Has anyone been watching this? It premiered on Friday on Netflix with all episodes of Season 1 being put out at once. It is in Spanish, but the dub is really good and doesn't detract from the stories at all. It's like Riverdale meets Waterloo Road and definitely worth a watch.

It focuses on an upper class school and 3 new students that obtain a scholarship following their school's collapse.
It deals with class, religion, drugs, LGBT issues, relationships etc. It's very topical.

Saw episode 1 and it's crazy how few actors they have in Spain oops. I mean half of the La Casa de Papel cast is there~

Looks interesting so far and the Riverdale comparison is spot on!

I was gonna watch it with the English dub but found it annoying that the English wouldn't match what their mouths were saying. So I watched in Spanish with English subtitles.

I watched the English dub actually, after a while didn’t even notice it all! The only voice dub I didn’t like was Christian’s as it just didn’t suit.

Original language ALWAYS. I watched enough lazy dubbed movies and series for 100 lifetimes growing up.

Just started t his and it's great, Riverdale WISHES. It has some of that soapy drama but it's more like Skam/Skins as well for me in that it's touching on real issues such as race and sexuality and doing it really well without losing it to storyline twists and turns (yet).

Think this will go down as my favourite show of the year, watched it over about a week and was obsessed. Can't wait for the second season

I loved this, thought it was fantastic. I'm deaf so I just took my hearing aids out and watched it with English subtitles, didn't detract at all. Loved all the twists and turns.

Watching with English subs IS the thing to do with this. The dub is absolutely appalling.

SO hyped for S2. The first season was SUCH trashy fun *_*
