Griselda on Netflix - Anyone watching?

[Netaporter]

Only on ep 2 as having to watch at DH pace not mine 😭

a bit like Narcos, absolutely abhor the drug trade but you couldn’t help but love Pablo a little bit. Same with Griselda. Sofia Vergara looks astonishingly different with a set of teeth and a lower forehead line. Brilliant actress.

I am so glad I have watched it. I love Sofia Vergara, so talented and beautiful

@Newgreendress i might watch ahead and pretend to DH I haven’t 😂

Me! It's really good.

We finished the first two episodes but really struggle with the subtitles, especially as they come and go. Does it carry on like that for the rest of the series?

Can't make up my mind whether I like it or not. Love Dario though. Mmmmm

On episode 4 like her outfits but don’t buy into this female Scarface storyline and she’s a bad ass etc - wondering if if gets better ?

She's not that much of a badass. Just gets the fella's to do her dirty work for her. She shot that one bloke bit it was more a case of having to in order to keep up the badass image.

I've just finished and then I Googled the real Griselda. I reckon she was a psychopath.

For sure had a chance to make an honest living but liked the thrill of the drug trade .. bit bored of it

Omg!! On episode 3, am officially hooked.🤭🤭🤭

On episode 5 and can honestly say I hate Griselda now. She had some redeeming qualities at the start but she totally lost it now. Just so long as they don't kill off her husband I'll be happy.

I thought he was killed off in ep 1 ?

same here not being a mother to kids but prostituting herself about ( great example ) lol

Sofia ( Viagra ) lol does look amazing though was looking at her boobs and they are perfect !! Are they real ???

first husband was killed off on episode 1, PP is talking about the lovely second husband. (Dario)
Yes her boobs are very watchable and the stunning wardrobe really enhanced them.
I also stopped liking her, she was a psychopath, a terrible mother and a shitty human towards the end.

A great series, I really enjoyed it. I also enjoyed reading about her in real life.

Yes I'm talking about the gorgeous Dario. Swooooooon!

An OK watch but factually inaccurate. The real Griselda was evil personified and a full on sociopath. She's portrayed sympathetically.

It’s brilliant! Love it.

@Sumthingsweet I’m sure I read she has had a reduction, not sure!

Oh really still big enough lol I’ve given up on it

Have just finished episode 4! Unbelievable 😍

Finished it all. Loved it.

I've just finished it and absolutely loved it.

Agree though re: subtitles being small and disappearing a little too quickly (and annoying when they were white on a very pale background so couldn't read). I used to live in Spain so sometimes I could just listen. Thought Sofia Vergara was incredible, though the prosthetic nose and teeth were really distracting at first. Not entirely sure they were necessary.

I loved the styling and cinematography. Agree some things were inaccurate (just about to Google Griselda Blanco as didn't want any spoilers). Things like Dario's birthday cake being a 'drip cake' style with a diamante wrap around it...hmm...not sure they were around in the 70's?

I do tend to enjoy things based on history though, with interesting characters, shocks, drama, violence etc so it was right up my street.

Oh, and HOW many cigarettes were smoked in the making of that series?!

It's a fascinating watch and you can see how power took away any redeeming features. Curiously she actually becomes uglier too. Mind you, Sofia Vergara is nothing like the real Griselda who was only 5 foot tall.

Enjoying it, just watched 4.

The photos of the real Griselda, show a woman nothing like sexy Sofia , whose outfits are incredible.
