Envious

After a shattering breakup, Vicky Mori, nearly 40, decides to try dating again, expecting awkward first dates and quick fixes. Instead she ends up rethinking what love and happiness mean, with embarrassing missteps and plenty of dry humor. As Vicky meets potential partners and reconnects with family and friends, her choices push her to reassess old habits, priorities and the stories she tells herself about success and desire. The show mixes laugh-out-loud moments with quieter scenes, following Vicky as she learns to be honest about what she wants while building new friendships and confronting the fears that have kept her from moving forward. Her sister Caro and friends Lucila and Débora provide blunt advice and comic relief alongside her.

Envious premiered in 2024, led by Griselda Siciliani and Esteban Lamothe, with Pilar Gamboa, Violeta Urtizberea and Marina Bellati rounding out the main cast. The show was released as a television series in 2024 and centers on Siciliani's performance.

As of early 2024 the series hasn't reported major awards or high-profile nominations, though it has attracted attention from critics and viewers. Its cast performances, especially Siciliani's, have been singled out in reviews, and the show has a growing base of supporters praising its tone and realism.

While still new, Envious has sparked conversations about dating later in life and the pressures around relationship milestones. Fans have picked up on Vicky's offbeat humor and the show's mix of comedy and everyday awkwardness, sharing scenes online and discussing how it reflects changing expectations for women approaching 40.

Critics generally respond well to the show's blend of humor and drama, pointing to strong performances and naturalistic dialogue. Major themes include personal reinvention, ageing without shame, honesty in relationships and the importance of friendship. The tone is warm and funny, anchored by a lead who feels relatable and unpredictable.
