Por favor mis amigas y amigos, someone please tell me I'm not the only one watching this Spanish series? I'm really enjoying it. The opening is pretty cheesy but the characters are really great and I recognize a lot of the actors from the other Spanish series PBS aired a couple of years back called La Otra Mirada. It's sort of like a Spanish Upstairs/Downstairs but set in a Madrid department store called Velvet. Anyone else watching?
