Factoria de Ficcion

Factoria de Ficcion is Spain's go-to channel for reruns that don't demand your full attention. The daytime block is a shuffle of domestic sitcoms, think 'La que se avecina' reruns, 'Aída' marathons, and the occasional 'Friends' block. It's not ambitious programming. But that's the point. The channel leans into nostalgia for Spanish television from the 2000s and early 2010s, when these shows were ratings giants. Evening scheduling repeats the same episodes across the week, so you can drop in at any point and not feel lost. Production values are low, but the charm is in the writing and the actors. If you want to understand modern Spanish pop culture, this is the archive. Commercial breaks are frequent, though, and the same adverts cycle every 20 minutes. To watch Factoria de Ficcion online, you'll need a Spanish IP, but the live stream gives you that communal feeling of flipping through channels in Madrid. For Entertainment tv Spain, it's the closest thing to a time capsule.
