Spanish series have become a phenomenon that knows no borders.
And, in addition, they also manage to be "prophets in their land", as evidenced by
their constant presence in the top of the most viewed platforms
and companies in charge of calculating audiences.
These are the most demanded national series of the moment.
The Paper House (Netflix)
It is probably the most international Spanish production in history.
Even
Madonna
declares herself a follower of it, as
Úrsula Corberó
detailed in
Jimmy Fallon
's
late night
, nothing more and nothing less.
The series created by
Álex Pina
, inspired by the actions of the legendary bank robber
Willie Sutton
and
with the National Currency and Stamp Factory and the Bank of Spain as main targets, he has turned red work overalls,
Dalí's mask,
the anti-fascist Italian song
Bella ciao
, and characters such as The Professor (
Álvaro Morte
) into modern icons.
In total there are 41 episodes spread over five seasons.
El Cid (Amazon Prime Video)
Little by little, the most ambitious production of Amazon Prime Video in Spain is consolidated in the taste of viewers.
His landing was noisy, as explained by
Jaime Llorente
, the actor chosen to play
Cid Campeador
.
"Even before leaving, people are giving fire to Twitter," he said in this newspaper in reference to the polarization caused by the figure of the military leader.
After a first season in which
Rodrigo Díaz de Vivar
assumes that the death of
Fernando I El Grande
will be a political earthquake, the second shows as
Sancho
,
Alfonso
and
García
they become the kings of Castile, Leon and Galicia.
And, by the way, the Iberian Peninsula becomes a battlefield in which the Cid will have to sacrifice everything he loves to achieve what his father could not.
Amazon Prime Video subscription is available here.
Homeland (HBO Max)
Two years after its premiere, the series based on the book by
Fernando Aramburu
continues to add viewers.
Just as the novel did, Aitor Gabilondo
's fiction
shows the pain caused by the terrorist group ETA addressing different points of view but without ignoring the pain, and even the ability to forgive, with two actresses,
Elena Irureta
and
Ana Gabarain
, embroidering their roles as mothers Bittori and Miren, respectively.

Poison (Atresplayer Premium)
The actress
Isabel Torres
, one of the protagonists of Veneno, passed away on February 11.
The media impact of her death is a good example of the importance of the story of La Veneno, the most famous transsexual in Spain, narrated by
Javier Calvo
and
Javier Ambrossi
,
Los Javis
.
That any American home can immerse itself in the misadventures of
Cristina Díaz
, with her journey through the Mississippi of
Pepe Navarro
and her runaway life, is one more example of how it has become one of the most valued series of recent years.
The Town (Amazon Prime Video)
With the success of
Here there is no one who lives
and
What is coming
behind their backs,
Alberto Caballero
created, together with
Julián Sastre
and
Nando Abad
, a comedy that deals with the misadventures of a group of urbanites who decide to leave everything behind and move to a fictional town of Soria called Peñafria.
Apparently abandoned, they soon discover that the town does have inhabitants.
The production has recently released its third season, in which the risk of a new depopulation that will try to be reversed with the creation of a rural hotel.
Santi Millán
,
Carlos Areces
or
Ingrid Rubio
are some of the many familiar faces of a dedicated and choral cast.
Amazon Prime Video subscription is available here.
Toy Boy (Netflix)
Produced by Plano a Plano for Atresmedia, it is on Netflix where it sweeps nationally and internationally.
Starring
Jesús Mosquera
,
Cristina Castaño
and
María Pedraza
, it is usually
always accompanied by the sanbenito of "guilty pleasure" for its starting point: some muscular gogós from the Costa del Sol that go out dancing by episode.
But, little by little, the plot picks up speed, with new additions (the case of
Álex González
and
Maxi Iglesias
) and a mixture of murders, debts, jail, sex and betrayal that increasingly catches the public.
