Yakarta - Season 1

José Ramón Garrido is a former Olympic badminton player who makes a living teaching physical education at a public high school in Vallecas. Divorced and without prospects, Joserra has been drifting for years, but he keeps himself afloat with a daily purpose. Joserra believes he has discovered the diamond that will turn his life around at a school tournament: Mar, a teenage player who could be his ticket to fulfilling his dream of competing in Jakarta, the city where former players like him are respected as stars. Joserra and Mar will have to learn to put up with each other on a journey full of dingy guesthouses, run-down sports centers, and gas stations that takes them through Totana, Ponferrada, Torrelavega, and Tardajos before they reach the Indonesian capital. That is, if they ever get there.

La que se avecina

La que se avecina is a Spanish television comedy created by Alberto Caballero, Laura Caballero and Daniel Deorador. The TV-series focusing around the inhabitants of Mirador de Montepinar, a fictional building located on the outskirts of a big city. Both its storylines and cast are heavily based on Aquí no hay quien viva, which ended when Telecinco bought Miramón Mendi, the series production company. The episodes debuted on the Telecinco network, and were later rerun by the same network as well as cable/satellite channels FactoríaDeFicción and Paramount Comedy. The series debuted in 22 April 2007 and became popular thanks to its funny characters, witty script, use of catchphrases and capacity to integrate and poke fun at contemporary issues; the program presents a caustic satire of many of the 'types' found in Spanish society. The name of the show involves wordplay, as "vecina" is the Spanish word for neighbour.
