Cultural Tip
In many Spanish‑speaking households, binge‑watching a series is a common weekend activity. When talking about TV shows, it's polite to ask the other person if they have seen it before, especially if the series is popular in the region. Also, note that 'serie' is feminine, so adjectives must match (e.g., 'serie interesante', not 'serie interesante' with masculine forms).
