Yeni, mère porteuse

Terrible acting! They rush through scenes but it doesn't matter. You will likely turn the channel just as fast anyway. The actors and not authentic and the story line is abysmal. Men try to kidnap a lady while she's riding in the car with her dad. He stills the gun and kills one kidnapper and wounds the other. Instead of leaving the daughter tries to resuscitate the kidnapper I guess so he can try again, smh.

The accents are off and the characters are all way too helpful like the friend that wants to sell her business and give up her life to bail her friend's dad out of jail. I need friends like that.

This is one of the worst tv shows I've ever seen. It has a "good story" but it wasn't delivered correctly. This could have been 6 episodes maximum, 24 is just excessive. The story just drags and drags with new characters that don't really add much. A lot of scenes were completely unnecessary, adding nothing to the story. Yeni's acting performance is just awful. A lot of characters could have been omitted and it would have been better. I couldn't continue watching it after episode 12. It's very very hard to watch, there was a point i which I was very confused as to what was happening, I had no idea what the plot was. I don't recommend it.

The main chick Yani acting needs help. Her expressions, her gestures her everything lol... needs help. The show seems to go on and on by episode getting no where! A lot of people roles in this series could have been omitted. The whole seria could have been over in episode One... but nooo they drag it out to a complete mess... the show drags to the point where it's hard to watch and stupid things start to happen because they need to make episodes. 24 episodes of complete stupidity.... They talk about this "Indian" chick Yani. But honestly she looks Hispanic/Mexican. I'm no racist AT ALL. However I wish they could have found a better Surrogate because someone about her is not sexy or appealing to the eye.

24 episodes of this drivel, I have no idea how you can watch 24 episodes and still not really fully understand what happened and more importantly why!

The description and the start appeared promising, however it started going down hill pretty soon.

Terrible acting, the worst being Yeni and then her son when he is a young adult. Far too many characters which makes it confusing.

Not sure why but Yeni doesn't have much of a liability factor - perhaps its because she took someone else's husband and came up smelling of roses as a result.

The ending just seemed absolutely ludicrous.

Just awful!

This is a long series - 24 episodes. I have read a number of reviews here and acknowledge some of the weaknesses - not well known actors, some scripting and storyline difficulties etc. However, this series is well worth watching. Obviously some reviewers have NOT watched the series - the plot does NOT talk about identical twins, rather it is dizygotic pregnancy (look it up!!). Here the story touches on issues such as racism and prejudice in Mexico, the role of indigenous persons, power and abuse by the elite, indigenous culture, sexual identity, class distinction, greed and many other classic themes. And it does so very well. I agree, it is probably too long and could be shortened, but 'The Surrogacy' is well worth watching.
