TV series on drug trafficking have been subject of debate due their contents; however, there are no studies about the Mexican audience's reception of them. This qualitative research seeks to know the opinion of the Mexican youth regarding this type of series. It is concluded that viewers receive entertainment and information bonuses, while also infringing criticism on governmental institutions.
