Land of Women

Such a funny & and delightful story. Eva Longoria is an amazing actor, one of the best series on Apple TV combine many ingredients that become the series in a very funny , entertaining story. Also I love how they can pass from the English to the Spanish language, well done. So if you want to see something different laugh a bit, laying down in your bed and watching a great serie , with a different perspective and feel the same kind of feeling of being in the middle of nowhere in an small town in Spain with wonderful actress you can really enjoy this, it's light, simple and raw, so sit and enjoy.

The role of her daughter was just not convincing for me and her voice kept cracking. She was super snippy and not seasoned enough to carry the show with Eva. The dynamic was not there with this trio, I found it not funny. I need to be convinced of kinship and these casted roles were too far fetched with no dynamics. I love Eva in Desperate House Wives (all sorts of dynamics there) and that is why I tuned into this show. The show did not meet my expectations, this show actually turned me off. I could not get past the first episode and Im bilingual so I understood every word. Perhaps known and proven actors along side her in this role would have propelled the energy significantly.

Trying to look at this through the lenses of a good script and good cinatorgaphy etc and you're going to hate it!

If you watch it to escape the news and outside noise and think of it like a Hallmark movie then your fine.

It's a very predictable storyline. There are ridiculous scene changes with dramatic rain all of a sudden, make not feel soap opera y. But the scenery is nice and it's lovely to have a bilingual movie introducing the world to Catalonia.

Enjoy that part of you're looking for a silly escape. Don't try to focus on the other things that make this a made for tv movie style. It's a filler for the network I'm sure. I don't think anyone in production expected this to win an award.

Great summer serie to watch that is full of events and twists. Flasbacks from the past also keeps the story refreshing. However that was not my original thought when I started to wacth it (almost gave up after episode 2), but as the story moves ahead things start happening it turns out the story moves ahead rapidly. Nice that the events takes place in Europe. Bit too short season though, hopefully the season 2 is coming soon since the last episode of the season endend on a place where I would have like to continue to watch the next episode immediately. Bit different and refreshing serie to watch.

Watched the first two episodes this week and both my husband and I are loving it. It's light, funny, clever and has gorgeous scenery. And having the show be in both English and (primarily) Spanish gives it real sense of authenticity. And I'm confused about the viewers who have a problem with the language choices, since Apple has been advertising this as a bilingual show from the beginning.

The cast are all great, Eva Longoria is as entertaining as ever and Santiago Cabrera is always a delight to watch in anything.

Pour yourself a glass of red and get swept away in the scenery and the sense of family and community.
