Beverly Hills 90210

Review:

Beverly Hills 90210 is a popular soap opera which started in 1990 and focus on a group of teenagers who lives in the luxurious houses of Beverly hills, and goes to West Beverly Hills High School, place where the friendship between them is developed. Each chapter has a different topic such as alcoholism, pregnancy, enmity, fall in and out of love.
The main characters are the brothers Walsh: Brenda and Brandon, who lives with their parents Jim and Cindy. This family moves on from Minneapolis to Beverly Hills. There the adolescents meet Kelly, Dylan, Steve, Andrea, Donna, David, and become a united group of friends which will be together for a long time.
A very important place is the famous “Peach pit”, where the adolescents spend their time talking and having fun. The owner of it is Nat, a friendly man who accompanies the charachters along the soap opera.
I love this soap opera because I find interesting how the problems between the friends are always solved. Besides, I feel identified with some of the characters because they are as normal as everybody is with friends.

Dr House

Book/ Film: "Doctor House".
Genre: Soap opera.
Author/ Director: David Shore
Characters/ Actors: Hugh Laurie.

Review:

I want to tell you about my favourite soap opera I watch every Thursday at nine o’clock in the evening. I’m going to talk about Doctor House.
This soap opera is about a doctor called Gregory House who works in a big hospital at the university of Princeton as a proffesor.
Despite House is very grumpy, lonely and some times acts like a bad person, there is something than I can not explain what makes us love him.
The director of the hospital knows how the pacients are trated by House but she can’t fire him because he saves lots of pacients who noone else can save. So the argues between the director and House are regulary and very funnies. The other ones with the pacients are quite funny too.
I love this soap opera and I can spend lots of hous watching it because each chapter has differents stories if interesting medical cases and they are very entreteining too.

Prison Break

Book/ Film: Prison break
Genre: drama/action
Author/ Director: Paul scheuring
Characters/ Actors: Wentworth Miller, Dominic Purcell, Robert Knepper, Sarah Wayne Callies

Review:
The succesfull serie "prison break", is about the life of Lincoln Burrows, a man with a very hard life. Since he was a kid, he had to take care about his little brother called Michael Scofield, because their father left them behind and their mother was supposed death. Lincoln, as an adult was condemn to die, in the state prison of chicago called Fox River, because of the assassination of Terence Stedman who was the vice-president´s brother. The fact is that he is innocent. So, Michael leaves his succesfull life as an engineer and thinks an incredible plan to take his brother out from prison before his execution. He commited a bank robbery and was condemn to prison. He managed to be sent to fox river´s prison. There he starts his incredible mission to escape from prison with his brother and find the way to prove his innocense. Fighting against the conspiration called "the company" who was the responsable of that, but it will do anything to kill the brothers.

Theodore Bagwell (T-Bag) is my favorite character of this serie. He is a villane, one of the "bad guys" in the prison but with a special personality. He meets the brothers in prison. They don´t like him but when he realizes about the plan of escape, he forces the brothers to take him as part of it, He surprises you each chapter with his strange and twisted personality.

Prison break is my favorite serie because since the beginning of it you can´t stop watching it and wondering yourself how it will go on. I recomend it for all people who want a very original and addictive story.

Lost

Book/ Film: LOST
Genre: Drama and romance
Creators : J.J. Abrams, Damon Lindelof, Jeffrey Lieber.


Characters/ Actors: Jorge Garcia, Josh Holloway, Mathew Fox, Naveen Andrews, Yunjin Kim, Evangeline Lilly, Terry O'quinn.

Review:

Has ever happened to you that you can't take your eyes off the TV while your fauvorite soap opera is on?. That is what happens to me everytime I watch Lost.

This is a programme which consists of 7 principal characters: Hurley, Sayid, John Locke, Kate, Jack, Sawyer and Sun. These people were flying to a particular destination, when suddenly the plane crashed and found themselves in a desert island, in the middle of nowhere. The characters previously mentioned face magical and weird situations, which creates a mistery. The instinct of survival is really interesting and how the relationships between the actors develops each chapter really catches you.

My fauvorite character is without any doubt Sawyer, a man who is always rude, but when he felt in love with Kate, he turned into a lovely man each time he was with her. At first impression, he seems to have no feelings, but at last you realize his good qualities.

Every chapter leaves you a feeling of intrigue, because there is always a problem without resolution, and I always wonder what is going to happen. I think that is what keeps me on watching it, and I am quite sure that every person who watches it would feel the same, so I would strongly recommend it to all the people, with no limit of age.

Gossip Girl

Soap Opera: Gossip Girl

Genre: Drama.
Author/ Director: Josh Schwartz, Stephanie Savage and Cecily Von Ziegesar

Characters/ Actors: Blake Lively(Serena),Leighton Meester(Blair) , Chace Crawford(Nate),Ed Westwick(Chuck), Penn Badgley(Dan) and Taylor Momsen (Jenny).

Review:

Gossip girl is one of the best soap opera I have ever seen.

This story is about the privileged teens from Manhattan’s rich Upper East Side. There, all of them are involved into some problems where they have sex and parties, drink alcohol, etc., so they live in their own world.

At the heart of the action revolves an anonymous blog that notice the personal lives of popular students including two best friends, Serena Van Der Woodsen and Blair Waldorf. This beautiful rich girls have a lot of fights about “boys” but they can solute them. Some of their friends are Nate Archibald, Chuck Bass (a rebel boy) and two teens from the middle-class, Dan Humphrey and his sister Jenny Humphrey.

All of the students have, obviously, a mobile-phone because secrets travel so fast when everyone gets them by text message. Also they have their own vocabulary. They abridge some words, for example when they have to call a friend they say it using the first letter (Blair= B) and when the episode has finished a person tell what has happened and say XOXO (kisses&hugs), Gossip Girl.

Gossip girl is one of the soap operas that make me keep on watching because every time you watch it a new problem began. I like it so much and if you like “gossips”, you should watch it because it’s an interesting drama that involves the life of teenagers, but pay attention, this soap opera is just for girls!

The OC

TV serie: "The OC"

Genre: Comedy, drama and romance

Creator: Josh Schwartz

Characters: Peter Gallagher, Kelly Rowan, Ben McKenzie, Adam Brody, Rachel Bilson, Melinda Clarke, Mischa Barton and Tate Donovan

The O.C. Orange County, It's where all the beautiful people live

I have to tell you about my favorite TV serie , Te OC, which is based on the life of richest families living in Southern California, Newport Beach, Orange County.
The story begins when Ryan Atwood, a problematic child with an unstructed family who live in “Chino” (a slum to few miles from Newport Beach), is involved in the theft of a car with his brother. After being abandoned by his family, is recognized for his public defender (lawyer), Sandy Cohen, who invited him to lives with his family in Newport. Ryan comes to Newport and tries to adapt in the new world. Sandy´s wife is Kirsten, the daughter of a multimillionaire and director of a major real estate company, and his son Seth, a teenager who doesn´t fit with the youth of Newport. Ryan quickly integrate into the family and be another son for them, also the best friend of Seth. Atwood begins to interact with Marissa Cooper, her neighbor, with whom he establishes a romantic relationship.
Soon, Ryan begins to discover the real world of Newport Beach, wealth and ostentation. In O.C. it is discusses several topics, showing, while criticizing, the high society of the U.S. West Coast.
Another important thing, is the relationship between Seth and Rachel. In my opinion, they are the best of the serie, because both always make me laugh and their love is uncommon but nice at the same time. The OC has all the condiments to be one of the best. Moments of sadness, tension, excitement and action. I strongly recommended for teenangers, because it shows their life and their reality, drugs, sex, love and fights.

Brothers and Sisters

Review:

Get Into the real drama of brothers and sisters

Dave annabel, Calista Flockhart, Balthazar Getty, Rachel Griffiths and Sally Fields made one of the best soap opera ever.

Nora Walker is a liberal woman married to a conservative Republican man, William Walker, who is the owner of an important company.
After William death, in a family reunion, Nora and her children discovered that he had had an affair with another woman, Holly Harper. To make matters worse, both of them had had a daugther together, Rebecca Harper.
Now the Walker family have to live and accept their new sister.

B&S offers every week a new problem. Real life problems that make me feel identified, that's what makes me keep on waching it again and again.
So if you like real drama I strongly recommend you to see Brothers & Sisters.
