Hi guys.
I'm starting with my new challenge: Spanish (Castellano).
Can you please advice me some funny tv\web series and shows (and youtube channels) in
Castellano (other than Destinos ;) ). Please no telenovelas, I don't give a **** about
her betraying the fourth husband that inherits a castle that was of the uncle of the
second wife of the step father of the second brother of the gardiner and discovering
in the end that it was a dream of the dog. :D

I generally like american style dramas and comedy, but I'm open to something more
european as well.

Thank you very much in advance! :)

(forgot to mention, I understand Spanish fairly well and I already watch movies and
read books and newspapers just because Spanish is similar to Italian)

I recently discovered "Aquí no hay quien viva", which Stelle mentioned in her log. It's a comedy about the residents of an apartment block. It's a good laugh and full of everyday colloquial language. And it's all watchable on Youtube! Here's the first episode.

Here's a couple of sitcom-type shows:

Que vida más triste -- about a Spanish guy with a pathetic life. It's pretty funny and the Spanish is slower than in other shows.

(You can find more videos on Youtube by searching "qvmt.")

Aída -- about a family that lives in Madrid; I haven't watched much of this one but I believe it was very popular in Spain.

Some other Spanish shows that might be entertaining:

El club de la comedia -- stand-up comedians; might be hard to understand because they talk pretty fast and there's not much context though.

El intermedio -- show that makes fun of news (vaguely similar to The Daily Show in the US)

Mi madre cocina mejor que la tuya -- reality cooking show with mother and child teams; it's not what one would normally think of as funny but I find it very entertaining.
