Elite Season 6: Post Watching Thoughts and Season Ranking List (SPOILERS)

After Samuel’s death in season 5 (and therefore the death of my favorite ship) I honestly wasn’t sure if I would continue with the show. I decided to give it a shot since I had some free time, and I’m actually glad that I did. I definitely think season 6 was the best of the post season 3 offerings. It got back to more of the core of what made the show popular. I also liked that the mystery wasn’t as obvious as the previous two seasons. I really loved the increase in friendship scenes as well. It was great to see everyone hanging out and supporting Isadora. So here are my initial thoughts, I’ll probably add on to this after having more time to think it through. Feel free to let me know your thoughts on this season and your season rankings as well!

I wanted Samuel’s death to have more of an impact. He was the main character since the beginning of the show, and they kinda just brushed past it. I wanted to see a funeral, his friends having a memorial for him, or something. I do think the fact that all the original characters/his friends were gone and no longer in the show impacted that choice, but I still wish it was handled differently (and didn’t happen at all). Also the fact that his killer was freed at the end was so upsetting, that man killed someone and he should pay for his crimes, not get his freedom back. Especially since Ari had finally gotten to a place to accept that what her father did was on purpose and not an accident, that if he had gotten Samuel help then he may still have been alive. Why does every character in this show get away with their crimes? Polo got away with killing Marina, Guzman got away with killing Armando, and Benjamin gets away with killing Samuel. No one is ever held responsible.

Isadora has taken the spot of my favorite character this season. I was kinda neutral on her character last season, but the same thing happened with Cayetana (I wasn’t her biggest fan in seasons 2-3, but loved her and her development in seasons 4-5. She became my favorite post Carla character). I think she also got the best storyline and character development this season as well. I really wanted her to get justice and revenge on the guys who hurt her and I’m glad that in the end she did. I also really like her friendship with Iván and hope we continue to see more of it next season. While this show doesn’t have the best track record with relationships (only one couple has ended up happy and together so far throughout the entire series) I did like her budding relationship with Didac and want to see more of it next season. I hope that in season 7 she gets to be happy, because she’s gone through a lot in seasons 5-6 and deserves it.

The final scene. I was surprised that they ended the season on an actual in the moment cliffhanger. I’m guessing that if anyone ends up getting killed it will be Didac’s brother Pau. If someone gets shot but survives, then I could see Didac being an option as well. It could technically also be some random student getting hit as well, since it happened in the school parking lot area. From what we heard/saw this season it seems like whatever business Pau is involved in is probably shady and not on the up and up, and likely the cause of this drive by shooting. Especially with Isadora’s mom originally meeting with him to discuss business, but then had him escorted/kicked out by security and fired Didac due to them being related. Whatever he was proposing she clearly wasn’t a fan of. It couldn’t just be that he was a potential competitor either, since she would have know that when agreeing to meet and talk business.

Lingering Questions/Thoughts:

• Can Iván and Isadora move in together? Iván is now all alone, while Isadora has been alone her whole life. I think them moving in together would be good and beneficial for both of them. I’m also a big fan of the found family trope.

• Why was no one bothered/upset about living or spending time at the house where Samuel was literally murdered? That was your classmate/friend/boyfriend and you’re all totally cool spending everyday and night at his murder site. Umm no, that should 100% bother all of them and they should have moved.

• Will Sara and Raul get away with their crime? Will being around Iván at school everyday lead to her feeling guilty and confess that she was the one driving the car? I don’t really see Raul admitting to anything though, he’d be more likely to put the entire blame/coverup on Sara.

• Who is responsible for the drive by shooting and did anyone get hurt or killed?

• How are they going to write Omar back into the show as a main character while making sure it makes sense to the plot? He won’t be back there to get revenge for Samuel’s death, since none of the Blanco’s are in season 7. He’s also no longer a student, so he wouldn’t be with the rest of the characters at school. He could get Cayetana’s old job as a cleaner there, or possibly work at Isadora’s club I guess.

Carla and Samuel deserved better...

If you think I’m talking about the ship you better keep scrolling 💀 Sorry, I’m not here for Samuel huffing and puffing about Polo running around the school as a free killer but simping for Carla’s rich white girl ass, as if that bitch didn’t send his brother iPad Nano to jail...😭 Christian’s Himbo ass needs to come back and woop Samuel’s ass for falling for Carla 😳 After Marina he didn’t learn about toxic rich girls??👎

RANT 😤📝

Okay here me out ! This rant isn’t about Carmuel necessarily but their storylines in s3 and lack of development.

Elite followed the Clay Jensen archetype when writing Samuel because his character follows the basic white boy protagonist archetype...no originality at all! He wants justice for the girl he was in love with yadayada 🥱 Not much depth was given to him unfortunately to make him interesting, but that was a flaw given to most of the characters tbh. Samuel was probably the strongest in s2 but s3 didn’t give him much to do. s3 didn’t give Carla any depth too 😐 Them as a dynamic was wasted unfortunately.

Samuel

If Samuel was more so focused on getting justice or revenge for the collapse of his old public school that arc would tie him close with Marina’s being that in s1 Marina’s original motives were to expose her father and Carla’s father for their corruption and criminal activities that ultimately caused the ruin of Samuel, Nadia, Omar and Christian’s public school. That was justice deserved...I could care less about Nano going to jail 🥱 🤣 The show missed an opportunity on continuing the stolen red watch plot line that symbolised a lot of importance in s1 and it tied the arc’s of Carla, Nano and Marina together. That brings me to Carla...

Carla

One of the reasons the show messed up was the victimisation of Carla. She’s this strong, quick thinking young girl who puts her family before anything. She had people framed for murder,never defended her ex boyfriend after his “accident” instrumented by her father and was complicit to her father’s corruption. Despite her characteristics she fell for Samuel and felt bad about his disappearance, causing her to confess to Marina’s murder. It was kind of out of character considering the person Carla was but you can argue she didn’t want the bloodshed to continue. That being said remember when Carla was rebellious??? In s3 she’s this submissive Daddy’s girl, who still abides to his supremacy. She doesn’t change much, she’s just victimised even more.🥱 She doesn’t face much consequences for her actions, nor is she properly called out on them.

What should of happened for Samuel and Carla storylines

In a perfect world Carla would actually develop and grow out of the sex-symbol rich girl the writers held her to. Unfortunately her s3 storyline didn’t give her a lot of storytelling 🥱 What I WISHED that happened in s3 was Carla EXPOSING and freeing her self from her father. If Samuel continued Marina’s work in exposing Carla and Marina’s fathers corruption and Carla joined him, Samuel and Carla would:

Both be given interesting arcs because wtf were their s3 storylines 💀😐🥱

Carla would develop and free herself from her toxic, criminal father and try to learn from her actions.

Samuel would get the justice he so badly wanted but this time to his old public school, than just avenging Marina and Nano.

The watch and it’s information exposing the elite’s corruption plotline in S1 would have a resolution.

Carla’s father would be investigated and have a chance to rot in jail!

Carla and Samuel would work as a dynamic because in s2 they were tied together and this would put a resolution to their relationship.

Carla and Samuel would get a perspective into each other’s world, coming from two different socioeconomic environments despite fighting the same cause. For example Samuel would understand that justice is not so easy when dealing with corrupt people like Theodore💀 and Carla would see what her father’s actions caused and fight against him.

We wouldn’t have to watch Carla x Yeray and Rebe x Samuel struggle “relationships” 🤦‍♂️

Thank you for coming to my TED TALK 😘🙏
