Crematorio, a masterpiece tv series

Yesterday I watched the two first episodes of a Spanish tv series which excellent reputation, entitled "Crematorio". And I was truly blown away by its quality, to the point it reminded me of "The Wire" due to the realism and interest of the stories.

The core of the series is focused on the story of Rubén Bertoméu, a rich man who made fortune by using all kind of dirty methods in order to make business. But this, which is a fairly standard topic, is exploited in a talented manner, mixing personal relationships and crime affairs, all in a convincing way and far from moralities. Furthermore, the quality of interpretations is stunning, beginning with that of José Sancho (Rubén Bertoméu) and following with a top-notch team of actors.

All in all I am extremely pleased after starting with it, and I'm sure this is going to become another personal favourite, this time from my own country.
