Is it for you?

Who'll love it: Made for crime-drama fans and anyone who likes to be kept guessing. If you loved Riverdale or Pretty Little Liars, start here. Critics rate it higher than audiences do, so it rewards patience more than it chases thrills.
The mood: Tense, dark and gritty.
The pace: 8 seasons and 64 episodes: a long-haul commitment.
What might put you off: Rated TV-MA: expect violence.
A big time investment at 8 seasons.
It's in Spanish, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
Audiences were cooler on it than critics.

When three working class kids enroll in the most exclusive school in Spain, the clash between the wealthy and the poor students leads to tragedy.
