Remake of "Los simuladores" (2002)

Other series made in Spain should be ashamed

It's so well done, so well acted, directed, photographed, naturally decorated, that ALL other series made in Spain suddenly become worse to the viewer's eye.

Shot in 14:9, the series shows the work of a peaceful A-Teamesque group that solves all kind of problems by making simulations. The four members investigate, plan, get props and act to create fake situations that turn around the oppression caused to their clients by changing the point of view of these oppressors in the most unexpected and better clock-working way.

Fun to watch, intriguing and great in concept, this remake of the Argentinian hit with the same name is by far on the top of the Spanis TV fiction as of today.
