5 AMAZING Spanish Shows to Watch if You’re learning Spanish
One of the best ways to learn a new language is to watch videos. You can see and hear how native speakers speak the language and also observe their mannerisms.
Personally, I love to copy how they say it, and play with my non-existent accent. Hahaha.
So here are my personal favorite shows to watch while learning Spanish.
Siempre Bruja
Siempre Bruja is a Colombian Series. It is about a 19-year-old slave and a witch from 1646 named Carmen. She was about to be burned at the stake and was saved by an old wizard through time travel. She starts a new life and she tries to navigate her way thru modern-day Colombia.
Control Z
Control Z is about a hacker that begins releasing students’ secrets to the entire high school, the socially isolated but observant Sofía works to uncover the hacker’s true identity.
Narcos
Narcos is about the infamous journey of Pablo Escobar, from his humble beginnings in rural Colombia to global drug kingpin of the late ’80s. It shows the times about drug trade in Latin America, the corruption and politics surrounding it, and the way American authorities became involved at the dawn of the so-called ‘war on drugs’.
Seasons 1, 2 & 3 deal with Escobar and the Cali Cartel (that took over from Escobar), while season 4 takes a look at Miguel Felix Gallardo, Mexico’s answer to Escobar.
Elite
The story begins when three Spanish students from a working-class background are awarded scholarships to Spain’s most elite private school, a lot of things happened. Including forbidden romance, clashes between the wealthy and working-class students, and even a murder case.
La Casa de Papel
La Casa de Papel is about a man and eight people who planned the biggest heist in recorded history — to print billions of euros in the Royal Mint of Spain. The group of thieves takes hostages to help them with their negotiations with the authorities, who strategize to come up with a way to capture The Professor.
I would love to watch more shows. Please comment below and share your favorite Spanish shows with me!

I only watched Narcos among these Spanish movies. Maybe because I read about Pablo Escobar and I would love to see how his character would be portrayed in the film. Anyway, I also did the same when I was still learning French. I downloaded a lot of French movies for me to binge-watch. Great recommendations of the films though. Would take some time to watch them…

I have to say these are actually really good shows to watch… and I guess I missed the opportunity of learning Spanish when I chose to watch it in English. 😀

I used to self-study the Spanish language when I was in college. But I think I was not able to pursue it due to my busy schedules taking up Computer Engineering. I love to learn new languages. I also tried to learn Japanese with no success. I guess I am stuck with learning the language because I have no one to talk to. I am pursuing now to review the Korean language because I have Korean friends. But they are also busy in Korea now. I also wanted to memorize Baybayin. I am addict to learning new culture.
