Narcos (Netflix series)

"Narcos is an American crime drama television series that debuted on August 28, 2015, on Netflix. The series was created by Chris Brancato, Carlo Bernard and Doug Miro, and directed by Brazilian filmmaker José Padilha. It is a serialized take on drug kingpin Pablo Escobar (played by Wagner Moura) and the Medellín Cartel.The first season consists of 10 episodes. The series was renewed for a second season on September 3, 2015."

Saw this a couple of days ago.
Certainly not bad but I just expected more.
Especially about Escobar's early years. And now that they're gonna do a second season I fear they're gonna milk it a little.
But like I said, it's certainly not bad and quite informative if you don't know a lot about Pablo Escobar.
Another better than average Netflix series and overal worth a watch imo.

Anyone see this in the meantime?
Season 2 was less good as expected.
Season 3 might be more interesting.

Fun fact: the actor who plays Escobar plays the head of an anti-drugs squad in Tropa De Elite.

I enjoyed both seasons although I agree 2 was not as good as the first.

I read Escobars son had some serious issues with historical accuracy but as entertainment goes its well worth checking out.

High hopes for seasons 3 and 4 as they expand out the storylines
