My only complaint about Narcos is the accents.

They are horrendous. I don’t understand why they didn’t cast more Colombian actors. Escobar is being played by a Brazilian. His accent is just weird. I have to kind of ignore it so I can watch the show but occasionally it really grates on my ears.

I keep talking to Chris in Spanish which he finds amusing. He knows enough to get the gist of what I’m saying, I think. When I hear Spanish my mind automatically switches over. Plus it’s really nice to be immersed in it. I miss that.

I lived in Venezuela during the era that the show is set. It really reminds me a lot of a place that used to be my home. I’m experiencing profound nostalgia. I really miss Caracas.
