"Los Simuladores" tells the story of 5 associates who run a "Simulation" business, that is, they simulate situations in order to make a person change his mind about something or help people to get out of different kinds of situations. The series is highly entertaining. The different roles the actors perform are truly marvelous and the stories are wonderfully told. To sum it up, it's a great show, with an excellent plot.

If there was an Argetinian show, this is it! How could anyone ever imagine that one guy could ever imagine all this? 4 very different guys... doing each one of them what they're prepared to do... gathered together, working as a team, solving problems ''which nobody can solve''... what's the result of this? (plus very good sense of humor - realistic topics - some action - history facts events) THE MOST GORGEOUS TOTALLY AMAZING TALENTED SHOW!! If you're from other part of the world... whatever you're thinking live it all behind and give yourself the possibility to enjoy this TV work of art... for me we could compare the difference (then GREAT SUCCESS) between JJ ABRAMS'S LOST and the other shows in Northamerica and ''LOS SIMULADORES (PRETENDERS)'' and the other shows in Argentina. In both cases you can only say ''There's no other like this. No other.'' 4 WORDS SAID from Damian Szifrom (Director-creator)--- Santos: Brain, Lampone: Strengh, Medina: Heart, and Ravenna: Humor-artistic (each one separated and together in a bigger and perfect body).

This TV series is the best a human mind can create. Is about four men that solve problems, but this problems occurs to normal people with normal lifes. The method they use to solve problems is the simulation.

Many people in Argentina thinks why this series being remaded in other countries hadn't have the success that had in this country. In my opinion the answer is simple, Los Simuladores is a series to be made only in Argentina for the type of humor, themes treated and also the problems that this four men solve are typical for Argentina's habitants. That's why Los Simuladores inmediatly entered in Argentinian's homes. Los Simuladores are so Argentinian as Maradona or Tango are.....

From all of the tv shows that I've ever seen from Argentina, this is by far the best one. A very good execution of an amazing idea.

This team that resolves troubles from any people who found them, become one of the best tv series of argentina. Is the best ever made. No one reached this kind of joy and jokes with funny plots every episode.

One of the best TV series in Argentina. Realistic and original stories. Small budget in the production but with astonishing results!

If You only watched this series, and had to suffer the other really poor series made in Argentina (Adrian Suar one's, and so on). So You may think that this one is the best. But in other hand I could show You that the script, or maybe the whole idea or project, was "inspired" in two, not well known here, previous series. They are "Stingray" 1986-1987, and "Vengeance Unlimited" 1998-1999. I've to admit that "Los Simuladores" is a good series, its director, its actors, its photography, etc., anyway it have some serious flaws. But I can´t forget it isn't an original script, it's a non annunciated adaptation.

So if You think that it is the best argentinian series ever made, I want you to remember there was two previous series that told the same story with a much more precise and flawless script. I encourage You to try to watch any of this previous series, so you'll can make your conclusion. I think that it is just a good "not original" series, that could be even better.

I just re watch "Los Simuladores" and find so many thing poorly made... the script it's just great,the character development is the strong point of this series but at some point the show just go down whit the quality,too many things whit no sense,the characters just do things without think about it!! it's like the victims or the bad boys just don't have any motivation at all,are easy to handle and at some point even stupid.

Damian Szifron is a great director but whit this...i think was a little lazy near the end. Anyway,the first season is a must watch for any Argentinean,the second...well in my humble opinion was a mistake.
