Netflix has a tense new disaster show that’s already claimed the No.1 spot - La Palma. It’s a Norwegian show about an volcano about to erupt. (www.tomsguide.com)

I just finished watching it and the beginning is great, visuals and effects were great, actors were decent but the writing and story was lacking

spoilerThe ending although very dramatic is terribly unrealistic and wedged into fantasy in order to follow a fanciful narrative

Thanks for sharing !

FYI, your spoiler does not seem to work

Fixed it thanks ... posting the spoiler over an app seems to work differently than on PC ... I'll keep that in mind

Lacking to the point of being entertaining in its own way or just leaving a taste of disappointment?

I flew out of La Palma the day before the volcano last erupted. A day earlier we hiked a popular 20km trail that weaves around the cones of old eruption sites.

So, yeah… Curious about this one

I had been to Tenerife myself years ago. We took a drive around the island and we were amazed because in a day long drive, we were able to see jungle, desert, ocean, beach, forests, rain, bright sun and what looked like the surface of the moon.

We were excited to watch this TV series because of what happened at La Palma. The series is good to watch, and it was fun to see and the story and writing is good enough and entertaining. The science and realism was just lacking. You'll enjoy it and it's still fun to watch.
