The Surrogacy

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.

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.

Prepare to be captivated by a gripping tale that delves deep into the shadowy underbelly of surrogacy, unearthing a web of astonishing secrets, twisted lies, and jaw-dropping revelations that challenge the very fabric of society. This riveting series explores the harrowing world of "colorism" and racism, shining a harsh light on the plight of indigenous people. With its thought-provoking narrative and masterful writing, it skillfully leaves viewers questioning their own beliefs and perceptions. Brace yourself for an unforgettable journey into a realm where nothing is as it seems, and prepare to have your mind blown by a story that demands to be seen.

It seems that they ran out of storyline, then they decided to form a story like a ten year old child. There's no connection between yeni and Carlos, and I m sorry to say this, they would have used a more attractive lady for the role of yeni. Also there's a lot of loops holes in the story. At some point I didn't understand what they were doing, my advice is that you should watch it on the speed of 1.25 or 1.5. Though I must commend Nora and Julia, they acted their roles well, Roberto acts reluctantly, he seems not to enjoy his role. Yeni' s acting got better and also looked better towards the end of the show.

I kept watching episode after episode in the hope that the next one would be better. But it definitely didn't. So I gave up after episode 5. The storyline and storytelling is incredibly weak and all the episodes I watched felt dragging. It could have been great if the storytelling and the storyline was clear and the acting was good. It felt like there were too many characters that had a big part in this. I usually finish movies and series that I watch, even if they are not that good, to give it a chance. But this one had 24 episodes! Way too many if you ask me. For the people that want to finish the series, I hope it gets better! But something tells me, it won't.
