Hello, can anyone recommend any tv shows in Spanish that are on dvd?
I really like comedy or drama..i have access to amazon but if you know of a better place to buy Spanish dvd's please let me know :)

P.s, i use them to practice listening because i find it easier to understand written Spanish.

Hello, can anyone recommend any tv shows in Spanish that are on dvd?

I have been watching two types of shows: cooking shows and a documentary type of 'animal' show.

The cooking gives lots of good verbs and food vocab and they speak more quickly.

The 'animal and cultural' documentaries have a slightly slower and clearer pronunciation.

They are regular shows on TV. Youtube has a lot also.

I cannot recommend a particular TV show, but a couple of movies I've downloaded and have watched a couple of movies many times, such as "Like water for chocolate."

I have trouble understanding the Mexican tv shows and movies at this stage of my learning because Mexican Spanish (in my experience) is spoken quickly with what seems to be vowel reduction.

Hey, thanks for replying.

I will check out youtube for cooking shows, i would like to learn some food vocabulary and it would be a fun way to practice.
