A sort-of spin-off of Narcos, this somehow doesn't have the same pace or intrigue. Yes, Sophia Vergara - looking very, very different from when I last saw her - turns in a committed performance; but Griselda isn't as appealing a character as Escobar, who at least enjoyed his ill-gotten gains, importing hippos and stuff. In fact she's a bit of a drag. They lean quite heavily on the fact that she's a lady, as if that makes the things she does not only understandable but laudable, and almost as if that in itself gives sufficient interest to the show (and of course her opposite number in the police has to be a lady too). Also, it's key with this type of show that you have to throw the viewer a bone sometimes, give them the catharsis of a good ol' gun battle; but this keeps the violence largely out of sight. Much cheaper that way.
