    • Trivia
      Although the series was originally broadcast in Spain in 4:3 standard PAL definition in its first five seasons, the whole series was originally recorded in 16:9 1080p. The original 1080p versions of the first seasons remain unseen in Spanish national TV though, and later re-broadcasts of these seasons are still done in 4:3.

      It was however possible to see the 16:9 versions of these seasons on Antena3 Televisión's internet page. It could be seen then that these episodes had never originally been intended to be broadcast on 16:9, as cameras and crew equipment were clearly visible in some scenes in the area of the screen that later was cropped out.

    Addictive and fun, but a bit ludicrous!
    Netflix has decided for some unknown reason to take El Internado off the air. To be fair they did give me adequate warning, but on Friday I still went to watch it as usual of an afternoon and found that it had disappeared. Sigh. I feel bereft.

    Anyhow, in memory of this slyly addictive show, I will do a review in its honor. Now at the outset I must say that no one was more surprised than me that I was so hooked, but the fact remains that it was strangely well-written for such a ludicrous premise. That premise being that there is a boarding school (the eponymous El Internado de la Laguna Negra) somewhere in rural Spain which attracts the kids of that country's elite, but there are mysterious events afoot with an abundance of underground passages, missing children from the school's history as a former orphanage, and adults with plenty to hide.

    There is skulduggery, for lack of a better word, in every episode with breathtakingly foolish actions and impossible coincidences galore. However, to offset all this is the genuine chemistry among the cast and the almost constant thread of humor that lends the proceedings some lifesaving levity. At the center are the group of teenagers, the principal and teachers, the administrator Jacinta, and two staff members, Maria the cleaner and Fermin the cook.(We are to believe there is but one cleaner in a school of 400 students, but that is just one lapse to overlook because you are too addicted.)
