Interesting premise ruined by terrible plotting and soap opera logic. Every character is coincidentally related to each other in ways that strains credulity to the breaking point. This wouldn't be a problem in a story with a small setting but this show is set in an expansive world of a Spain that's reverted to fascism. That is very meaningful to a Spanish audience but for outsiders it's not enough. Every time I get back into the show, because a lot of it is very well done, it does something so ridiculous that I walk away from it again.
