Really impressed
I've already finished; the series premiered this morning.
I think that it's really interesting drama, with many intrigues.,interesting characters (you may recognize people from your life), beautiful scenes. Actors are really beautiful and talented - generally young people acting so professionally. Story itself is really provocative, once you start, you can't stop, that's how I finished it in less than 24 hours and I am already hoping that there will be season 2.
I have to say that they have used some really good songs.
Well, I think it's a nict show to watch.
Thank you Netflix !

Started amazingly but became rocky from the fourth season
Season 6
There's been a noticeable decline in this series from the fourth season, and season 6 isn't any different. It's a series that has genuinely overstayed its welcome, and this is very evident as none of the original cast is present in this season. The jaded plot stumbles and pirouettes with no flair, and tries to make up for it with more dancing, drinking and substance taking. Many societal issues are raised, but their executions are perfunctory and superficial.
The twist to the season's whodunit was well-done and the season's ending is a frustrating but clever cliffhanger, promising that more harm is coming to Las Encinas. With season seven on the way, I hope they can return with the charm the first three seasons delivered and come up with a satisfying end to the series.

Just why....
Why did they spoil it? I actually loved Season 1 to the point i keep watching it non stop. Season 2 and 3 were also great but i liked them less than 1.
But suddenly they decided to destroy the entire series with Season 4 and 5, OMG these two seasons are terrible to be kind , poor contents , annoying characters and predictable endings were mainly what made them so unwatchable.
Now i hope the creators will make a great season 6 even though the majority of characters are missing , but i have doubts..

Guilty Pleasure
S1 to S3 were great but S4 is a major letdown. It seems the characters suffer from amnesia because they keep repeating the same mistakes followed by illogical actions which follow such mistakes. Like I for one couldn't understand how characters just betray, forgive and forget so easily only to repeat this cycle countless times. "It was just sex" the characters make the relationships sound so insignificant with this dialogue and to top it all this statement does work as an excuse. All in all it was fine initially but now it's gotten on my nerves how stupid the characters of this show are.
Spanish Gossip Girl Whodunit
Solidly entertaining for what it is. Think every tenn show you've ever seen and add a dash of the Affair or How To Get Away With Murder. It's melodrama through and through. Pretty teens. Uncaring families. Poor little rich girls and boys. Even poorer poor kids. Nobody is happy in this world. Somebody winds up dead. Somebody's going to jail. You find somebody to love you'd better hang on tooth and nail. The wolf is always at the door.
It deals with some real issues: notably Islamaphobia and the repressive nature of fundamentalism, coming out of the closet, open relationships and threesomes, HIV and the seeming impossibility of reinventing yourself in highschool. All hormones, no autonomy. Such is life.
Well worth a binge watch if you're stuck inside on a rainy day. You won't find yourself transfixed but you will want to know what happens next. The writing felt a little stale but of course translations and voiceovers don't always capture the rhythm of the original dialogue. Still something tells me the writer isn't Spain's answer to Shondre Rhimes or Aaron Sorkin.
