This series is plain awful. I actually saw two episodes of this crap. The only reason I didn't stop watching after a couple of minutes is because I was laughing so hard at the supposedly scary scenes.
The stories are so dumb and illogical. I mean, there's no common sense, non whatsoever. Nothing scares you, maybe just the lack of talent of the people involved in this. You can never get involved with the story, because you're constantly asking yourself questions like: "How can those guys believe they found an expensive necklace in that old creepy house? (The so-called necklace is made of cheap plastic and it shows!) Why those guys can walk for hours to get to a relatives' house without knowing where it really is and give up a few blocks (or so) away? Why are they SO dumb? Why do people that go on vacation NEVER leave their dusty hotel for sightseeing at all for days (and stay there just walking through the corridors)? etc., etc."
The camera movements and the attempt of lighting are ludicrous. Just one example (of too many): in one scene of an episode about a haunted hotel you can actually see for over a minute a clear reflection of the camera man doing a traveling!
The acting is appalling. Evangelina Sosa gives the worst performance of her career in the episode "Callejón " something. Seriously, she should apologize to her audience.
I truly believe any film student can produce (even on his or her first semester at school) a much better product than this mediocre and pathetic excuse for a show.

I only watched this episode. And it was incredible funny, I laughed from beginning to end.
This episode is supposed to be a behind the scenes special of the next Harry Potter film entitled, of course, "Harry Potter and the Secret Chamberpot of Azerbaijan". I'm not revealing you "the secret" in this one -you get to know it from the first minute, anyway-. I'll only say that it explains perfectly well why Dawn French is playing Harry.
The episode features scenes from the actual Harry Potter second film (that is, Chamber of Secrets) but with a twist. So, we get to see Dawn French as Harry (brilliant performance), Jennifer Saunders as Ron (doing what "movie-Ron" does best: screaming) and Miranda Richardson as Hermione (you can only wish she had more lines). You can imagine the result!
The episode also includes interviews with the "actors". They're hilarious. Specially the ones given by the older characters. They actually complain about how they only get a few lines in the movie and so on. Jeremy Irons is specially amazing as the actor playing Snape. It even got me thinking he could've been a good choice for that role in the real films.
There's even an interview with Jennifer Saunders as J.K. Rowling. She imitated her so well It was perfect! In conclusion, if you have the chance to watch it, do it. It's worth your time.
