Psi

This is a good series from Brazil but some of the episodes are really poorly written. The editing is choppy and continuity of the story line is lacking. Sometimes, there is no resolution to the episode, which leaves the viewer frustrated. The dialog in a few of the episodes has too much "psychobabble" which is often irrelevant to the story and does nothing for character development. Although the acting is done at a good level, the seasons have a tendency to run out of steam and thus fails to hold attention or viewer engagement. The first 2 seasons were the best. In later seasons, the plots become more fantasy than reality, and the scripts become very childish. Overall, it is a good effort and fairly watchable if you are looking for something different.

Based on just first episode, this is a great show. Wanted to clarify/updated for everyone that it's not dubbed into Spanish. It's in Portuguese with English or Spanish subtitles. I didn't use the English subtitles much since I speak Portuguese, but I thought the translation was very poor from what I saw.

Psi is a Brazilian show that is dubbed in Spanish with English subtitles just to set the record straight. It follows the story of a Psychologist in Sao Paolo, Brazil. It is fascinating watching the Doctor Carlo who is kind and empathetic but also a little reckless. The characters are complex and story frequently is unpredictable which makes the show so compelling. Superb acting by Emilio de Mello. I was surprised by how fascinated I was with this show. It is thought provoking. A realistic look at the often bizarre world of psychology and psychiatry. Highly recommend.

Why are there no English subtitles available after the first episode? Had to stop watching this series after only one episode. Too bad because it seemed interesting.

In 2017 when on-demand programming allows shows to be formatted with multiple audio formats, why is it that all of HBO's brazilian content is only available dubbed in spanish? I wish I could watch it in original portuguese, but as is all I can rate is the horrible dubbed version.
