Nobody has any comments on this latest episode? I haven't had a chance to watch any of the eps this season. From the discussions here it sounds worthwhile. I just need more time in the week.

I didn't mind Pol being shirtless... it'd be too quick but too bad Bruno didn't see that. I wish that something would develop more between the 2 or do we have to wait until someone becomes interested in Bruno??? Episode 9 scene keeps replaying on YouTube for me...

I'm liking this season just as much as the last one. I was already expecting Bruno's storyline to start a bit slow with the producers saying on interviews how they wanted to develop the supporting characters that were not fully explored last season, as well as the new characters. I think there will be more focus on Bruno's storyline as the season goes... we're still on the 3rd episode with 10 more to go. I'm not holding my breath for a Bruno + Pol love relationship, but I'm sure that will be addressed in some way once Bruno's love life gets more attention on the show. Having said that, I love how the show has 2 very different gay teens with different and independent storylines.

Because we are only looking at clips focused on Pol and Bruno, who were explored pretty heavily last season, I'm not surprised they want to spend more time on other characters like Ivan, who were separated from the rest of the class for most of last season, and Oliver, who just joined at the end of the last season. Hopefully, there will be more Pol and Bruno storyline later on this season.

My Spanish skills are sub par but the actor who plays Pol Apparently talks about the kiss and possible spoilers for season 2.

Carlos said he doesn't think anything further needs to happen between Pol and Bruno. Would he say that if something further does happen this season? I think we should be prepared to be disappointed on that front. But perhaps they will keep the door open to something happening in a future season, as cheerios suggested.

It could and probably does mean that nothing is going to happen with Pol and Bruno this season, or it could be a red herring to throw the audience off balance, we'll see.

Frankly, i don't think it will be any romantic involvement between them. Pol only wanted to experiment, and he knows he can't experiment will Bruno, because he has feelings for him and it will end being hurt.
What i expect is some development with Bruno, or the italian boyfriend comes to visit him or they break up and he find someone new.
What we'll see is more about Oliver, it's nice to see a show with two gay characters in the same age range that seem not destined to be a couple, because frankly i can't see them together

I also don't think there will be anything romantic happening between Pol/Bruno. Actors don't usually throw red herring as their first resort. They usually try to dodge the question or give an evasive answer. Giving Bruno an Italian boyfriend is a bit of a cop out though, since he won't show up very often. Wish they gave him a boyfriend from another class maybe. Not to mention the fact that we skip the whole build up of the relationship there.

wow Pol and Bruno new ep ..... BIG SPOILER!!! for a 'straight' guy, Pol definitely enjoys hooking up with Bruno, i just wish he'd be the one to initiate it. Everything happens in about the last 7 minutes of the episode. "Pity because i want to play with you"

Is this real? They have sex again? If so, Carlos really threw a fake out.

Snippets of the interview courtesy of Google translate "they have a very nice and obvious affection" The statement after nothing has to happen seems to be is "They are friends and are comfortable as they are."

I wonder when that interview with Carlos was filmed. If it was filmed during shooting, then he might not have seen the script yet that has Pol and Bruno having sex again. Perhaps he's just expressing his opinion about Pol and Bruno's future. The sex does seem to come out of the blue. If he was in the middle of filming the season, he might not have seen it coming.

Wow that was one passionate hot make out scene.
I'm confused were the boys both basically horny and in need of that release so they are helping each other out? There is a connection there, and a emotional and physical attraction.

Yeah, Pol didn't put up much of a fight and once he got going he seemed VERY into it. It would have been better, though, if the start of sex had been spontaneous between them and not Bruno throwing himself at Pol. I worry about their friendship if Pol is going to have a bad reaction afterwards.
I wonder where they are going with Pol-Bruno. Are they going to have a very sophisticated "European" relationship where they are close friends who sometimes have sex as they see other people? Or perhaps it's going to be a story about Pol coming to realize that despite being straight, Bruno is his soulmate.
As far as I know, only Tania knows about Pol-Bruno. It could be interesting if Merli found out.

Well, that was interesting. Thanks for posting the pics and the clips. Yeah, it came on pretty quick. Although last season that encounter at the party came out of nowhere too. Pol talking about some woman, then suddenly going for it with Bruno a moment later. He really didn't need much convincing, did he. I do wonder what Bruno was thinking, and what he'll do next. Certainly he's been longing for Pol for a long time. I'm very curious what will happen next.

Pol looked perfectly happy to take Bruno up on his offer and he also seemed to be enjoying it a great deal. Interesting that Pol got all worked up over Ivan's mother and could have gone to probably any girl in his class for some sexual release. But he came to his friend Bruno and didn't put up a fight when Bruno seduced him.
It would be interesting if they had Pol be the one who got more attached than Bruno. Turns things around, since Bruno seems more secure in himself with this new boyfriend in Rome. I think they will continue to have sex, they were both enjoying it way too much for this to only happen once.

I didn't expect that to happen, but okay it did. Let's see where the show is going with this. I mean we know that Pol doesn't self identify as gay. Perhaps he's bi, or perhaps as in so many other gay soap parings Pol is only Brunosexual.

Turns things around, since Bruno seems more secure in himself with this new boyfriend in Rome. I think they will continue to have sex, they were both enjoying it way too much for this to only happen once. Pol did make a pass at Berta earlier in the episode, but she turned him down. I don't think he really had other female options. I'm not so sure Pol would be open to sex with Bruno if he had a female option. We'll see. I think Pol was frustrated and in the market for casual sex. Bruno made a great offer at just the right time. The sex could make things awkward between them or it could bring them even closer. It's possible Pol could be more relaxed about sex with Bruno this time, especially if Bruno is also relaxed about it. Interesting thought about things turning around between them. We saw last season that Bruno was able to delete a photo of Pol from his phone when he was mad at him, but Pol wasn't able to delete Bruno's photo. Seems that Pol's feelings actually run deeper and he was the one, after all, who introduced sex into the friendship. If things are going to turn around at some point, I think it will take some event to bring it about, like something bad happening to Bruno. BTW, it's worth checking out the Gerard scenes in the episode. They're hilarious.

Well, it seems i was completely wrong. Bruno was pretty clear, so this time it's supposed not being problems (but of course this won't be as simple as it seems).
I love La Calduch, if someone can teach a thing or two about lies to Merlí is his mother
And yes, the show is a phenomenon in Cataluña. In the rest of Spain the first season did well enough (specially for a show that aired already in a significant part of the country)
