This show is based on the real story of the Narcos in Spain during the 80s. The era is really god presented here in every aspect.

I really enjoyed this show. There are great actors here like the GC Sargent by Tristan Ulloa or all the narcos.

I don't know what the people who gave it bad reviews were watching. I thought it was excellent, I binge watched this over a period of half a day. It was that good.

You can see the similarities with 'Narcos' and I think it holds it's own with it. Like Narcos, based on a true story and real life characters. Brings another dimension to the cocaine trade and how it entered Europe.

I recommend it highly, you should still be able to catch it on Netflix.

When a tobacco smuggling cartel in Galicia, Spain Coast turn to drug trafficking with the support of Colombian Cartel suppliers, things begin to taste sour in the Galician society. A lone policy sergeant go in a crusade against them and all the corruption political system that turns a blind eye. Based on true events. It is very well crafted with lots of action suspense and vibrant character development. Gripping, kept me glued to my TV set.

This based in true events serie is one of the best production coming from Spain this year. The casting and actors are all at their best, most of them I expect to see again in the coming years due to this success. I have to mention the choice of music which is perfect to create the thrill of the story, it gives the right 80s rock, punk and folk atmosphere and social background.

The serie tells the story of narco trafficking in Galicia (north of Spain) in the 80s and how it changed the economy, society and politics. The serie focuses on the families and clans that went from being cigarettes smugglers to become narcos and the consequences of their decisions.

Watch it if you are looking for a thrilling narco story on an unique setting.

The screenplay is based in the first giant judicial cause against narcos in Spain. It is a perfect representation of the time: the music, the accent, the way they move, the clothing, the cars, how they male smoke, the Atlantic ocean. The political corruption. In the first years of democracy in Spain. Don't expect it to be an American narcos series. It is just the way it was.
