Griselda (2024)
Worth watching
This series was far better than what I was expecting. The acting is done extremely well so everything feels real not like how some of these shows are so far fetched with bad lines and scenes where nothing is believable. They've done a good job with the actors outfits and the set because everything looks exactly like it did in the 70s and 80s. Honestly the only gripe I have is that everything isn't exactly accurate to Griseldas story and how things happened in real life. I suppose alot of people probably won't really know her story and it's not enough of a big deal to sway you from watching or not watching it. Since the show goes into great detail i just would have preferred them to keep true to how things actually happened instead of some of the things the show has changed. For instance, how Rivi is introduced in the show. In real life they met by chance because Rivi messed a hit up, and Rivi is super essential to Griselda so I don't really understand the way they wrote him and her husband Dario becuase in real life it was Rivi doing alot of the things the show has Dario doing. Overall I'd definitely recommend watching, it's not as good as Narcos but will definitely keep you entertained through every episode.
Berlín (2023)
Could have been so much better
I'm still struggling to understand why they picked Berlin for this spin off after how inherently evil he was in money heist. All the things he did made most people hate him so this was a peculiar choice. This show is not much different. It could have been close to money heist but it's nowhere near as good. The show focuses more on romance between the characters than it actually does the heist. Berlin character is played well but is so annoying because he's constantly acting like Mr perfect who can do know wrong, is a complete hypocrite and does the same things he tells the other members not to do but it's ok if he does them. I didn't watch this to watch a romance drama I'm not sure why that theme is so heavy throughout the entire series but it completely changes the feel of this.
Braqueurs (2021)
Could have been good without the kids
This could have actually been good if they didn't choose these characters and write them the way they did. First off 2 amateur nobodies would have NEVER been able to rob somebody for 8 kilos of cocaine and with no plan to even get rid of it. The way they wrote the main female chatachter in this is so frustratingly annoying. Disrespectful, arrogant, ignorant, self centered, blaming everybody for your mistakes and constant screw ups is so unbelievably annoying to watch and it happens over and over again. Then we're supposed to believe one guy took these annoying screw up kids and made them basically professional street ppl and killers over night is a joke. I don't understand how people write shows like this. At least make the plot and characters believable please is that so hard to do. Without some serious plot holes and annoying kids this could have been good.
My Dad the Bounty Hunter (2023)
Could be better
I give the show a solid right in the middle 5 star score. The graphics are extremely well done from space, aliens, spaceships and so on, episodes are fairly short around 30 minutes making it easier to watch. It's an alright show but it would have been so, so much better if they wrote the characters differently. For some reason recently I've been seeing alot of shows with characters ppl do not like. The kids are overwhelmingly annoying, bratty, don't listen. Making it extremely hard to like them. If they changed that and how the made the Dad like he was an idiot I'd rate it alot higher. Overall kids will probably really enjoy this but as an adult it's kind of hard to watch.
