One of the great names in the Spanish audiovisual industry, especially in television, is Javier Ambrossi. The duo formed with Javier Calvo has brought us some of the best series of the last decade, and their impact as creators has been such that today, knowing they are behind a project means that at least it will be worth taking a look. 

Ambrossi started as an actor on series like Sin tetas no hay paraíso, Amar es para siempre, or El comisario, where he played rather secondary characters. This may have been an indication that he would stand out more for his role behind the cameras and as a creator because it has been from the script room and as a producer (through the company Suma Content) that he has truly captivated the audience. 

His stories have transcended the screen and have stayed with us, making it clear that any project bearing his name and that of Javier Calvo will be able to recover figures from the Spanish cultural imaginary that were denigrated or forgotten like with Veneno -or the future Superestar-, emotionally touch us with stories like that of La Mesías, make us laugh, and even create an iconic meme factory like the one that Paquita Salas has already become. The series premiered its final episodes in 2019, much to the dismay of fans who continue to demand a fourth season.

The 'Paquita Salas' Phenomenon

'Paquita Salas'

A few years ago, in 2016, a small series became a viral phenomenon. It was called Paquita Salas and was not broadcast on any television channel. The Antena 3 platform Flooxer gave the green light to the first TV creation of two young men who had rocked the theater world with a musical, La Llamada, and who were full of ideas. They were Javier Calvo and Javier Ambrossi, henceforth known as The Javis, who managed to captivate the audience with the story of this talent agent born in Navarrete.

Paquita Salas (played by Brays Efe) was the best talent agent of the 90s. And although everything has changed now, she hasn't changed much. When her most famous actress unexpectedly leaves her, Paquita's world teeters, leading her to search for new talent that will put her back where she deserves in the profession while finding her place in life and in her career. 

The series is available on Netflix and since its premiere eight years ago, its audience has elevated it, making its most iconic scenes a part of Spanish popular culture and turning them into memes that continue to flood social networks.

The phenomenon was such that many continue to revisit it whenever they can and they keep asking its creators to bring it back with a fourth season. And it wouldn't be too much to ask, considering that Paquita Salas has done nothing but bring joy to viewers.
