Land of Women

I love that they speak spanish in this comedy it reminds me of desperate housewives gabys character which is refreshing, i always wanted more. So far im hooked on the plot, great story so far. My only gripe is the daughters character doesnt seem to be a great actor the voice pitches are all over the place. Like pick a tone it really takes me out of immersion because i keep getting annoyed with the sudden shifts in her vocal pitch and tone. I get that the character is trans but if jewels from euphoria can do it honey, so can you. The story seems exciting and they sure are in for an adventure, Im looking forward to watching the rest of the season! Im hoping its more than one!

I don't speak Spanish but saw Eva Longoria was in it and the story seemed interesting; it is a mix of Spanish and English but has English subtitles. Glad I decided on it because it is a show that really pulls you in. The characters feel real and relatable, with each one adding something special to the mix; the actors do a great job bringing their roles to life. It says it is a drama but does have funny parts with some quirky characters and I like that it has enough positive; I am not a fan of dramas that don't put enough positive. If is all around a good watch and look forward to the next season!

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.

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.
