For our last review of 2025, we check in on the pilot of Ciudad de Sombras (City of Shadows), the Spanish crime series based on the novel El Verdugo de Gaudí, set in Barcelona in 2010. The series opens with a public murder staged at a Gaudí landmark, pulling disgraced detective Milo back into the force while he’s still reeling from personal trauma and stuck with a new partner. On the podcast, we break down the hard-boiled tone, our crime-thriller comparisons, the show’s not-so-subtle promotion of Barcelona’s architecture and history, early reception, and our final rating.
