Started good. But after episode 8 it became stupid and too long. I mean: how many times can a guy get accused and how many times can police screw up???

It started nicely then got boring. Instead of 13 episodes it should have been 8 max.

This is addictive viewing of a terrible series. Plotting is clumsy, the script is fine for a 1st year graduate of film studies, and the wooden acting so prevalent , it starts to look like an ikea store! Assumptions are made, jumped to and quickly forgotten as our unconvincing hero, wrongly accused of a murder he didn't commit 7 years ago races around with his pretty lawyer ( really! ) as they play detectives to try and clear his name,The sub plots become increasingly annoying ( female empowerment, drugs , Bolivians, infidelity, corruption, filial loyalty, mental health, parenting etc ) as the series drags itself to its inevitable conclusion,. And yet you feel compelled to watch until the end like a horrible accident you're about to witness. Rubbish but perfect to turn off your brain.to Marbella looks pretty though !

Don't expect a high-quality story / acting. But this is great fun during this corona quarantine. Handsome men, a murder and many conspiracies. A story that is easy to follow. That's how I get through these days.

First, the ending is the setup for season 2. Get it? If viewers found it so bad that they had to trash it, why did the finish watching it? I wanted to rate this 10 stars because I enjoyed it so much, but truth be told it had it's flaws, which I found easy enough to over look. After all, I watch videos to be entertained. If they don't do that I simply "stop watching". There's lots of male eye candy, murder, mystery and suspense, dysfunctional family feuding and a love story or two. The quality isn't great but good enough to get by. One thing to remember, this is a "Spanish" production and should not be judged my American standards. Looking forward to Season 2.

Mostly good series but with a very stupid and disappointing ending. Can be at least 3 episodes shorter. it leaves a number of things unanswered. I hope people don't want to make 13 new episodes about that.

I truly Enjoyed this Spanish series. I started watching because of the lead character thinking I might watch 20-30 minutes and then I would Be bored and shut it off. I really got involved In it and enjoyed all the mysteries. We would Definitely entertain watching a PART 2 Boys and Toys With the same Characters. Thanks for entertaining me for several hours !!!

Or the view? Ok ...so no awards for acting excellence...but it's entertaining enough. It's fun...cheesy...and passes the time.

But of course it's the bodies that brought me to the show, not the body of work. So leave your brain at the door & clean ur glasses. Enjoy.

Addictive eye candy murder mystery fun ride. Hope for more in future

I think it was a good one! Something happens in every episode ...so you are hooked ! Thow I must say it sometimes made me very frustrated and the characters could be pretty stupid from time to time.... What I did like with the series is the way they made almost everyone seem suspicious and in the end u didn't even know what to think !!! Im hoping for a season 2!!!

Review: Where should I begin? I mean, the premise of this one is quite good. Really. Unfortunately, that is where most of the show's greatness ends. The series just did not manage to execute the story well. The characters aren't very likable and often irritated me. Their emotions do not have a lot of depth and it was difficult for me to feel very invested in their lives. Still, I tried. And I succeeded a little when it came to Andrea's storyline, but the main characters left me cold. I just didn't really care. So add to this the incredibly slow pacing, and you have me bored to tears. Seriously, this was a very long series and it felt dragged out. I just wanted to get it over with. All the twists and turns got old after a while, and it didn't excite or intrigue me in the least.

Top three characters: 1) Macarena Medina de Solís, 2) Andrea Norman Medina and 3) Hugo Beltrán González.

Least favourite character: Everyone else.

Really got hooked on to this one...loved it...wish there were more seasons... then

I think it's a super series, those who criticize seem to me to be sold, it's different and the story is super entertaining, I recommend it 100% the Spanish series are the best for the Thrillers!

The translation is not good; The captions give bad edits and mis-quotes the español to the U.S. english netflix market. hottie Jesús Mosquera is Hugo. he was a stripper, who blacked out and woke up next to a dead body.he serves part of his time in jail, but along comes Triana (María Pedraza), a young, up-and-coming law student, looking for a convict to help get out of jail. she tells Hugo right up front that she's only doing it for the career moves. the story itself is pretty good, but between the translation and some odd story turns, it starts a little silly. witnesses start turning up D-E-D dead. some shirtless performances when Hugo goes back to the only profession he knows. and SO many long, drawn out, glaring stares. it's told in thirteen episodes... although the story could have been done in about half that without all of the repetition and Long pauses. There are some redeeming features here... 1. the hot, shirtless guys that dance around once or twice an episode, and keep coming up with new themes. 2. the suspense of who might still be guilty of the larger crimes here. we have a pretty good idea of who is NOT guilty, but there are still a couple suspects who might be guilty of those crimes. 3. beautiful scenery of Màlaga, Spain. 4. inclusion of many groups...alternative life styles, a mute, a cute black guy. this is definitely a case where you have to stick with it... it DOES get better as it goes along. and it's hilarious that one of the characters is named "Macarena". can't help but think of the song from the 1990s. Toy Boy is a tv series from Spain. directed by Iñaki Mercero. pretty good stuff, if you follow it through to the end.

The writers ruined this series. Could have been so much better, but the lines were so cheesy. A shame really.

The actress that portrays the role doesnt perform well. She has the same miserable character all the time. Its so unfortunate for me that i have to watch her on all three series, elite, money heist and toy boy.

She gives this problematic, sad and lifeless character all the time and it drags the life of the series. Its a fun, action and suspense filled series but all she give is this low energy vibes. If you watch the series shes in, you'll get it.

The first season is a 5/10 for me because it drags on for way too long.

In the second season "toy boy" found its pace and improved the overall mystery. But the ending is similarly bad as in the first season. It doesn't answer any questions, it just adds more and it ends with a huge cliffhanger yet again. I don't mind the cliffhanger, but they could've at least wrapped up a few plot points.

This was good until the episode 6, then it's always repetitive. Should've made it 10 episodes long, and of 40 50 mins, not 13 episodes of 1 hr 10 mins, at the end I was wishing for it to end, predictable ending too, actually trash series, don't waste your time

Very addictive plot that sucks you in starting from the first episode. In between some very well-performed dance moves. Waiting for season 2!

If you are a lady - then Yes! Really attractive first episode, with sexy scenes and a nice plot twist. However, as soon as the story starts in later episodes, you realise the bad acting and story gaps.. It could be better perhaps if it was shorter and skip some unnecessary story lines ...

If you were one of the people looking to have a good time watching a series that is not long and not bad ... then this series is for you ... as I said the series is not bad and the acting in it is not strong but not bad ... but it could have been Much stronger if some details were added in the text, story or perhaps some suspense

For the plot twist, the photography etc..need season 2 for revenge, to see what will happen also with the cop
