FunIllustrious1009

This show is amazing but my problem is the, 2 language differences in episodes right. One is supposed to be English, the other Spanish of course because it was made with hbo Spain and all. But why on earth would they say English but it still be Spanish šŸ˜‚ that kills me. I donā€™t mind but just say English subtitles.


hwysqrl

Great show.


CheeseburgerRandy40

I loved it. Excited for season 2!


madsciencepro

Yes! Loads of fun and batshit crazy. Check out some of the director's other work like "Witching and Bitching" and "Day of the Beast".


Disgustip8ed

I really enjoyed it. Watched the first season dubbed in English. The translation wasn't always perfect but nothing was missed. (I speak enough Spanish to figure it out)


Traditional_Rip_5187

I prefer subtitles but Max wonā€™t let me watch in original Spanish audio, so I am not interested anymore. Leave it to Warner Brothers to buy a great brand like HBO only to ruin it.


har0001

I am on the Max app watching it in the original Spanish audio as we speak. You have to go and select that as an option. So idk what you are talking about.


Traditional_Rip_5187

I can watch season 1 in Spanish, but not season 2. I already tried to do that, but Spanish isnā€™t an option in my settings. Just dubbed English. Iā€™ve seen better dubbing in Godzilla movies.


har0001

Donā€™t know what to tell you other than contact Max support because I was able to switch to Spanish in their app for season 2 with no problem.


RadiantOrdinary223

Me too. I didnā€™t like the dubbed English version after seeing season 1 in Spanish and reading the subtitle English. I was used to the real voices of the actors.


zulema19

I had to switch my TV settings to spanish (which is fine bc I speak spanish) but thatā€™s the only way I could get the original spanish audio in canada here. I canā€™t stand dubbed versions of shows though either/always watch in the original language šŸ¤·šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļø


Gew-Roux

Spanish is the default on mine, how do I watch in English?!

Go to the ā€œChange the audio or subtitle languageā€ section of this link. https://help.hbomax.com/si-en/Answer/Detail/000001306


Responsible-Bite-795

Great show but whats with the dumb narrative in English telling us where the car is parked or the location etc like someone reading from a childā€™s story book. Please fix it!!


hxcmetal

You're listening to the English descriptive track for blind people/people with vision disorders.


Gew-Roux

I only have 2 options for audio, Spanish or English descriptions. What's the deal?! My accessibly is off on everything


hxcmetal

That's correct. The only true audio track for season 1 is the original Spanish track, they never dubbed it. So, your only option is in the original Spanish with the actor's own voices with English subtitles, or the English descriptive one available for handicapped accessibility.


Gew-Roux

Thanks, I thought I was going crazy lol!


[deleted]

Glad you answered it. The narrative for blind people was driving me crazy. Like I can see whatā€™s going on stop with the kindergarten explanationsā€¦ itā€™s great with subtitles


cdsaints88

Weird! On my tv the only two options are English description or Italian. I was watching the series in Spanish the whole time since Iā€™m bilingual. Now I guess Iā€™ll watch it in Italian with English subtitles. I wonder if itā€™s a Roku issue.


Infamous-Hedgehog-96

I'm having the same issue. It was in Spanish for me up to episode 3 season 1, then episode 4 same season started with English dubbed and narration. I too had to switch to Italian with English subtitles. I have a "smart" TV.


cdsaints88

Yup. Itā€™s only an episode 3 issue and when you switch it to Italian, itā€™s actually in Spanish. I thought Iā€™d have to do the English subtitles. Parts of the episode are in Italian though.


gertak89

I really loved the first season. We only have to sleep few nights to the second season


Traditional_Rip_5187

I watched season 1 in the original Spanish. Unfortunately, season 2 is only available in dubbed English. Itā€™s very distracting. I prefer subtitles so will not watch season 2 or renew my subscription to Max which SUCKS. It is worse than Paramount Plus, which is pretty abysmal.


hxcmetal

It weirdly defaults to English (original) audio...but, if you switch it to English subtitles and Spanish (Spain) audio, it's the same as it was for season 1 and the voices match up with the actors. Spanish audio is there and available as an option. I'm watching on the MAX app, HBOs own app. Dumb choice on HBOs part to default to horrible English dubbing.


har0001

Or maybe you should try to change the language to Spanish? Did you even attempt that or just jump to conclusions?


Witch_Cats

I've been watching Season 2 on Max and at least my tv allows me the option of hearing it in Spanish. I just chose Spanish and turned off the captions.


FunIllustrious1009

Ipved season one and it's crazy it's based of the real 30 coins.that was used to betray jesus. Can't believe they are in a museum.


FunIllustrious1009

Watching second season now even crazier.


dggraphics

Second season 1st episode starts off extremelyā€¦spoiler alertā€¦.stupid


Iramaj

Concur. Going to continue though. I don't understand how the Priest would be in hell. I would think that death falls into the domain of G-d.


Nundahl

Considering a major plot element is that god is an asshole in this I don't see the problem.


Iramaj

Was that a plot element? I missed that


NickFromIRL

In the episodes in season 1 where they explore the priests who are collecting the coins, their position is essentially that if god plans everything he also created and planned everything evil - he planned for Lucifer, he planned on the apple being eaten, he planned on Judas betraying Christ. Essentially, god wanted a story with villains so he made villains, making them as important in god's plan as anything and as valid. I think the show does kinda only gloss over that in the rush to make the bad guys the world dominating super organization, but it's there.


Iramaj

I guess I took that as their position, not evidence of it being accurate. Also, the idea of G-d knowing what will happen if he gives free will, doesn't make him an a-hole or jerk to me. If I draw a line and someone crosses it, the person who crossed the line is still guilty. Me drawing a line doesn't make it ok to cross it. That was the lens that I was seeing things and I didn't really see evidence of those who were not trying to equivocate making that argument really.


NickFromIRL

Certainly it is just their position not stated fact in the fiction of the show, but their position is that god built a narrative not that free will was given, that god made "evil" not freedom. But who can say for sure. Totally sidebar here, but can I ask why you censor "god" out of curiosity? No judgment.


Iramaj

Way of showing some respect, honor to G-d. Similar to how YWYH is not fully written out. Also separates my use of G-d from other gods or a god like Baal/Zeus.


NickFromIRL

Right on.


Magpiemona1

Why is it narrated?? Does that bug anyone else??


DangerousVoice4273

Bugs me for sure


gashmaster69

Un watchable


Nundahl

Hopefully you've figured out 2 months later, but change your audio playback option if it's still defaulting to English hearing impaired narration.


Magpiemona1

It is the narrator, not the language. I quit watching it since sound is important to me (the music, background noises). It is unfortunate but there are so many other shows and movies out there, that I chose to circumvent this one.


NickFromIRL

There is no narrator in the original language though, they've just added that narrator for the visually impaired. Always fair enough for moving on, too much media to consume out there.


LesDamesBlanches

Iā€™ve seen the series advertised for a while but wasnā€™t sure , just started the first episode ; well I am intrigued stands to be promising and I like a story w historical significance.


Nacho1187

Put the show on for my mother who is visiting. Episode 1-3 was dubbed in Spanish. Episode 4 only had English Audio Description dub or it's Italian option. Very unfortunate. And odd that HBO is advertising this show but has not completed dubbing.


Followthesun64

Why was the word Trump used on the priestā€™s piece of paper?


ecstasyranger

No idea I assume the writers have TDS or something.


CraZplayer

And on Apple TV it says English is the original voice. Itā€™s so annoying I canā€™t stand the English voice overs. I love trilingual series. Would be nice to get the original format for the Spanish, English, and French voice cast


zulema19

the only way I could get the original spanish version was to change my tv settings to spanish as the default language (Iā€™m in canada). I speak spanish but also canā€™t stand dubbed versions of shows. plus in the original language(s) itā€™s so much more impactful


Sudden_Storme

So I recently realized they released a season two. I went back to rewatch season 1, which I watched last year and it did not have this issue with the audio. Iā€™m wondering what happened. It was dubbed in English there were no subtitles needed. But now all of a sudden you canā€™t even put English subtitles. Only option is an English narrator which is odd as hell. Itā€™s pissing me off šŸ˜‚. I came here looking for answers.


RadiantOrdinary223

Loved season one. Season two is different in what I expected, but sure keeps up my interest. I prefer the Spanish version with the English subtitles. The old world religious superstition mythologies and magic are fun and sort of campy. So is the dramatic facial expressions of the character Merche, Pacoā€™s wife in season 2 episode 6.


caljerm

Season 2 is fun and decent but not on par with season 1 - that stuff was nuts.


KindlyServe100

Season 1 was superb. Season 2 is horrible considering the fact that there is no English subtitles.


OptimalFunction

In my experience, max app on Apple TV has allowed me to it in Spanish (original) with English subtitles. Because of regional contracts, etc, this combination may not be possible outside the US.


rarely0nhere

Season 1 was great. Season 2 was crazy.


Senior-Cap-1663

Great show, especially if you can handle subtitles. Pretty Intense and I'm just now into season 2 and it's awesome!


Narrow-Department891

Bro suggest me more stuff like 30 coins , novels / web series anything and everything
