Watched a few Spanish series before, and to be honest, they ain't good at all...Scandinavian series are much better. We just finished a film called The Blind on Netflix...I don't even want to comment about it...what a waste of time!
ReplyDeleteYes, Spanish shows are usually dull and they are not done in a linear style so it is difficult to follow them, plus they have a lot of terrible actresses. Just look at this one above, zero radiance for a lead role.
DeleteI agree. She is very bland. While I usually like to watch things centered around food, this one probably isn't one I'll tune in to.
ReplyDeleteAnd where did they find that fugly skirt for her on top of that fugly hairdo?
DeleteChurch thrift store most likely LMAO!
