Netflix series takes place in TJ
Yesterday, we started watching a very fun series on Netflix called THE GRINGO HUNTERS. Based on a real police group that hunts and finds mostly
Americans and returns them to the US. It is so fun to see TJ, a city which we know so well.

Watching it now.
Better as it goes along but really like it.
I liked The Bridge too.
Border town series in the early 2010's.
And El Mariachi - the series was Excellent!

How does it portray Tijuana? All Zona Norte and slums, or are there Zona Rio and upscale neighborhoods in there too?

Shows all parts of TJ.
About a team of agents who recover bad gingos operating on both sides of the border - and return them to the US.

Sorry to report I tried watching it and couldn’t tell what was worse the script or the acting. Best watched with the sound muted to see TJ.

Is it broadcast in English? I don't get Netflix, so I was not able to check it out.
Edit; Never mind, I found the trailer, in English!

If you are not living on the edge, you are taking up too much space!
"Could do better if he tried!" Report card comments from most of my grade school teachers. Sadly, still true!

It was filmed in Spanish but my TV talks English (rough translation).
