Worthwhile and Funny.
elondono9 April 2020
It is a great comedy, but it also has great message to all. It shows how people can change and be good.

A Spanish Telenovela with French Farce Flavor
qui_j7 September 2019
It's good to see that some of the streaming sites are investing in a "new" genre of Telenovelas, that are almost satires for the genre itself. This is one such offering from Colombia, the other is "House of Flowers" from Mexico. The Spanish spoken is difficult to understand (and usually Colombian Spanish is one of the more grammatical and easily understood varieties) but a lot of street slang is used that is specific to Colombia so that makes it hard at times. I guess this is to add authenticity to the character roles. Overall, it's funny enough to keep you watching, and the characters are weird enough to keep the viewer engaged.

Unfortunately, as with many of the Colombian Telenovelas, this one goes on for too long, and loses it's satirical edge, becoming more like a standard silly Telenovela, replete with a lot of crying, sickly sweet background music that drowns out voices, and thoroughly spoiled children whose bad behavior seems to be celebrated rather than corrected. That is not a recipe for success in the global market, and something that the creators of this series will need to address if they wish to have their series taken seriously on a global streaming platform.

This show is beyond words. It has almost everything. The acting is so good. One of the best shows on Netflix. It is a must see binge watch that you will never forget for any honest person.

Rich powerful guy tries to make it right by doing the right thing with the help of his loyal lovable wise guys and his Patron Saint, St. Judas . 60 plus 45 minute episodes. It's binge watching nirvana.
