I was exited to watch the adaptation of Claudia Piñero's book. I loved the book, enjoyed reading about privileged life of the rich and demise of their souls behind their appearances.
But I could not finish the first episode. I do not understand how it became a pseudo-erotic drama and I could not stand the exaggerated performances from the actors.
I tried switching from the original spanish (my mother tongue) to another language; and although the dialog became less marred in "mexicanism" (the book is set in Argentina) the director's choices were unbearable.
The production design and some of the actors were good, that is why I am giving it 3/10. But I would avoid this aberration of a tv series.
