The Accident

So I don't know why the ratings are so bad and low. I read someone's comment that said 2/3 sex scenes in every episode . Erm helloooo did we watch the same series? Because I don't remember this series being about sex at all.

The genre is drama and that's exactly what they gave.

A lot of drama and fast paced.

There was something new happening every time. It's not like those series where over 30 mins can be absolutely unnecessary.

It was good. Drama and drama is all I can say.

Characters acted their parts well. Great story.

I will say the over reactions to what the character who caused the accident was a bit over dramatic.

I watched it in Spanish, my mother tongue, which I always enjoy, but the massive, intrusive high proportion of foul language- just every few words- turned me off and ruined it. The soap opera over-emotional burden is daunting. 90% of the series becomes predictable, though the 10% remaining do present some twists to justify a mild thriller or at least a mystery. Characters are cardboard for the most part. I couldn't find one single outstanding actor either. Except the kids, who once gone, very early, are sorely missed. The story is interesting, even original, and the sadness real and communicative. But a huge editing job was needed, in many respects. Pity, it had great potential.

With tinges of overacting, I still recommend watching the ACCIDENT. Everyone is flawed as everyone is affected. There are villains a plenty, with great acting by the main villain Charro. I particularly enjoyed the constant interplay of different storylines by the main couples. Yes, you could have omitted the three sex scenes, added nothing. But that's just me.

I found the dialogue believable and well written. Many modern themes are delineated with nuance: materialism, avarice, infidelity, drug use, parental abuse and neglect, classicism. The city of Santa Cruz and the surrounding area make a beautiful backdrop to all the action.

... having its own Spanish-soap dumb-charm, with quite a few stupid happenings... like putting a brick in a ziplock-bag weighing-down a couple items thrown into a river, when items on their own would be impossible floating

... everyone-characters overacting more than not can wear viewers down... just watch without overthinking and it becomes less-annoying more-watchable... every actor filling their parts pretty well... one stands out that without him this production would not have succeeded much at all... Alberto Guerra as the hated villain Charro... he alone is worth viewing-time, making most of each-every evil-minute onscreen

... ending as-if there's another season coming... bet many of those giving poor ratings will be watching again, it's that guilty-pleasure-allure.

There is no way this series is less than a 6 in rate.

1. The Plot is great, although it has a lot of things of Mexican novelas, I think that making a series about a simple mistake that could've been avoided is interesting.

2. Everything that happens because of unawareness and how families react is worth watching.

3. The series display deep family issues, toxic patterns, cowardice, ambition, negligence and injustice.

4. This series is not racist, do not believe in the reviews that are saying this. It's way the opposite.

5. Awesome actors

What I did not like: 1. The overreaction of some characters 2. That it was a series instead of a movie: because it had to be overwritten to make it interesting. I don't know how it will go with a second season.
