Narcos

[save lilo!]

I saw half of the first season in 2 nights. I can't wait to go home and watch the rest! Is anyone else watching?

I watched it a while ago. I really enjoyed it and I can't wait for season 2.

I'm bringing this up again -- did nobody else watch the show?

Binging on Season 3 currently. I am loving the Cali cartel and I'm glad the show went in this direction without Murphy.

Oh yes, binge watched Season 3 in a week - we paced it 2 episodes a day to stretch it out a bit. It has a slower pace to the first 2 seasons, but then again the Cali cartel was hellbent to show themselves as a bit more 'refined' then Escobar and his cronies.

I really like the format of this show. I wonder if there will be a 4th?
I'm not sure they can be more entertaining than Miguel and Pacho.
Also I feel kind of dirty whenever I watch Javier.

I started watching this night before last based on this thread. I usually work on my embroidery while I'm watching, which involves a lot of looking up and down. There was a *lot* going on as they were setting up the action for the series, plus subtitles, and it was too much for needlework viewing so I stopped it. I will return to it when I can focus. (I'm trying to get a big piece finished so all tv time=embroidery time right now).

It looks good though--I'm intrigued. And because I was missing things left and right from the very beginning--is the narrator is S1 a Fed who's corrupt or a paid informer? I was having a hard time following, which is why I want to start when I can focus.

Narrator is Agent Murphy and he’s DEA. No not corrupt.

Well, from the way the ended it, there may indeed be a 4th, focused on the Mexican cartels.

I do remember a while ago a news bulletin where a location scout for Narcos was killed in Mexico, so they are probably busy with (pre-)production for the 4th season as we speak.
