Paratiisi

I was so pleased to see this series back for a second season, which I have just finished watching. All the old characters were back and a completely new storyline.

Fortunately, I was watching a version subtitled into English for all three languages used. On the face of things, it seemed an odd combination to have Finland and Spain in the same series yet it worked. But the Costa del Sol is teeming with Finns - three Finnish friends of mine have holiday homes there. We got a glimpse into this community during the two seasons.

Both storylines hooked me in. This was a series to be consumed at a pace to find out what would happen next. And the tension was unbearable sometimes. We knew that one of the main characters was going to be shot at some point but the lead up to it was pretty unbearable. It's a huge cliffhanger, of course. So we are looking forward to season three. I can't wait.

I am English-speaking and I enjoy this program very much. However, many people are complaining about the Close Captioning, and that when Spanish/Finnish is spoken with CC on you cannot read the CC because a blurb comes on saying a foreign language is being spoken. Here's a suggestion: To manage the Close Captioning, use the CC button most remotes have. When English is spoken, tap CC to turn it on and the English CC will appear; when Finnish and/or Spanish is being spoken, quickly tap it to turn it off. Conversely, you can keep the CC off all the time if you can understand the English without Close Captioning. I have found, however, that CC even in English is handy to help decipher what is being said!

Halfway through the second season episodes, starting with episode 4, the subtitles for both Spanish and Finnish disappeared so not speaking either language it makes it really hard to figure out what's happening in the show. I thought it was a problem on my end but my close captioning and subtitles were exactly as they always were before. I have the same issue while watching on my phone as well. Has anyone else come across this issue? I really like this show so I'm hoping this is only a temporary issue that will resolve itself in coming episodes. Great cast, good story and who knew there was an expat Finnish community in the Costa Del Sol region of spain?

Great story line, acting & scenery. Surprise ending. Kept me engaged the entire time. Interesting having the 3 languages. Not hard to follow at all. Fell in love with the main characters after the 3rd episode. Is there a season 2, I hope so.

I hope there is a Season 2, We throughly enjoyed Season 1 and are looking forward to Finding out what happens to these interesting characters. How can we find out about its future?
