      Definitely worth a watch! A tragicomedy of socialist proportions.

      The series is great. Please watch this gem when it premiers outside of UNASUR. Sony Pictures did well attempting a Shakespearean tragicomedy with Hugo Chavez's life along with other plots of ordinary citizens. The juxtapositions of historical events, human aspirations, and the ironies of good human intentions is what makes this series a worthwhile watch.

      Andres Para, of Escobar El Parton del Mal fame (which inspired Narcos if we're being honest) is good as Chavez. I wouldn't doubt if Netflix is once again inspired to develop this topic further.
