Script:

The Wire shows a realistic vision about Baltimore’s life, specially focus on drug trafficking. A lot of its characters have been based on real persons of Baltimore in USA. Few secondary actors are amateurs who perform their own character in the real life because they considerer that the story is so real that they want to participate in it.

The central subject in the development of series is the use of electronic vigilance technologies for Police, thanks to it its title The Wire (La Escucha in Spanish). This technologies appear reflected in both faces of Law, in a way systems and techniques used for criminals to avoid vigilance and in the other way systems used by Police.

Series starts with the links between two apparently opposite worlds and develops gradually strong cross between situations and characters of the two antagonist faces of society. Good and Evil faces of world are together because they need theirs to exist. To be in a face or in the other face of the line is often a perspective thing.

Opinion:

I think this series is fantastic. In my opinion, "Two and a Half Men"is a comic series that involves, although the series is predictable and without grace monent. Sometimes I wait to advertising break to get up off the Sofa.

Penny is messy and disorganized, but appears to like it that way. After several relationships with tall, handsome but few intelligent, just having a relationship with Leonard. is always harassed by Howard. Although is very different from the boys is learning to live with the geeks they are.

The recommendation:

- Hello friends! I just want to recommend the series that I liked The big bang theory, because to talk about new sitcoms, it seems that new chapters will be front and center of the girls and even the girlfriend of Wolowitz render him independent.

Over the chapters I check that Sheldon and Amy are the most stable couple in the series because maintained a curious relationship with Skype.
With respect to the argument of the girls, it seems that Amy, Penny and Bernadette will be front and center from now on. The girls are forming a very strong bond, but Penny is still feeling the ugly duckling because her new friends are scientists.
So women feel like Penny Rarita the group. In addition, Amy Farrah Fowler believes that she and Penny are best friends, Let's see what will happen.

In the second part, Wolowitz have to make a big decision: choosing whether it is to live with his mother and moves in with his girlfriend. Lorre says that if Wolowitz still living with his mother will not be easy to maintain a relationship. Prady says Bernadette is going to set foot on earth and it will force a choice. Although never completely lose the insults and quarrels of Howard with his mother.
It will give a lot to say this series!

PLOT
This series is one of the most famous Spanish series. It shows the Spanish history while it tells the story of a humble family called “Alcántara”. Cuéntame is based on the American series called “The Wonder Years”, which shares a lot of points in common with Cuéntame. For example, in both series is there a character who tells the story in the form of a voice in off, in the context of a lot of years after. In the case of “Cuéntame”, the narrator is the youngest son, Carlos. The name of the series is based on a very popular song of the seventies, singed by Ana Belen (In fact, it is the song which sounds in the opening of the series). The plot starts in 1968, in the last years of the Franco’s dictatorship, and in this moment is telling the transition to democrazy.

I recommend this series because is very funny, and you can see in it some of the best Spanish actors, like Imanol Arias, Juan Echanove or Tony Leblanc. In my opinion, each period of time has his own personality and essence, and Cuéntame is able to show perfectly each essence of each period of time in our history.

SUMMARY

The series was created in 1987 and was on the TV until 1995. ABC American channel was the first TV to transmit it. In Spain it started on the old Canal + Channel and it was called “Padres Forzosos”.

It was a series made in San Francisco California. You can always see the Golden Gate Bridge and the famous trams at the begining of each part. The duration of each part was about 25 minutes.

The series is about one typical American family with the mother, father and 3 little girls. The mother died in an accident and the father had to look after his children alone. The father needed the help of his brother-in-law, who was a rock musician, to live with them to help him with the children. Later he had met a girl and married Her. She already had twins boys. One of the little girls in the series is the Famous Olsen Twins.

Our opinion is that it was a very positive series with no sex, no violence and perhaps a help for people in the same situation. It showed you how a family can recuperate under difficult circunstances. We really liked this series as it remainded us of our infancy.
