    Though fun to watch, and quite enjoyable, Elite fails in deliver a good and cohesive storytelling.
    Honestly, it lacks personality. You can mix two famous shows plots in one and add some spanish characters, but it won't be enough to carry an entire season - especially if you take too much time to develop and individualize this characters.

    For main audience this will probably be another fun and forgetable show which everyone will talk about for not over a month, and then will go right next to the other marathon.    … Expand

    Elite was the kind of dumb teenager stuff that made me and my college roommate drink (mostly me) and just watch it all the way through a week. It has a certain thing that other teen dramas miss and a tad more heart, but it has some fun melodrama to it.

    Elite is not pushing new boundaries in television, it’s not a self-serious reboot of an old property, and it’s definitely not aiming at airless highbrow experimentation. In spite of that--or more likely because of it!--its commitment to breakneck melodrama is undeniably enjoyable.

    It interrogates the very tropes it indulges by finding new gears in old plot engines. And with the addition of a smart flashback structure keeping its central murder mystery afloat, Darío Madrona and Carlos Montero’s drama quickly proves addictive enough that it’s hard to stop watching before the end of its eight-episode conclusion.
