First two seasons were great. If you enjoy the genere, just watch them.
In the third one, the narrator's voice is simply out of place. The journalist's storyline to which the voice belongs is also ludicrous and forced - another twenty something year old explaining the injustices of the world.
Nobody needed another one of those.
Very poor choice.

Very poor choice.
Engaging and at times thought provoking amid all the gunfire.
I loved the look and feel of the series, the trashy culture and over the top lifestyles. I appreciated the artful use of swearing and the intro montage - a clever trail of cocaine powder on a map outlining the path of cocaine through Mexico. The music is inspired--including the insipid pop songs that accompanies some of the mayhem. You gotta love the track suits that some of the drug lords sport. The acting is top-notch and the grainy footage reminds us the story is vaguely based on real events.
Brings back some of the great pace, acting and dialogue that made the original Narcos so great
I have to say that I really enjoyed Narcos: Mexico almost as much as the original. While not quite as good as the original Narcos, it's still a pretty good show that's definitely worth watching! It's about the rise of the Guadalajara cartel and the DEA chasing them and even helping in some cases. The writing and acting in this series is as good as any show you'll find in cartels. I was skeptical at first because Narcos was so good but was pleasantly surprised at how well this turned out too. It continues the story about the drug cartels and does such an amazing job at it. It's addicting once you start watching and even though like half of it is in Spanish, you'll get used to the subtitles pretty quick. I would recommend this to anyone who's interested in how the cartels work and what it takes to be at the top of the drug world.
If we say that this series is addictive like drugs, we don't say wrong. I'd say it's really compatible with the name of the show. It is very enjoyable to watch such a drug war in Mexico after Colombia. No one from the old cast. We see a new battle with a completely new cast. I think the idea of adapting the same issue to another country is good. After beginning with Pablo Escobar in Colombia, "Narcos" shifted to the Cali cartel, an equally colorful and bloodthirsty bunch. Now we see the Mexican drug lord Miguel Angel Felix Gallardo. Also named as El Padrino, Felix Gallardo is a citizen of El Chapo. Both of them are from Culiacan. Though the episodes are lengthy, it's a absorbing story. Historically we may know the outcome but Narcos: Mexico has an interesting story. Definitely worth watching. 9/10
