Before it became the record-breaking, absurdist phenomenon we know today, La Que Se Avecina arrived with a difficult mission: it had to fill the massive void left by Aquí no hay quien viva . Looking back at this pilot, it is fascinating to see how the seed was planted for what would eventually become the craziest building in Spanish television history.
The episode begins where Aquí no hay quien viva left off—or rather, where those characters would have been. But this is a new building, a new madness. In 1x1, “La llegada de los nuevos vecinos,” the community president, (the brutally honest, homophobic, and hygienic-obsessed wholesaler of seafood), is holding an emergency meeting in the dingy community room.
