Where do I begin? Where. Do. I. Begin. Like this episode, I might as well start at the end, with Salvador resigning from his post. People leave, they start new adventures. Some get their sons back. Others remain, waiting until old age to reunite with their partner. And others retire because they turn 80 in three months and, honestly, they deserve a break if they bloody want to. Continue reading
It is always impossible to pick just one episode out of a whole series, but if I had to choose just one, I might say one from season 2 where the team meets Napoleon in a monastery. Granted, I love many other episodes (Felipe II, Lorca, Lope, Groundhog Day with Isabel I, Cervantes…) but I don’t think I ever laughed as hard as I did with the monastery.

For those of you who expected to find out last week more about Eulogio’s dream and whether or not that had made his memories return… Sorry! But there is way too much going on to spend time on a sedated man who still has dreams about Lorca and a girl running. Continue reading
November 1st, 2017. That was the last time Pacino and Alonso saw each other. And that was the last time El Ministerio del Tiempo blessed our screens with its presence. It has been forever, but now it’s back, in grand style, and it doesn’t waste a minute! Continue reading
No act comes without consequences, and after the alleged death (because we all knew that wasn’t a real death) of Irene’s mentor, chaos was certainly coming our way. Continue reading
