I wanted to like it. The pacing was great. The editing was good. But there are so many problems with the writing that it is difficult to take it seriously, even though I watched it all the way to the end, just out of sheer curiosity.
The characters were interesting and well developed in their shallowness, even though they needed more depth, which makes the bad writing a tragedy. It went for shock factor and twists, so it became bumpy and uneven, so their dialog was inconsistent with the action sometimes.
The bizarre subtitles not matching the overdub was downright laughable like an old Asian karate movie when things didn't match, ever.
I certainly don't need another season, though if done better, it could be good.

The second season has English as the original audio so the subtitles are only in Spanish. The English dubbing does not match the actors personalities and talent. Although I don't understand the show when watching it in Spanish at least I can enjoy the show. I prefer watching the show in Spanish instead of the obnoxious English dubbing. The relationship between The Envoys is absent with English dub, which is the heart of the show. I don't a season 3 if they're relying on American English speakers as the dubbing makes it unbearable to watch. I enjoyed the 1st season and I'm happy it is still available with the original Spanish audio track.
I like it so far,the storyline is entertaining, it keeps you connected to the série, the overall acting is good, the biggest problem is this Miguel Angel, he is just playing the handsome, like he is modelling for a cover magazine, super annoying, i would rate better if wasnt for him, even if he is gorgeous, Acting should be more than making sexy faces. The lighting and art direction are quite good quality aswell, and I like the fact they mix Italian and Spanish, makes it richer to watch. I need to finish still to have a better overall judgement . But so far is worth to watch It even if is not the best ever.
This does not sound very promising on paper: character-driven thriller about a pair of priests investigating alleged miracles in rural Mexico. But those two priests are multidimensional (the more religious one is trained as a medical doctor, the more skeptical one as a canon lawyer) and their interactions are snappy and mostly heartfelt. The rest of the cast is largely unremarkable but this 'dynamic duo' and a fairly tight plot, without frills or holes, manages to keep us interested. Said plot is nothing to write home about, but gives them time to shine and packs a few twists and turns. Unfortunately, once fully revealed it seems a little overstretched and the last two episodes are bogged down with Latino melodrama (lots of tears and handwringing, poorly acted dilemmas, perpetual dramatic music, etc.)
On the whole it is a decent piece of television, and a relatively nuanced (if not terribly accurate) depiction of Catholicism.
Brilliant series that needs a second season. Great acting and scenario. At the same time, there are many criticisms towards the actions of the religious elite. A must watch !!! One of the best series I have ever seen.
