Love It! Season 3 please!

1st-- loved the soundtrack.

2nd-- I ship victor and luisa so hard 3rd -- really cool special effects 4-- Victor's ART!!!

5-- I lost my brother recently and Sofianes dedication and undying love for Reda hooked me.

6 the characters grew, matured, evolved in a way that reminds me of the stories our english teachers made us discuss and write papers on in school

Obe gave a fresh take on the villian. It was really hard to hate him in the way I've loved to loathe other bad guys.

For me Obe was Almost like an antihero. I felt bad for him and kind of came to understand his motives as they developed.

Overall, Mortel does a great job providing positive approaches to difficult situations that need attention in today's world.

To name a few: Human Trafficking, PTSD, child abuse, Stockholm syndrome, mental healthcare, addiction, emotional intelligence, respecting sexual boundaries.

Without feeling like a cheesy afterschool special ...Quite the opposite, It deals with some heavy undertones in an intelligent, digestible way.

I found the characters intensely relatable.

The range and depth of emotions the cast members displayed completely engulfed me into their world.

There was one 5 second scene where Manon Bresch's character --Luisa-- i expected her to show the anger, fear, and determination that appeared but then she briefly wore immense empathy towards Obe's situation totally drawing me deeper into the world with them.

I'm a weird person and Mortel was so wonderfully weird that I'm watching for the 3rd time through this weekend.

Love it.
