'Money Heist' Has Broken All Records At Netflix So Here Are 5 Reasons Why You Must Watch It

In This Article:

On July 19th, Netflix will release the new season of "Money Heist." If you already watched this amazing Spanish TV show, this article might be boring. In the case you have not watched the show yet, you must start with the first season right now.

"Money Heist" is about a big robbery. It is a crime-suspense TV show, but I promise you it will blow your mind. When you think you know what it is going to happen, the show surprises you. "Money Heist" has a funny anecdote. This show was made and broadcast in Spanish. However, the show was not successful. Actually, some of its cast members were unemployed when Netflix bought it.

Netflix made some changes to the show. For example, they created two seasons instead of one; they re-edited the episodes to make them 45-50 minutes long. And, it was a completed success. It is the non-English speaking Netflix show with the most views in history, and it won an International Emmy Award as Best Drama Series. So, all these actors who did not have a job, now are celebrities around the world.

Here are my five reasons why you must watch "Money Heist."

1.    Suspense.

I am not going to spoil the show, but the plot is about a group of criminals who want to commit the biggest robbery of history. As you see since the beginning, each step of this theft was perfectly planned. The leading resource of the screenwriters is to have the audience in constant suspense. I promise you won't be able to watch just one episode at a time; you will need more.

2.    Characters.

It is funny, but we do not know the real names of our principal character until the second half of the show. We only know cities: Tokyo, Nairobi, Moscow, Berlin, Rio, Denver or Oslo. Also, the most important character, the brain of this mission is only "The Professor." That idea is fantastic because all of them have a halo of mystery.

The secondary characters are as good as the principals. This show is full of good stories and good actors who make us live this experience as if it were ours.

3.    Creativity.

I am a big fan of new ideas. As a writer, when I see creativity, I always feel happy. "Money Heist" is proof that we can make new productions. We have heard that we are living the golden time of TV and this era is not only in the US, but it is also happening around the world. The screenplay, costumes, the plot, the dialog, all is new on TV.

4.    Celebrating Spanish production.

It is not the first time I have talked about Spanish productions. I consume a lot of Spanish TV and movies. They have a lot of good shows, but "Money Heist" is one of the best (maybe, we can say the best). This show gives you the chance to know Spain better and you will see Salvador Dali with other eyes.

5.    New adventures.

As I said at the beginning, the show was made to finish in the second season, but the impact success it had was enough to write a new group of episodes. It is a challenge because the story was entirely closed; then, we want to know what the argument is to open the story again and if this new chapter will be as good as the first one. I only pray for "Money Heist's" third season to be better than the third season of "Stranger Things."

Now you only have to watch this TV show. If it is your first time, you can start today. If you know the story already, we must wait until July 19.

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

pizza
Fandango

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.

1. You don't have to feel guilty about flirting with customers for tips (or just for shits and giggles).

2. You can be obnoxiously flirtatious with anyone you want. You are free to be that girl that flirts with everybody and makes 'em all smile (it's especially fun when the guy is as cute as Collin Jost). No shame.

3. Making random men nervous with your superior beauty and intense eye contact just for the hell of it is really amusing and empowering.

4. No one gives two poops if ya legs are hairy (your man shouldn't either but *Kermit the Frog meme* That's none of my business)

5. The toilet seat will remain down.

6. There's more money to spend on yourself.

7. There's always this secret butterfly in your tummy that marvels at the possibility that when you go out this weekend you're gonna meet someone super handsome/wonderful/prince-like and have this moment of dazzling dalliance.

8. Nothing is that serious...you can take it all with a grain of salt...you don't owe anybody anything.

9. You can dance with anyone and everyone...or no one (Hello frat boi w/ glasses, I see you).

10. You don't have to fluff anyone's ego but your own.

11. Free drinks and dinners from single guys (It's not taking advantage if they're offering; a girl's gotta eat).

12. You have more time to learn how to love and improve yourself rather than constantly pouring your energy into another person.

13. You don't have to sacrifice your cheesy Jen Aniston rom-coms and Gilmore Girls for his Fast and Furious/other dumb action movie featuring blonde that is only in the movie to supply a relationship to the male lead and to make him look more masculine/empowered in juxtaposition (In other words, you don't have to deal with a guy being a crabby Patty while you watch your cute movies).

14. You can daydream about what your future husband may be doing right now (and not get stressed/guilty out because you're not picturing your current boyfriend that's crazy about you as your future husband).

15. There is more time to be spent with your girlfriends.

Girls Night In
Milk + Blush

We've all been there - you've been saying since Tuesday after French that this weekend is the weekend. You're finally going to break out those new heels and actually put on eyeliner on and make this Friday night be one for the memory books! That is, of course, until Girls Night Out turned into...Girls Night In.
