Harina

This is an amusing modern series from Mexico. It starts off quite promising but by the 4th episode, the story starts to falter and it really becomes absurd. The humor is satirical at times but becomes more slapstick towards the end. The sound is pretty terrible, and sometimes the background music prevents the actors voices from being heard. The comedy is really not very clever, but is more at the level of a poorly done American sitcom. Might have been better if they had taken more time to make the writing a bit more satirical. So, while it does have a promising start, it unfortunately runs out of steam at the end.

Great cast, kind of a good story. The best thing about this series are the satires about the Mexican police and topics such as violence, corruption, organized crime, drugs, and the culture clash between Mexico and the United States. I hope Harina doesn't last longer than it should.

Despite being a spin off of a backdoor sketch, backdoor is a mexican youtube channel, the plot has its own and somewhat original script, since most mexican comedy or mexican black comedy deal with the same thing and they repeat many famous phrases in their scripts.

Mexico has a good potential with its rich culture and its vast number of actors.

Nothing better than good acting, scenes and comedy mixed in one. The main character is refreshing and hilarious without going over the top. I really enjoyed this series and i hope more like it are introduced. I binged watched this i just could not stop myself. Well done!

It may have started as a spinoff of a viral sketch, but this story stands on its own. This is incredibly funny, amazingly written and with an unexpected twist at the end. Must watch!

Great cast and great writing! Such a refreshing Mexican production. This series has comedy (lots of it), drama, action, a great plot with insane twists. The lower than usual budget (for such a popular show) is noticeable but If this show had the budget of american series, I really believe it has the potential to be one of the best series out there today. The fact that this is a spin off from a 2 minute sketch makes it even more impressive. The writers did an outstanding job, the plot is solid and the way they can add comedy in the right places without breaking the tension of the thriller genre is top notch. Can't wait for a 3rd season!
