Belen Prieto Espinof 4d
The series uses a very recognizable formula of social climbing and family drama, but it works because it takes the time to build the bond between its main characters. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Christopher Stevens Daily Mail (UK) Jul 28

Buddy T @RT96310399 Jul 1 This show is incredibly boring because you can predict every single plot point from the very first minute. It is completely unchallenging. You know right away that Liza will end up with Callum and that Blackwood is a fraud. The show telegraphs Harry’s storyline with his tutor the second they look at each other, purely to tick a modern diversity box. They ruin potentially cool storylines just to focus on cheap, back-to-back soap opera tropes. A total waste of potential. See more Read all reviews
