    Once again another amazing show from Netflix international. I wanted to binge watch this show just like (Winter Sun - Kis Günesi (TV Series 2016). These two shows are unlike anything I have seen. Amazing Acting, Amazing storyline. The cast well what can I say but superb acting, especially the two busy body little girls. I wish this was a series that had at least 15 years worth of seasons. I can watch and watch this show. Now I have to see if I can buy this on a DVD set or not. I couldn't find Winter Sun available but I would love to have these as a purchase. They are worth the watch and for me to have. I can't talk about the show, you should watch it.I love that this show as well as Winter Sun does not let you know what is about to happen. I like being kept in suspense. Writer, Producer and Director, Amazing work and the Award goes to you all. Thanks

    This series contains all the topics common in cheap horror movies, but they are so predictable that turn out to be more laughable than scary. Nothing new that one hasn't seen before. You can stop watching an episode for 10 minutes, come back and guess what happened during that time. It adds some elements to the underlying story: the tenderness for the orphan little girl, the teenagers' love conflicts, the adults betrayals, etc. All this with an underlying atmosphere of a "progressive education environment" for spoiled rich kids. And, you've got to be cute to be in these series! Avoid it.

    Netflix has decided for some unknown reason to take El Internado off the air. To be fair they did give me adequate warning, but on Friday I still went to watch it as usual of an afternoon and found that it had disappeared. Sigh. I feel bereft.Anyhow, in memory of this slyly addictive show, I will do a review in its honor. Now at the outset I must say that no one was more surprised than me that I was so hooked, but the fact remains that it was strangely well-written for such a ludicrous premise. That premise being that there is a boarding school (the eponymous El Internado de la Laguna Negra) somewhere in rural Spain which attracts the kids of that country's elite, but there are mysterious events afoot with an abundance of underground passages, missing children from the school's history as a former orphanage, and adults with plenty to hide.There is skulduggery, for lack of a better word, in every episode with breathtakingly foolish actions and impossible coincidences galore. However, to offset all this is the genuine chemistry among the cast and the almost constant thread of humor that lends the proceedings some lifesaving levity. At the center are the group of teenagers, the principal and teachers, the administrator Jacinta, and two staff members, Maria the cleaner and Fermin the cook.(We are to believe there is but one cleaner in a school of 400 students, but that is just one lapse to overlook because you are too addicted.)Full review at:http://devikamenon.blogspot.com/2016/07/watched-el- internado.html#more

    Nothing is as it seems at the school called "Laguna Negra". Mysteries, secret organizations, murders, love, passion, conflicts, need for justice, lies but most importantly the power of friendship and solidarity are the things that you will encounter if you watch "El Internado". With every new season we start to see a much bigger picture and conspiracy that reveals the true selves of each of the characters.I have watched all of the episodes of El Internado and I must say it is a show worth watching. It is quite thrilling and dramatic, even funny at the right moments. The characters and story lines are very well developed and the plot twists are sometimes so unexpected that the viewer is never left with "oh, this episode was a waste of time".The main story involves the lives of the sixteen-year-old Carolina, Ivan, Vicky, Julia, Roque and Marcos who accidentally start uncovering information about horrible crimes that have happened in the school years ago. Soon they find that their investigations endanger their lives but despite of their fear, they are too involved in the events to just return to their normal lives. The school staff also has an important role in the story, one that reveals itself in time. The waves of secrets do not miss the children in the show as well – Marcos's curious five-year-old sister Paula and her best friend Evelyn who are always in the middle of a mischief. It is always a joy to watch those two girls find themselves into trouble! My favorite actors from the series are Yon González who plays the arrogant and rebellious Ivan Noiret and Blanca Suárez (currently playing in the series "El Barco"), portraying the provocative and beautiful Julia Medina. The whole cast is incredible, though, and I hope to see more of them on screen.
