Porn and Ice Cream

Hilarious series that tells the story of a group of unsuccessful thirtysomethings. Some scenes are very very funny. The story is told in the city of Buenos Aires with many features of the millennial and the argentinian culture (fight uber vs taxis, economic crisis, 30's crisis, get rich, specialty coffees, be cool, rock band, etc etc).

Abrazo Martin Piro!

Sali.

A clear case of a series that, without being a big deal, managed to hook more than one person with its first season.

Its freshness, simple humor (very simple at times) managed to capture my attention.

Its initial story, as simple as it was, was well-woven. At the same time, with the appropriate cameos, it managed to become a kind of phenomenon in Argentina/Uruguay and nearby areas.

How did we go from that to this second horrible season? The answer surely comes hand in hand with the meager budget that was clearly given to them.

It is cheaper in every way, script, dialogues, plots, locations where it is filmed. Few cameos unlike the previous season.

All this results in repetitive plots, without grace, with isolated self-contained chapters: the sect of the Rolling Stones fans, the scammer, the storm, etc., etc.

It does not seem that there is a minimum interest in bringing the plot to a good end.

The end? A total nonsense, both the trial and everything that happens, it is absurd, but not absurdly funny but boring, repetitive, without ideas.

The last thing with the DeLorean taxi and Harry paying homage to Doc makes no sense, it goes against everything the series was up to that point.

It seems to me that there is no way to revive the series, it will surely be cancelled and if they are given more budget I can't imagine how they will do the future...maybe they will invent that it was all a dream? It would be the most logical way to fix that horrible ending.

For me the first season is a 7 and the second a 3.

Excelente demostración de carácter por parte del director, Martín Piroyansky, protagonista, guionista y director de la producción. Casting revelador y tomas cinematográficas. Aguante Argentina, pa!

I'm very glad I stumbled on this new show as it is extremely funny, with gags on many levels: think Spaced, Broad City, Seinfeld or early Simpsons. The characters are compelling and warm, and there's a certain sweetness to it that means you root for the lovable losers even when they sabotage themselves.

While you might not get the appeal of a post-modern Argentinian sitcom on paper it really is a gem you should try.

This show is everything in one: captivating, hilariously nonsensical, quirky, and more importantly, laugh out loud funny. Fantastic effort in writing, directing, photography, costume design, song writing! This show is simply fantastic, especially season 2; I was honestly "saving episodes" as I didn't want it to end! And for days I had the songs stuck in my head, even though I don't speak Spanish. It's really refreshing to see such a high level South American production - you should give this show a try if you're looking for a bingeworthy, young at heart, clever musical comedy - Porno y Helado has it all.
