A newly-released Spanish drama has got Netflix viewers in a chokehold, so much so that they are demanding 'more episodes'.
Starring the likes of Clara Galle, Nira Osahia, and Agustín Della Corte, the TV series has certainly made a splash on Netflix with a few of its NSFW scenes.
It's not the only one either, as one film that's '80 per cent sex' has also left subscribers a bit hot under the collar, too.

However, with 'everyone just 'f**king' in the first episode alone, this series could be a strong contender for the steamiest show you'll see all year.
The show made its Netflix debut on June 20 and is set at the fictional Pirineos Center of High Performance, a training school for young athletes in Spain as a doping scandal threatens to expose everyone's ambition to be the best of the best.
Over on the Netflix Bangers Facebook group, viewers couldn't get enough of Olympo as one person wrote: "I wish there were more episodes it was good," while a second simply said: "Love it."

Meanwhile, someone else penned on Reddit that 'Spain really does make the best “teen drama” shows'. And another on IMDb wrote: "This show did SUCH a good job showing how fragile and brutal sports can be-not just in artistic/synchronized swimming (which btw I think is the hardest and most underrated sport ever), but in rugby, cycling, athletics, literally everything."
Another element that was particularly praised was the inclusion of LGBTQ+ storylines, particularly between Roque (Agustin Della Corte) and two of his teammates, as one person said they loved how Netflix 'generally include gay storylines in most of their productions'.
However, the intense sex scenes have been a bit too much for some.

One person penned on Twitter that the series is 'way too intense', while another added: "Episode 1 of #OlympoNetflix and everyone is just f******."
While some have called for more, critical reviews have certainly been mixed for the Spanish drama, largely revolving around its plot and characters, who some found 'unlikeable that it becomes hard to root for them', TV Fanatics said.
However, others had nothing but praise for Olympo. Writing for Collider, Samuel R. Murrian said: "Netflix's young adult sports drama series Olympo is an unexpected, highly bingeable summer treat that's likely to appeal to a wide audience, even those who might not consider themselves fans of the sports genre."
As for its 'unlikeable' characters, Archi Sengupta from LeisureByte.com argues that is its appeal, adding: "Olympo's problem is all of the people are terrible and thoroughly unlikeable. But I'd be lying if I said that it's not bingeable."

You can make your mind up for yourself as Olympo is available to stream on Netflix right now.
