The House of Flowers is a Mexican black-comedy television series that premiered on Netflix in 2018. The show became an instant hit with both Mexican and international audiences because of its combination of dark humor and family drama. It stars Cecilia Suárez as the matriarch of the de la Mora family.

The storyline revolves around the De La Mora family, who owns a successful flower business that has run for decades. They are seen as an affluent, perfectly poised family on the surface, but everything isn't as it seems as a web of secrets, lies, and bizarre situations ensues. The series takes the audience on an unexpected and occasionally vulgar journey through the family's darkest secrets as each member of the de la Mora clan tries to come to terms with their past.

With the unexpected death of their patriarch, family members come together for the funeral, and this becomes the main event of the series. Everything starts to come apart when it's revealed that the patriarch had a mistress and a child outside of his marriage. Upon the discovery of this, the incestuous relationships between siblings and drug addiction, sabotaging the family business and numerous secrets start to threaten the future of the family business.

The unraveling of the family's carefully constructed persona leads to a showdown between the different family members, and everyone has to confront their past behavior and face the consequences of their actions. The audience is taken on an incredible journey as Cecila Suarez's character, Paulina, leads the way to uncover the deep-seated secrets that go way back in time. Her relationship with her siblings is at the heart of the show, but there is also humor and satire as we see the dissection of the traditional 'perfect' Mexican family.

The central storyline is about the untangling of the secrets that have bound them together for years, and the revelations are all darkly humorous. This series moves season by season, with each season capped off with a major cliffhanger, making the audience eager to watch the next season as the story continues to unfold.

One of the best aspects of The House of Flowers is the way the show balances its zaniness with its emotional impact. Behind the crazy antics and over-the-top dramatics of the show, it has a lot of heart as characters learn to come to terms with their past and grapple with feelings of insecurity, love, and belonging.

The House of Flowers deals with various issues faced by Mexican society, such as social class, gender, and sexuality, but it also touches on universal themes such as family, addiction, and betrayal while delivering a great sense of humor. The show explores different sexual identities, including homosexuality and transsexuality, which are rarely touched upon in the Latin American context.

The series also boasts an outstanding cast, with Cecilia Suarez being the standout. Her role in the show is unforgettable, and she brought a lot of depth to her character, portraying the character of Paulina as both fierce and vulnerable. The other actors involved in the show played their roles with excellence, bringing their characters to life with a great sense of comedic timing.

In conclusion, The House of Flowers is one of the most original, cleverly plotted, and entertaining comedy-dramas that Netflix has ever produced. It delivers a unique blend of dark humor, family drama, and social commentary that keeps the audience hooked season after season. So if anyone is looking for something that is both funny and thought-provoking, The House of Flowers is definitely worth watching.

The House of Flowers is a series that ran for 3 seasons (33 episodes) between August 10, 2018 and on Netflix
