We continue with another Spanish series that, in this case, will come to us with a second season: La Peste. We will immerse ourselves in the Seville of the 16th century, where there is a plague epidemic. Yes, something perfect for these moments where we are going through the COVID-19 pandemic.
Later, the story turns into a thriller, as some bodies of people who had been murdered are found, something that was thought of as an "omen" of the end of the world. In short, perfect for those who expect something shocking and that, to a certain extent, has something to do with reality.

The first one is Mysteries of the Underworld, a National Geographic production that tries to introduce us to some of the most important enigmas on Earth, generating different explanations and conclusions that fans will love.
It will also include one of the most popular Disney series: Glee, in its 6 seasons. The story is about a rather optimistic teacher who seeks to motivate his students so that they can take McKinley High to an art competition so the school can rise to glory.
