Casa de Papel is SO GOOD!
I’m currently halfway through Ministerio del Tiempo, and am really enjoying it. I’m also halfway through Mar de Plastico, which is also really good, and stars Rodolfo Sancho.
TV shows that I’ve watched and enjoyed in the past: La Reina del Sur, Gran Hotel, El Internado, Fragiles, Isabel, Aqui no hay quien viva...
It’s true though that a lot of Spanish TV shows have really long episodes!

Tierra de Reyes
En ese mismo canal de youtube (Telemundo) hay varias telenovelas con subtítulos en inglés. Miré por encima algunas de las más recientes, pero no tenían subtítulos en español. Luego decidí mirar las telenovelas que publicaron por la misma época que la que te comenté en un principio y esas sí tienen subtítulos en español; así que te recomiendo probar con telenovelas que hayan subido alrededor de los años 2013 y 2014 . Por ejemplo:
Pasión prohibida
Dama y Obrero y La Impostora --> En estas dos telenovelas los subtítulos están invertidos: los que dicen inglés en realidad son los de español, y los que dicen español en realidad son los de inglés.
Gracias. Los veré a todos en algún momento...
Las telenovelas españolas son tan dramáticas

Thanks Stelle
Casa de papel is definately on my list to watch, I shall add Mar de Plastico.
I don't know if it's good or not that the shows are long, it hurts my head but it does allow me to get into a sort of Spanish "zone"

Te lo prometo que esta es la última vez que voy a molestarte
Hay un show que se llama Paquita Salas. Es una comedía y cada espisodio sólo dura 30 minutos. ¿Y quieres saber lo mejor? Hay sólo una temporada y tiene sólo 5 episodios !
Ojalá hubiera más shows de España disponibles para nosotros aquí en África. Pero esta mierda está siempre "region locked''

Re: Bex's Spanish log 2018. Chapter 2: Improbable ambitions
General weekly update (because I won't be near a computer tomorrow)...
Speaking: Still sticking to 1 hour on iTalki each week, I am not sure quite how I've managed to keep this going and not cancel all my lessons but I am really happy that I've kept to my weekly lessons so far this year.
Listening: Still listening to radio some mornings and at least 20 minutes (usually more) TV most evenings. Started watching El Ministerio del Tiempo and I have watched the first two episodes so far. I am working my way through the Michel Thomas advanced CD's and have listened to 3 this week, so only 2 two go, I am finding it very useful.
Reading: I am still only using Clozemaster at the moment but if I counted the sentences as Harry Potter books (6,600 sentences in HP1), I would have read 6 HP books this year already (37,000 sentences). Once I have finished the Advanced MT Cd's I am hoping to get back to L/R my Harry Potter 3 book, just because I want to finish it. Although Amazon has just given me 3 months free Kindle Unlimited so I may be a little distracted with that for the next 3 months...what shall I read first?
I am coming to the conclusion though that I prefer TV/Videos/films over reading and that films may actually be of more benefit to me anyway, I wanted to see if I could do the SC this year when it started and so I set myself my reading challenge to see if i could maintain the SC reading levels for a few months before it started but I just can't seem to get into the habit of reading books in Spanish but I have no problems incorporating Netflix into my day
Writing: Again using only Clozemaster at the moment (I always use text input not multiple choice) and so my writing is lagging behind but I am planning to get back to it when I have played the top 1,000 words on Clozemaster. I may start using any difficult Clozemaster vocabulary/grammar as writing prompts once I get to the 1,001-2,000 level. I have a lot of writing to catch up if I want to complete the output challenge.
Onward I plod...

Re: Bex's Spanish log 2018. Chapter 2: Improbable ambitions
Como dijiste que también estaría bien ver series para niños/jóvenes, te menciono algunas, por si les quieres echar un vistazo
Personalmente me gustan mucho las series que produce Cris Morena, de Argentina. Son tiras infanto-juveniles. Crecí viendo varias de sus series. La última que ha hecho se llama "Aliados" y la puedes ver aquí:
Aliados, temporada 1
Aliados, temporada 2
En el canal oficial de Telefe en Youtube puedes encontrar varias series argentinas. Entre ellas hay algunas más que fueron creadas por Cris Morena:
Chiquititas: temporada 1, temporada 2, temporada 3, temporada 4, temporada 5, temporada 6, temporada 8
Verano del 98
También recuerdo que me gustaba mucho ver esta serie, aunque no es de Cris Morena:
Cebollitas
Dos de mis series favoritas de Cris Morena son: "Casi Ángeles" y "Floricienta".
Además, recuerdo también haber disfrutado mucho algunas telenovelas infantiles mexicanas como: "Amigos x siempre" (amigos por siempre), "Carita de Ángel", "El diario de Daniela", "Cómplices al rescate", "Aventuras en el tiempo" y "El niño que vino del mar".
Otro clásico que nunca pasa de moda es "El chavo del ocho". Llevan décadas retransmitiéndolo.

Muchas gracias...hay algunas cosas geniales allí. Voy a explorar el mundo de la televisión muy pronto

I can't decide if I should join the SC or not?

Maybe you could do a 6 Week Challenge?
Well..I decided to try and do it...nothing to loose. Looking at the reading part of the SC it's actually less than I was aiming to do in 2018 anyway
