Walter’s Choice picks

More Spanish drama shows are needed. Plenty of offerings in other languages, but very limited selection of Spanish dramas.

Finding your roots

I find this series so full of mystery, wonder and joy. It amazes me how they answer and fulfill the lives of their guests. Thank you for being the ultimate genetic puzzle masters
