Series: La que se avecina

Which beckons!

"I appoint you to the charge of vice-president of dirty things, In nomine Patris et fillii et Spiritus Sancti...

—Antonio Recio

"I'm Estela Reynolds. Fernando Esteso sucked one of my nipples in "Desembraga a fondo". Have you got the BETA video?.

—Estela Reynolds

From the writers of another well known Spanish comedy series, Aquí No Hay Quien Viva (Nobody Can Live Here) comes La Que Se Avecina (The Coming One), a Slice of Life sitcom which happens in a new building called Viewpoint of Pinemountain (Mirador de Montepinar). A humorous series showing conflicts and everyday problems that face the inhabitants and workers of the building. A chaotic family; a newly married couple; a Spanish Bridget Jones; the ''annoying pest", Leo; a pre-retired couple; an antisocial defaulter; a gallant actor; two squatters, and a couple with three children are some of the characters who live in the building.

This show provides examples of:

Blond Guys are Evil - Nines says that all blondes are evil. And it looks as if all bald men are evil, too.
Dirty Old Man - Enrique's father.
Divorce Assets Conflict - The "Cuquis" after Amador finds out the son his wife has is from Sergio Arias.
Dumb Blonde - Subverted with Raquel Villanueva.
Only Sane Man - Enrique Pastor.
Poltergeist - In episode 2.07 - A trio, a cleaning lady and a rain of cauliflowers.
Punny Name: The title is likely a pun on the phrase "la vecina" (the neighbor woman.)
Show Within a Show - La Pecaminosa (The Sinful Girl). Sergio Arias, a neighbor from Mirador de Montepinar, is the hero of the show.
Slice of Life
Straight Gay - Antonio's son, Alvaro. Note that in the first season, Alvaro was straight. But, in the second season, he goes out of the closet.
Tournament Arc - Episode 1.07 - A reunion, an eviction and a paddle tournament.
