La otra mirada

Excellent series with sumptuous scenery and costumes, fine acting, and story lines that keep the pace going. Some of it is far fetched, like how quickly they forgive each other or easily they overcome their prejudices, but we all want to watch how things 'could' be in human relationships, rather than how they really are typically where people hold grudges and intentionally hurt others. TV is meant to make you feel better about life, not worse, not remind you how horrible humans can be to each other, that's what the news is for. This show is emotionally entertaining and broaches subjects that are still relevant in the 21st century.

I enjoyed this series very much and love Spanish period pieces, however the ending was very disappointing. I would have loved to see another season to fix the storyline for most characters.

This is basically a soap opera infused with hamfisted and predictable feminist messages. There are some interesting characters and storylines, but very little to make you think or keep you guessing. In fact, in order to make certain you are thinking exactly what the director wants you to think, the melodramatic soundtrack gives very clear signals. The show has all the pieces present to make possible an amazing series, but is content to lead the viewer around by the nose and use tried and true clichés. At over one hour per episode, there was plenty of time to go deep. As with any foreign series, you do learn things about the country of origin.

Just finished watching season 1. Love the clothe, story line. Amazing cast. Loved how season 1 ended. Major twist on who killed Tersa's dad. Now I need to see what happens next. So upset that I can't find season 2 anywhere. Here on this app I can only find pictures of each episode of season 2.

This series appears to be made for a specific local audience. It has little to offer in the way of global interest. It is a period drama from Spin that deals with changing social mores in that country during the 1920s. Attached to this main premise is a loosely fabricated mystery. The acting is below average, with actors delivering their lines as though reading from cue cards or a teleprompter. The heavy industrial strength makeup for the actors makes them all look both garish and ghoulish. That has a most disturbing and most distracting visual impact. It is, as others have pointed out, a soap opera filled with feminist messages about strong women and overtones of communism. It is really not worth the effort to go much beyond episode 1!
