Acapulco

This show is easy to watch - it is super cute, super fun - easy viewing! It's generally wholesome and just simple and fun. It's a great show! Just watch one episode and I promise you'll watch more!

I get that these days series have to be either controversial, political or "squid game" brutal to differentiate themselves but I think we need more of these easy watch good feeling series right now. Yes it's not realistic, yes could be better but it's enjoyable, characters are likeable and the visual are fun, so yes let's not be overly critical about it and compare it to other series out there who are trying to push the boundaries. So far so good!

I just found this show during my free trial of AppleTV+ and I've managed to binge most of it in a single night. I'm already glad there's gonna be a second season coming out soon! So, not only is this show a throwback to the 80s in terms of aesthetic, it's a throwback to the days of writing character arcs that don't move too fast or aren't chopped up. Every person has a reason to be on screen and advance the story, which never lulls. Between the story, acting and production values, I can't really ask much more from a show. Glad I started it, and I will continue watching. Kudos to everyone involved!

I can't believe these bad reviews. This show is charming and lovely and funny. It's my new favorite show. It's feel good tv to escape this horrible world for a moment. Do not believe the negative comments. The lead man is handsome and charismatic. Watch the show for yourself and decide.

Don't get the negativity. If it's too "woke" it's bad. If it's too "simple" it's bad. If it's too "deep" it's bad. What's wrong with a light hearted simple comedy like this these days? Nothing.

This is just a rehash of an old stereotypical story of a Mexican guy becoming rich, except that's kind the point, the comedy is supposed to come from this because parts of it are silly as older Maximo tries to tell the story of how he got to be rich while kind of embellishing the story (which takes place in the 80s in a resort in Acapulco) and telling it to a young kid. Light hearted simple stuff. Pretty solid if that's what you're after and nicely filmed.

I think what the real problem is Apple doesn't market these shows well. The trailers give no real sense of what it is, who it's for, or even do a good job of making the show attractive to any audience let alone it's target.
