Narcos: Mexico (Netflix)

Mz iMac — Tue, 16 Jun 2020 03:19:05 GMT

What a ride. Finished binge watching season 1.

It is the true story about the start of the Mexican drug cartel(s) and the early DEA. Specifically one particular DEA agent named KiKi. I do remember seeing him in the news.

The series is in both English & Spanish (subtitled). It's 90% in Spanish (subtitled).

One of the main Mexican characters Felix reminded me of Michael Corleone in looks & the way he carried himself.

Will delve into season 2 next week. I need a break from all the bloodshed.

=====================================

I remember a few years ago there was a tv series called Narcos. That series was about the DEA & the rise & end of Pueblo Escobar. I do not remember which station carried it.

I saw online that there **might** be a season 3. I suspect it depends on Covid-19 as it's still ravashing Mexico.

Some rough psychos .

Never answer your door unless you know who it is !

People have to wake up and not trust strangers.

all this took place in England I guess. Poor Luther had to fight off not just criminals, psychos, etc. he had to fight off fellow officers. Made me so mad

LOL

I never knew what to think in regards to her. LOL

She saved his cookies a few times. She was in love with him, but, he knew deep down she wasn't all there.

Dang good actress, that chick !

I figured for TV they edited out most of the stuff. I bought the whole series from Amazon for like 25.

Showtime, etc. would have no trouble showing it , but, other channels would bleep half of it and drop a lot of the psycho scenes.
