[quote]I also want to say that the shooting for season 5 is almost done[/quote] They finished about a couple of weeks ago. On that note, couldn’t sleep well and ended up watching it early this morning. I finished at 8:00AM and hell what a ride! Loved the season. Hoping I don’t have to wait...

My wife is from Venezuela and hates this term. None of our Latino friends like it or use it at all. My wife even corrected two of my friends telling them that LatinX is not a real thing and is a distraction from the real problems going on in the Latin American community and to stop using the term ...
[quote]Haven’t watched it in 20 years. Really wish it was on Netflix[/quote] I watched it on Prime (via IMDB with ads) over New Year for free after finishing season 3. I don’t know if that’s still an option, but I’d check it out. ...

I know Gerard Pique in Spain is often booed whenever he plays with the Spanish national team as he is pro-Catalan independence. Also, people in Spain (namely the Catalans and Basques) tend to whistle (their equivalent of booing) when they play the Spanish National Anthem before the Copa Del Rey fina...
Just finished the season. Wow. I’m pumped for season 5. Maybe it’s just me, but the amount of corruption shown in this season makes the Colombians look more ethical. ...

One of my favorites for sure. I'm really going to miss his show and his storytelling ability. As many on here have already said, he had my dream job. I don't know if this has been mentioned, but Parts Unknown is leaving Netflix on June 16th for those who want to watch....

Thanks for this. In the middle of my rewatch for the first time in probably 10 years. This is such a great movie. :cheers:...

I learned Spanish while I studied abroad in Spain and Argentina. While living in Argentina, I lived a bunch of Brazilians. I learned Portuguese from them. I spent a year in France for work, so I learned French there. While in Spain, I made plenty of friends from Catalonia. So I picked up on C...

re: Is Rosetta Stone a scam?

DuoLingo is the way to go. It's free too, so that will save you a decent amount of money. I tried to learn Tagalog on the Rosetta Stone years ago. After a while, I decided to try what I learned with my mom. My mom said I sounded too formal and that no one would say that. I speak Spanish and Fren...

re: Narcos season 3

Posted by TNVolinSpain on 10/26/17 at 8:45 am
At first I thought it was my least favorite of all three seasons, but after a rewatch, I think I may like it more than the first two. I thought the acting was good too. It had way better pacing than the second season. The Jorge storyline also kept me intrigued. I just read At the Devil's Table, whic...
After watching this season, I went out and bought a book about Jorge Salcedo, called At The Devil’s Table. It’s about his time with the Cali Cartel and joining the DEA. I’m a few chapters in and an excellent read for anyone who wants more insight into the season....
:lol: that was gold. I would probably pay to see it too....
Just finished the other day. The quality didn't drop with the fall of Pablo. Awesome season. I felt like Jorge really added an extra dynamic to this season. I think my only grip is they went straight to the end of the Cali Cartel. There was definitely some time between the fall of Escobar and the fa...
