Medusa

This is a half-baked soap opera with not enough room to fully develop the story and characters, a predictable conclusion and some questionable script choices (e.g. No single redeeming character; maybe because the authors wanted to portray Colombia's elite as selfish and arrogant on purpose?).

Anyways, we really enjoyed the Costeño accent of the series' characters, which is heavy on profanity and regional slang and suits really funny to the cast of mostly white people that generally look very different from true Costeños (most of the actors are Bogotanos or Paisas).

This is yet another example as to why you MUST watch all series on the original language!

My wife is from Cartagena and we enjoyed the series as a challenge of trying to decipher which character had a "true" Costeño accent and who was just forcing it.

Nice filmography, beautiful Colombian Caribbean music , accents were funny because the actors were not originally from the Caribbean part but if you're not Colombian I don't think you noticed , just maybe that the accent it's a little bit different to the "paisa" from narcos and other Colombian series , but still good acting. In my opinion was a little too much eroticism, the plot was good because incriminated the whole family and it was not predictable but the sexy scenes were a little bit too much to follow , finally it was nice to see a bunch of actors from my childhood came back to the screens .I can't wait to watch the next season.

I was looking forward to watching this show because so many of my favorite actors from La Reina Del Flow were in it especially Carlos Torres who I think is one of the best actors of our generation. After the first episode, I thought maybe it will get better on the second one. Another episode with terrible writing and multiple sex scenes to distract from the disaster of a show from beginning to end, just terrible writers and lack of creativity really made this series unbearable to watch. I managed to get to the fourth episode and by then could no longer justify the waste of my precious time on such a poorly made series. Shame because some of the cast happen to be brilliant actors and this disaster did nothing to showcase their talent.

This is simply a story designed to include as many sex scenes as possible of infinite variety. Barbara has just been named CEO of Medusa - a huge company run by her father Damian. We then go on an endless introduction of who everyone in the family is and their position in the company. That should have been spread out to allow the viewer time to assimilate the information. Barbara decides to go for a boat ride alone so as she can lie on the boat and well - make herself happy. BOOM - boat blows up and Barbara is in the water being attacked by two guys - no explanation how they appeared out of the blue. They cut off her finger - that is the end of that - it never tells you why. Back home policeman Danger is put on the case but soon taken off it as somebody doesn't want it solved.

Needless to say he and Barbara soon become lovers. Her husband Esteban told him to watch her - they have been in an open marriage for years so he should have known better. Her brother Cristian is now CEO. Pretty soon the gay element arrives and continues in the form of male and female participants. It seems Barbara was rescued by the leader of an Amazon tribe who cultivated a magic mushroom which Barbara uses throughout - Barbara was in love with her but has forgotten everything that happened before the accident. The story continues with her investigating her family and finding out all their secrets - sexual of course. This series would have stretched to two episodes if all the sex scenes were deleted. To add insult to injury the acting was pretty awful too. It takes all twelve episodes to unmask the killer when it was pretty obvious from the beginning whom it was.

Not recommended.

To be honest I started this series being excited, as I've never seen something like this particular plot, but as the plot was unfolding, I realised I was forcing myself to watch it. Although I love mystery, suspense and crime, the series became tiring to watch. The endless sex scenes were not adding to the show, the unlikable characters were making it hard to enjoy and the end was unnecessary confusing. I think that 1 season might be enough, and a closure should have been given. I even considered some scenes cringe as well. I would say that this series had potential, but ultimately left me disappointed.
