  Atypical is back, and with it, Sam’s adventures. It is time for Sam to move forward, have his own place, and all the responsibilities that come with it. Is he ready? How will Sam face adult life challenges? Having a roommate Like many other young adults, Sam is moving with a roommate. Who could be better for this job than his best friend, Zahid?  Things aren’t easy. They do everything for each other but living under the same roof is something else. It requires adaptation. What’s my path? Sam faces, as we all do, the inevitable choice of the path to take. What am I good at? What’s the path I should follow? What’s the right choice? Those questions are tough to answer, but Sam is fortunate. He knows what he wants. The problem is: how to achieve it? I especially like that perspective because it’s so realistic. It is hard to find out what you want and need, and once you know it… What’s the next step? Nothing is given to Sam, and he teaches us a good lesson: how to fight for your...

  Shaun Murphy is an autistic doctor trying to become a surgeon and gain his place in the medical career. He comes from a complicated background of tragedy and a troubled family. Shaun is not alone, though. He has the help of Dr. Glassman, who met him when he was very young and has tried to help him ever since. This is a good show about autism, but it is more than just a show about autism. Connection  Connecting with other people is essential. It is a vital need we have as human beings, but we need to try hard to truly connect.  Communication seems to be the key to that connection, but it is hard - for everybody. Shaun may lack some important social skills, but throughout the show, we see that everyone, at some point, has difficulties in communicating and connecting. Despite being one more medical show, The Good Doctor is different. It is more focused on Shaun’s social learning than on the medical cases. It is refreshing because of that. You can do (almost) everything...

  Alert: the following text contains spoilers! Elite presented us a fourth season as addictive as always (check reviews for previous seasons here and here ). The way each season is built, making you know what happened, and looking back to find out how you got that result is a formula that works year after year. After the last season, where most characters graduated, things changed a bit in Las Encinas . I loved the new characters and the dynamic they brought to the school. Yet, even though the formula works (after all, we’re still watching), after four seasons, it starts to get a bit too much “bad luck”, don’t you think? More tragedy? More death? In a high school? What was an interesting crime show is becoming repetitive and unrealistic. New protagonists We still follow the older students’ lives in this season, but the new characters quickly assume themselves as protagonists. I would say Mencía and her accidental entrance into the world of prostitution is the great protagonist of...
