It's dubbed into English.

It's teh most expensive cinematic production ever undertaken in South America. They build the entire village (Macondo) for the series.


Dear god. Just watch in Spanish with English subtitles.


not all of us sit and watch TV. I am working in my home office when I watch, especially contemporary junk, which is just about everything on Netflix. But continue to judgmental and a jerk

Both my DH and I read it one hundred years ago when we were teenagers but both of us thought the show was easier to follow. I don’t think you need the chart.


Thanks! We will start soon!

It's considered "mystical fiction". It's a long one, but good. The author won the Nobel prize for literature.
