I'm looking for Spanish TV shows I can download/watch online. I'm open to any genre as long as it's aimed at a mixed or female audience. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks! :) 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

Check out the website of RTVE, this link takes you to their "a la carta" selection of programmes you can watch online. Click on the "series" button and you will get up a list of series you can watch.
My wife liked the series "Isabel" a lot. It is the story of how Isabel la Católica became queen of Castilla - if you like historical series, it can be recommended. Cuéntame cómo pasó is one of the longest-running series on Spanish TV and one of RTVE's biggest successes. It is in its 14th season, and it seems practically all seasons and episodes are online. Finally, La Señora is another of my wife's favourites, its set in Spain in the 1920s. I leave it to you to explore the rest of the site. 7 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

Do you know if they have any shows with subtitles? I've tried a few series, but couldn't find any. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

They don't have any shows with subtitles, to the best of my knowledge. Edited by iguanamon on 19 March 2013 at 7:52pm 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

This is awesome! Thank you so much for that link! I've watched 20 minutes of "Isabel" and I can already tell I'll be spending a lot of time with that series. Unfortunately I'll have to watch it in small installments, because it takes a lot of focus, but I suspect I'll improve quickly watching this. Quality stuff. 2 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

I just got a subscription to Hulu. They have lots of
Mexican telenovelas with subtitles, and it's available in Japan. Shows I've checked out are: La Fea más Bella (The Prettiest Ugly Girl) - A romantic comedy about a "fea" who takes a job as a secretary to the president of a modeling agency. It's been fun to watch, and some of the actors have great comic timing. This is the one I'm watching now. Soy tu dueña (I am your master) - A steamy soap. I only watched the first episode, but I'll come back to it. From wikipedia: Valentina Villalba (Lucero) is a beautiful woman with a fortune that she inherited from her parents. She has a mansion in Mexico City, where she lives with her aunt Isabel Dorantes (Silvia Pinal) and her cousin Ivana (Gabriela Spanic). Valentina is engaged to Alonso (David Zepeda), but she doesn't know that Alonso is cheating on her with Ivana. Ivana has an additional lover, Oscar Ampudia (Claudio Baez), who is married. Ivana runs over Oscar with his car. Alonso stands up Valentina at their wedding. He has planned to run away with Ivana, but he ends up taking a different life. Abismo de Pasión More steamy drama. The title probably clued you into that, and if not the promo shot probably should ... 
I'd say that's aimed at a mixed or female audience! Edited by kanewai on 20 March 2013 at 7:58am 2 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

OK, one more that I just started, and so far it's excellent!
La Reina del Sur - this was made by Telemundo (USA), and it was the most expensive, and most successful, telenovela yet. It's from the novel by Arturo Pérez- Reverte, and tells the story of a Mexican narco's girlfriend who becomes an international trafficker after he's murdered. You can watch most of the episodes with English subtitles online at: mun2. Most, but strangely, not all. The rest are on YouTube, but without subtitles. And you have to hunt around to get the episodes. I made a playlist with all the parts of the first five episodes ... this should be public if I did it right: La Reina del Sur playlist It's pretty easy to follow the general plot without subtitles ... at least so far.
