Any other DU-ers watching "Nobody's Looking" on Netflix?

It's an incredibly odd Brazilian series. I don't even know how to describe it. Red-headed, guardian angels sent to Earth engaging in, ummm, Earthly pleasures with the humans they are protecting. It's really cute and different. I'm hooked.

I'm bummed out.I watched all of season one and it ended with a cliff-hanger, of course. Laffy Kat Jan 2020 #7

I know. The bisexuality in the series is depicted as normal and no big deal. Laffy Kat Jan 2020 #9

It took me a couple of episodes to get into it, but it's so quirky I had to keep watching. The angels are nerdy yet sexy. I just finished the fourth episode and they are all losing their virginity.

I’ve been watching it tonight. I like the different take on guardian angels. It reminds me a lot of Dead Like Me. It’s like guardian angels with modern problems.

It says a lot about the quality of the show when you can’t wait to see the next season.

I love that it’s Brazilian. They’re not nearly as uptight about sex and religion as we are here! It’s hard to imagine a program here that would be as irreverently playful and childlike about those subjects.

There are also incidental trans characters. Brazilians are, indeed, less uptight about sexuality. I mean, as they pointed out in the series, they have Carnival!
