What We're Binge Watching: Club de Cuervos

A dramedy and Netflix original series which debuted in 2015 and marked their first foray into Spanish-language content of its kind, Club de Cuervos (Club of Crows) is set in the fictional Mexican town of Nuevo Toledo, where Mariana TreviƱo and Luis Gerardo Mendez as the Iglesias siblings Isabel and Salvador Jr. who inherit their father's soccer team, Cuervos FC, after the patriarch suffers a sudden and fatal heart attack, fight for ownership and control of the team with often disastrous results.

Reviews have been overwhelmingly positive, with The Huffington Post raving that the show "oscillates brilliantly from laugh-out-loud comedy to poignant drama, while never dipping into Latin stereotypes or telenovela melodrama."

Club de Cuervos's third season debuted this past September.
