Narcos Mexico is mega boring compared to the Escobar one

[Dummy Gaynuts]

It just drags on and on with no payoff

 

[LingerLonger]

Narcos was also mediocre. Watch 'El Chapo' on Netflix if you have it.

The last season was a mess. They tried to jam a decade’s worth of events and make it seem like it happened over the course of a few months. That and I never found Scoot McNairy that interesting, or Michael Peña. No epilogue at the end explaining what happened to the various players; if you don’t know the true story, you’re just left to assume.

The problem is that a decent amount of the government officials/law enforcement are still in power in Mexico, so they really couldn't go into too much detail-- hence the stupid femicide angle that has really nothing to do with the story that took up way too much screen time.

I do remember them having to bleep out a few names, which is stupid for a tv show. If you can’t say the name, make one up. Not like they didn’t do that already. The Juarez femicides are an interesting story, but you’re right; no place in this show. At the end though, they could’ve mentioned certain characters fates (Rafa walking out of prison and being on the FBIs 10 most wanted list, the Tijuana sister escaping and still out there, etc). In the end though, all we get is Scoot talking to that Irish Rican from the Departed. Maybe they were afraid of getting another scout killed so they just wanted the show over with.

TLDR, I watch a lot of tv

Thought it was pretty good. I liked the whole Felix Gallardo arc. TV is gay and stupid in general though I suppose.

 

[Huh?]

I liked all the Narcos versions, but yes this last season was one of the weaker ones.

The flashback to when those two kids killed their maid fucking haunts me. I don't know why, I've seen some fucking gruesome stuff but the way her face went blank is burned onto my mind.
