The first season of Narcos Mexico follows the story of Miguel Ángel Félix Gallardo (played by Wagner Moura), a former Mexican police officer turned drug lord who becomes the leader of the Guadalajara cartel. The show begins with Félix Gallardo’s rise to power, as he builds his empire and establishes himself as a major player in the Mexican drug trade.

One of the strengths of Narcos Mexico is its complex and well-developed characters. Miguel Ángel Félix Gallardo is a fascinating and nuanced character, played brilliantly by Wagner Moura. He’s a charismatic leader who is both ruthless and calculating, but also has a certain charm that makes him hard to dislike.

Narcos Mexico explores several themes, including the rise of the Mexican drug trade, the corruption and violence that accompanied it, and the efforts of law enforcement to take down the cartels.
