20 years after the premiere of the successful Antena 3 series, Isabel Ordaz has confessed what they have in common with ‘La herbes’
There is no one living here It is one of the Spanish series that marked an entire generation, and continues to do so 20 years after its premiere. “How cute this girl always is” or “a little please” are some of the phrases that have remained in the memory of Spanish society, but also its characters. Emilio (Fernando Tejero), Belén (Malena Alterio), Juan Cuesta (José Luis Gil), La herbas (Isabel Ordaz) or Paloma (Loles León) are remembered by viewers.
For this reason, it is not surprising that they continue to ask the majority of actors and actresses about their time in There is no one living here. In fact, a few weeks ago, Isabel Ordaz told an unknown detail about her character from The Herbs in the successful series created by Laura and Alberto Caballero.
Isabel visited the podcast human animals to talk about his new movie The queen of the Conventbut he also had time to comment on his time at There is no one living here and confess what he has in common with the remembered character from The Herbs. “I have nothing to do with her and I have many things to do with her,” the actress begins, highlighting that she is “a woman who aspires to peace, like her.”
“She was an apparently chaotic woman, apparently very free, clueless, who always: ‘Oops, oops. I don’t want to know anything about conflicts.’ From that perspective I think there are things about me in it.“, she acknowledges in the podcast. However, and despite the fact that there are things about her in the character, Isabel surprised by revealing what she had paid “a lot of attention to” to form The Herbs.
“From a marsupial I composed The Herbs“says Isabel, stating that she took the animal as a “reference.” “It’s like they wait, watch and react,” she says. In addition, Ordaz has recognized that it is a process in which “you feed yourself” and that “the characters they reveal themselves to the extent of what they do”, just as in the theater.
The big difference between ‘No one lives here’ and ‘The one that is coming’
Furthermore, Isabel has also spoken about the differences between There is no one living here and The one that is coming. Although “the other series is having and has been very successful”, “they are already beginning to look too much for the result of comedy in the phrase, and it doesn’t seem to me that it is there” since, in that case, “the characters then disappear” .
“Personally, I think that on television the situation comedy, the ‘sitcom’ has died. “You don’t work on the structure of the scene, which is the situation as its name indicates, but you go to this hasty thing of the grace of the phrase,” he says. Some words that follow the same line as what he already said in August , when he highlighted that “witty kills comedy.”
Because the presenter will highlight a characteristic element of There is no one living here, Isabel has stated that the reverse shot “is wonderful” and was used a lot in the successful series. “That’s comedy. Comedy is not about saying a phrase, making it funny, and that’s it.“says the actress, at the same time pointing out that she likes “expression.” “Comedy that goes from the bottom up because it has a background,” she says.
