Manual do Presidiário

I thought it was funny. Really got into the characters.

I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed this series! I'm watching it for a second time. I fell in love with each character even the guards. Their stories captivate you and help you see them in a different light than at first. I highly recommend it!

If you had told me five days ago that I would be this enthralled about a series revolving around a Korean professional baseball player on the brink of being signed by an American Major League team being sent to prison for assaulting a sexual predator, I would not have believed it. Yes, I am a Korean drama fan and knew this series was well received in Korea but had dragged my heels on watching it. Who knew that this series would be chockful of so many funny, heartbreaking, happy, sad and truly heart-tugging moments? Each of the main characters has a rich personality and you quickly find yourself emotionally wrapped up in their stories. Each episode is about an 1.5 hours long with 16 episodes so there was plenty of time to flesh out the stories and characters, whether the prisoners or their guards. Of course, we know it is far from what goes on in a real prison but the humanity and character depicted in this show leaves us with hope that we will look beyond the prison jumpsuit or the guard uniform to find the human inside. Watch it, you won't be disappointed!

A series that reveals why the best of KDrama is loved worldwide. The writing, direction, and acting are a joy in a clever, intelligent, compassionate, and often hilarious prison story that surprises at every turn. Strongly recommended.

I'm reviewing this cause there is only one review and this show needs more credit!

The best about the series is it's comedy, it's like watching an anime of madhouse like One Punch Man. At first I didn't think of the series that much, but you hooked pretty quickly and there no dull moments.

This is the one show you can put on after a hard day of work when you don't want to stress yourself that you've got to keep absolute attention in case you miss a line.

It's has a good story, some romance and enough laughter to get you through easily.
