Since its debut in 2007, the web series Chica Busca Chica, or “girl seeks girl,” has emerged as “Spain’s answer to The L Word,” with its mostly lesbian cast, constant hookups and hilarious antics.
Indeed, Chica Busca Chica shares many similarities to one of the most well-known lesbian TV shows in America ― memorable characters, a focus on sex and relationships, and a cast of beautiful women. Yet the show lacks the exploration of serious issues in the Lgbt community that made the Showtime series so dramatic.
Still, Chica Busca Chica succeeds as a blithe comedy that explores dating, cheating and lesbian life in present-day Madrid, and it's now available in Spanish with English subtitles on DVD through Wolfe Video.
The show revolves around four major cast members: Nines the “Flirt” (Celia Freijeiro), Mónica the “Psycho” (Cristina Pons), Carmen the “Hetero” (Sandra Collantes), and Ana the “Newbie” (Almudena Gallego).
