Netflix's "Narcos" (Season 3) (2015 - 2017) - Blu-ray Forum

Oscar Rothman · 04-01-2014, 08:04 PM

Netflix has confirmed its next series order. Narcos, a serialized take on Pablo Escobar and the Medellin Cartel, received a 10-episode order.

From director Jose Padilha and Gaumont International Television, the latest original will bow in 2015. The project gets an official greenlight with the addition of actor Wagner Moura to star as Escobar. It reunites the actor with his Elite Squad director.

“Jose and Wagner together created one of the most sophisticated and chilling portraits of criminality and official corruption ever in their Elite Squad movies,” said Netflix chief content officer Ted Sarandos. “Their version of the Escobar saga will be like nothing ever seen before.”

“Our idea is to tell the true story of how cocaine became such a huge problem in the U.S. and Europe – and how it all started here in Medellin,” added Padilha, now preparing Narcos in Colombia.

I saw the name Pablo Escobar and imediately remembered it from breaking Bad when Hank gives Walt Jr the book based on his take-down.

Going from previous Netflix productions i am quite excited for this one.
(We'll just forget that Hemlock Grove exists.)

1blufan · 08-31-2015, 06:51 AM

4 episodes in and it's solid,I'm really enjoying it.

groove93 · 08-31-2015, 02:45 PM

I watched the entire series over the weekend and thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm going watch it again because of the subtitles. I wasn't use to reading all of the subtitle for such a extended length of time so there are some elements of the story I want to check out again. The first episode hooks you into the series and you simply can't stop watching it after that. Can't wait for season 2.

reason108 · 09-05-2015, 09:03 AM

There was a series on the Spanish channels about Pablo, but no subs. I sort of understood some of what was going on. It looked pretty good. Cant remember the name of it though. I wasn't sure if it was the same one on Netflix, but from the trailer, I dont think so. The trailer looks really good. I will have to check out the series.

Elbie · 09-07-2015, 09:25 PM

I thought it was ok. I enjoyed it. Nothing amazing.

reaperx187 · 09-10-2015, 12:57 PM

I started the first episode last night but was getting tired so i stopped but i liked what i caught so far will watch more tonight most likely.

kitsVA · 10-13-2015, 02:09 PM

I'm hooked. Watched 7 episodes nonstop and had to force myself to sleep so I don't call sick this morning due to lack of sleep.

reaperx187 · 10-13-2015, 02:17 PM

I'm almost done with the 1st Season now on episode 9 will finish maybe tonight or later on this week.
