El Ministerio del Tiempo 3×03 Review: Time of Spells
One of the most interesting aspects of El Ministerio del Tiempo is how it allows us to learn more about well-known figures. We know the names, their main works, but this show teaches us about their lives. Continue reading
El Ministerio del Tiempo 3×02 Review: Time of Spies
I am a sucker for stories set in the World Wars, and there is something alluring about time travel shows or films that visit this period. Should something be changed? Would that alter the course of events? Should we kill Hitler? Continue reading
El Ministerio del Tiempo 3×01 Review: Time by Northwest
It might be hard to believe, but after a year of arduous negotiations, El Ministerio del Tiempo is finally back to our small screens! It comes with some casualties (Rodolfo Sancho, The Ministry’s Files), but let’s just be thankful it’s back, and we can complain about the rest afterwards. Continue reading
El Ministerio Will Open Its Doors Again!
Just a quick post to let you all know that, after months of speculations, it is official: El Ministerio del Tiempo has been renewed for a third season! History has its eyes on… well, Spanish history!! Continue reading
El Ministerio del Tiempo 2×13 Review: Change of Time

El Ministerio del Tiempo 2×12 Review: Till Time Do Us Part
Who doesn’t love weddings? Everyone is happy, people get drunk, some more than others embarrass themselves in front of the guests, and 13th century knights arrive looking for their bride willing to kill everyone on their way. Weddings, am I right? Continue reading
El Ministerio del Tiempo 2×11 Review: Time of the Occult
It’s been a while since we had an episode of pure comedy (the one with Napoleon and the monastery), but this time, El Ministerio del Tiempo has given us another jewel. Continue reading
El Ministerio del Tiempo 2×10 Review: Separated by Time
Oh, don’t I love it when parallel stories converge. On this occasion, El Ministerio del Tiempo gave us three stories that ended up having something in common: Las Sinsombrero (the women from the Generation of ’27), the stolen children in the 1980s, and the vampire of the Raval. Continue reading
El Ministerio del Tiempo 2×09 Review: Oil on Time
El Ministerio del Tiempo has always dealt with how you’re not supposed to go back in time to save someone you love (something that both Julián and Pacino blatantly ignored), but what if what you want to save is a bunch of paintings? That was the main theme of ‘Oil on Time’. That, and some of the best lines of dialogue of the season. This episode was what you’d get if Dangerous Liaisons met Mission Impossible. Continue reading
