Beneath the Netflix blizzard: Internet users turn on the sexy firemen of this Mexican telenovela

Available from August 17 on Netflix, Sous la ember is the platform’s new “caliente” sensation. Gradually climbing to the top of the viewership charts to reach the first place, this Mexican series found its audience, which did not hesitate with the number of episodes: 39 in total!

This contemporary telenovela was created by José Ignacio Valenzuela, a subject matter expert to whom we owe Who Killed Sarah? which also became a hit on Netflix. For his new production, the Chilean showrunner offers a new story of murder and pretense.

Sous la braise (High Heat in the English version and Donde Hubo Fuego in the original version) tells the story of Poncho Quiroga, a stripper who becomes a fireman and trains in the barracks run by Artemio Roman. The same Kazar was connected to the murder of his twin brother Daniel, who was a journalist and was found murdered.

At the same time, Ricardo Urzua is released from the prison he was sentenced to twenty-five years earlier. Although he always claimed his innocence, public opinion and the authorities considered him the “Reynosa Executioner”. Now free, this ex-firefighter wants to find his sons who never knew him, but also clear his honor by becoming the new commander of the barracks.

So Poncho finds himself in a downward spiral between romantic failures, family problems and a serial killer investigation. And if we add a little sexy firemen, the Sous la ember recipe broke Netflix subscribers, who did not hesitate to share their fiery feelings on social networks.
