scenes. Although the character Vicky even managed to make me mad at times, I appreciate the way her journey is portrayed.

This is not just a comedy; it also makes you question yourself and your relationships. The series creates perfect moments where you start to feel like part of the story. All the performances in the series are excellent. The script and directing techniques are absolutely successful.

This isn't meant to be a critique, but the series does use some similar patterns to Sex and the City and The Golden Girls. While there aren't direct similarities, there are slight inspirations. However, one critique I have is the lack of diversity. In the series, you don't see any Black people; it's almost entirely a white-centric depiction, except for a few Chinese characters.

Buenos Aires is famous for its rich ethnography, but this was reflected in the TV series far less than I expected.

If you are a fan of romantic comedies this show is definitely for you. Like old classics such as "The Awful Truth", "When Harry Met Sally" or new classics like "To All the Boys I Loved Before", it's filled with amazing comic timing, romance and great chemistry. It's got plenty of twists and surprises that are refreshing and somehow keep u guessing. You think you what happens next, but then the writer will one up you and you'll laugh hysterically. Somehow it makes it more believable bc life is more unpredictable than most Netflix shows. What really sets this show apart is how heartfelt it is. I cried just about as much as I laughed. You fall in love w the main character along with her costar. There was this one amazing scene that I watched 5 times. I've never done that before but as a fan of film and television, I was astounded by the impeccable portrayals and the writing. Nothing was in excess. Nothing was lacking. It was the perfect declaration. The one Jane Austen wld pen today if she was a modern author. Pls watch this and fall in love with romantic comedies again.

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!
