Surviving the Cartel feels like a fever dream. A really REALLY good fever dream. The directing is absolutely perfect. I can really feel the true emotion and pure character coming from each one.

Now we're officially hooked

I am not gonna lie, I was looking for a reason to not pay and not watch this show. My girlfriend insisted and we watched it. Now we're officially hooked and are getting impatient to watch the next season. What's next for Alejandro Cardona?
This Show is Amazing! WOW!!!
BrigitteAut10 May 2022
I learned about this show through a social media ad. First, I was skeptical as this show is independent and only available on pay-per-view. But the trailer was so intense and the plot seemed so original that I had to watch it. After binging all 5 episodes in one night, all I can say is WOW!!! I'm a woman in my 40s and I am hooked on a Cartel show. I can't believe it. The story, the plot, the dialogue, the direction, the acting, the music are so well executed that it blows my mind.
Well, I love Surviving The Cartel and I think it is very good.

Surviving The Cartel is amazing and I don't know what's going to happen in the next season. I don't want to know myself so I'm not going to spoil it for anyone else! Well I love Surviving The Cartel and I think it is a very good thing on television at the moment. Without a doubt, this is a 10.
Phenomenal show
paniwi-7584321 May 2022
In my opinion this is a phenomenal show with phenomenal characters, and a phenomenal story. Of course, it is not perfect, and it's absolutely NOT the best show of all time. But I recommend it to anyone. In my opinion, the acting is great. The show is about survival and the actions humans take to survive the drug business and its consequences. Why 7? Because I don't like the subtitles and you have them all the time in this show.
want to know more about Alejandro's life in Silicon Valley
wixofi-8324118 May 2022
This show is one of my top series I watched in my life! All Praise for this show is little. It is currently an unrivaled television show. When will the second season be released? Each episode adds a new complication. I want to know more about Alejandro's life in Silicon Valley. Before he comes back to Mexico.
Done with great visuals, an interesting casting.

One of my favorite things about this show is the character development. The storytelling of Surviving The Cartel is done with great visuals, interesting casting and a storytelling format which I love. It's extremely watchable and kept my attention the whole time. The scene between The Pope and Juan in episode 5 is so stunning.
It's in a league of its own
nehav-2959114 June 2022
I liked this series so much that I'm repeating this show again. This show is epic in its entirety. The writing, characters, plot, cinematography, pacing, and the incredible transformation just push this show into a league of its own.
New Show, Great show.
xoceyo-651718 June 2022
These may perhaps be the few thriller TV shows that I will be re-watching again and again throughout my life because it's much more than that. The thrill is just a small reactant of this beautiful final product. Surviving the Cartel is the best show of my life so far.
Well researched!
telijo5 June 2022
The creator must have done a lot of research on cartels and how they operate. That's the reason why this show is so original. It must be a pure passion for the creator to capture people's struggles and how the society is going on with the duality side.
Flawless with a unique story.
dilakar18 May 2022
Surviving the Cartel is the one and only series where the unfolding of the story and the episodes were flawless. That's is really rare to find right now because the quality of content available in general is so poorly written. Right now, Surviving the Cartel is the one and only series that has a great unique story. It feels really different.
Nothing even remotely comes close.

Surviving the Cartel is the best television show
bavojoy15 May 2022
The creator, writer, director and actors have paid attention to every single detail, putting thought into every nuance in every character in every scene. Get on your couch now and start watching "Surviving the Cartel" from the very beginning, and don't miss a single scene.
Compelling storylines! This is ART!

The best series
migor-7251613 July 2022
This is the best series I have ever watched. After the first episode I was hooked. I continued to watch and I watched for 5 straight hours. My sister and I refer to the show as "Bandidos" . We think that Alejandro Cardona is a great character.
This is the way TV-series should be made
rahew-0328314 June 2022
This Surviving The Cartel is beautiful. I think this is the way TV-series should be directed and produced. I loved the fast pace of the series from the first minute till the end. I didn't skip anything or felt bored.
The flow of the series and the way the director delivers it to the screen is unique. This is the best series I have ever watched. It is perfectly written. Surviving the Cartel is the perfect series ever.

The word brilliant isn't enough
hebiboc30 June 2022
I have seen many brilliant shows, and Surviving the Cartel is one of them. Even the word brilliant isn't enough to put into words how good this series is. Surviving the Cartel is by far the best show of all time. The drama. The character development. The acting. The build-up. The suspense. This is perfect.
Vortex of intense and dangerous situations mixed with calm.
fasepe-8414511 June 2022
Surviving the Cartel is a magnificent, outstanding, and completely original television series that is filled with fantastic character development, action, and an endless amount of highly intense and unforgetful scenes. In spite of the vortex of intense and dangerous situations the show manages to carry throughout all its episodes some unexplainable vibe of incredible calmness.
Multi elements and multi angles.
tegog-840495 June 2022
I will try to summarize this show. I think Surviving The Cartel has multi elements and multi angles. In fact, the highly praised realism is not the focus of my attention, but the problem is that it is the realism that the crew adheres to that improves the relatively unique promotion of the whole and the unpredictable ending of clues. The details are excellent..
By the 10 minute mark, I knew this was brilliant.
cihavo-512508 June 2022
I have never seen a production in which I was so integrated with its characters. I could have easily given a 10. When I first heard of this, I thought the concept of the show was original and unique. Especially, because it's not based on something. By the 10 minute mark, I was fully engrossed and knew this was brilliant.
