[TV] Crematorio

[arkady_]

So I finally watched this award winning series about political corruption in Spain. And I have to agree with everyone: it's brilliant. I loved the opening credits, the truthfulness with which everything was told (no fancy whores, no romanticized villains, no pure evil characters either, things are what they are -no more and no less) and it has so

I checked out a trailer on YouTube, it looks good.

Did you find it on English?

Nope, it was in Spanish. I don't have as much practice understanding it as English, but I get by. I watch El Ministerio del Tiempo with Spanish subs on TVE's website. They don't do geoblocking, unlike UK/US channels.

You're lucky. I tried to watch something on their website from France a while ago and I couldn't do it (but maybe it had to do with doing it on my phone).

Where are you from? And do you laugh with EMDT? Because it's such a Spanish sense of humour that I wasn't sure any foreigner was going to enjoy as much as us.

It sounds very interesting!

Well, it is. :)

Vi la serie hace unos años, y recuerdo que me encantó por lo bien hecha que está (y lo triste que es ver la situación en la que está nuestro país) La recuerdo dura, y como tú dices... no hay malos-malos. Es gente real que ha tomado X decisiones en la vida.

Claro, cuando todo el mundo la viste. xD Yo como soy un poco retrasada para estas cosas me acabé poniendo este año.

Si te digo la verdad a mí más que resultarme dura me alivió por acercarme a ese mundo y dejarme un poco más claro cómo va. Porque en verdad no tenía ni idea de cómo funciona la corrupción a gran escala.

This sounds so interesting. And a bit like Forbrydelsen in the way that treated murder as a very real thing, rather than the usual murder mystery show. Going to see if I can find anywhere to watch/catch a few trailers. Thank you for the rec!

I didn't watch that one so I can't tell.

Let me know if you finally get your hands on it. :) I'm sorry I can't help you but I have no idea where and how it got outside of Spain. Or if there are English subs around, I imagine Spanish products can be hard to find.
