Aquà no hay quien viva (roughly, "No one can live in peace here") is a Spanish dramedy/Sitcom set in an apartment building, calle Desengaño 21 ("Disillusionment Street"), in Madrid. The series focuses on the entire community: three apartment floors, with two apartments each. Plus, the doorkeeper's lodge in the ground floor, the business locale (most of the time a video rental club) and the attic. As the cast's lives crash with each other, Hilarity Ensues.The show ran for five seasons, from 2003 to 2006, totalling at 90 episodes (though the third season was so long, the DVD release split it in two and some consider the show to have six seasons). It became an instant and huge cultural phenomenon in Spain. It won numerous awards in its home country and was the third most watched show in Spain during the early years of the Turn of the Millennium. The popularity warranted eleven different remakes in other countries.Eventually the series ended up becoming a victim of some serious Executive Meddling that ended up causing Troubled Production, the departure of several actors over the years and ultimately its cancellation, although the screenwriters managed to write a definitive conclusion to the characters. A year later, the cast and crew teamed up again on a different network to make a Spiritual Successor: La que se avecina (a Pun that means "What's coming", albeit the word "avecina" is almost identical to "vecina", which means "female neighbor"). | |

Inexplicably Identical Individuals | |
| Aquà no hay quien viva / int_15f76026 | comment |
Inexplicably Identical Individuals: As the latest season of La que se avecina reveals that both shows take place in the same universe, many of the characters qualify. Also, both characters from this show and different characters portrayed by the same actors co-exist in the Spin-Off A Tortas Con La Vida. Emma Penella portrays Concha in both shows. Gemma Cuervo portrays Vicenta in both shows. Marivi Bilbao portrays Marisa in both shows. Ricardo Arroyo portrays Higinio in ANHQV and a character credited as major transporter (who might still be Higinio) in ATCLV. Amparo Pacheco portrays Amparo in ANHQV and BrÃgida in ATCLV. Creator Vanesa Romero portrays Ana "Inga" in ANHQV and Raquel (possibly Raquel Villanueva from LQSA) in ATCLV. | |

The Ghost: Paco's girlfriend, Lourdes. We mostly know about her from hearing other characters talk about her (when they do, chances are the conversation will include some snark about her alleged ugliness) and the one time she appears onscreen, on her wedding day with Paco, we don't get to see her face courtesy of the bride veil. | |

Platonic Prostitution | |
| Aquà no hay quien viva / int_49a2599d | comment |
Platonic Prostitution: Played for Laughs. On an episode, Mr. Oguma, Fernando's Japanese client, pays a visit to him and Mauri. When Oguma offers all his entourage — including them — to sleep with prostitutes, which he will pay for, Mauri only accepts after being warned by Oguma's interpreter that he would be offended by a refusal. So all Mauri and his prostitute do — other than a head-between-legs variation of the Fake-Out Make-Out when Oguma enters the room to see how things are going — is have a good time discussing recipes. | |

Honey Trap: Rafael tries to invoke it in a last-ditch attempt to sabotage his daughter LucÃa's wedding with Roberto, since he never really liked him. He hires a prostitute to lure Roberto out of his bachelor party and sleep with him so that he then can show the pictures of it to LucÃa. It doesn't work, as Roberto had already decided against attending the bachelor party, leaving his friends to hold it in his honor, and the prostitute ends up sleeping with Mariano, who said he was the groom just to score. The wedding goes off the rails anyway, as Roberto kissed Ana that night and Radio Patio finds out. | |

Book Dumb: When Emilio decides to take a shot at studying in college, he starts with José Miguel's school books and is puzzled by the fact that the unknown quantities in equations are represented with letters: that's mixing Language and Maths to him! He only passes the access test by cheating so blatantly that he has to capitalize on the professor not knowing his name to get in, and unsurprisingly ends up flunking out. | |

| Aquà no hay quien viva / int_5679208c | comment |
No Bisexuals: Except for Mauri, the major queer characters (Fernando, Diego, Bea and Ana) all used to be hetero before their coming-out and afterwards are constantly referred to as either gay or lesbian, with any possibility of them hooking up with someone of the opposite sex being treated as returning to the hetero camp and not a case of them being attracted to both genders. Mauri seems to openly reject the idea that there could be such a thing as bisexuality. | |

Citizenship Marriage | |
| Aquà no hay quien viva / int_60426489 | comment |
Citizenship Marriage: On an episode, Vicenta introduces Néstor, a suave Cuban man much younger than her, as her husband-to-be. When she reveals that Néstor is paying her €5,000 to marry her and get the citizenship, the whole thing descends into hilarity as other neighbors want that cash, with Néstor bringing in other migrants in the same situation as him to set up a multiple wedding. | |

Flying Under the Gaydar: Mauri isn't actually very flamboyant, but during the first season, he is constantly told by Fernando to watch out for his mannerisms, for fear of being outed. The couple also tried to pass as football fans so Armando (who already knew they were gay, as their bedroom is below his) wouldn't suspect. | |

His two children, Jose Miguel, average but gifted kid with a quick wit, and Natalia, sarcastic and deceivingly sweet, who has the looks to bribe guys by seducing them. | |

For instance, they referred to Carlos and Roberto as the "Baby Gays" the time they lived together in apartment 2-B. Occasionally, the neigbors fire back referring to them as "The Powerpuff Girls" or "Flora, Fauna and Merryweather" Nieves started using "Bolkshevik" as �lex's nickname after Isabel revealed that his father was not Andrés, but a Polish activist. | |

Put on a Bus | |
| Aquà no hay quien viva / int_754df088 | comment |
Put on a Bus: Several characters leave the series over the years, though it's worth noting that most of the cast continued through to the end. Fernando left Mauri's house at the end of Season 1 to work in London. Unlike most of the other cases cited here, he would make sporadic appearances visiting Mauri in Seasons 2 and 3, before rejoining the regular cast for the last two seasons. Armando and his kids leave the building at the end of the first season to live with his new fiancée. Paloma leaves the series in the season two finale under tragic circumstances, when she accidentally falls out of her apartment window during a fight with Isabel. She has been in a coma ever since and finally passes away off-screen in season five. In the 17th episode of the third season, Alicia leaves the building to live with her boyfriend Ricardo in New York. In the 28th episode of the third season, Nieves leaves the building because of the failure of her relationship with Andrés. She makes brief cameos in Seasons 4 and 5. In the 29th episode of the third season, Alex leaves the building to work as a valet in Ibiza. In the tenth episode of the fourth season, Andrés leaves the building to start a new life elsewhere. In the 13th episode of Season 4, Carlos leaves the building and checks into a psychiatric hospital to overcome his depression. After Andrés leaves her, Carmen leaves the building in the finale of Season 4 to live with her parents. Lucia and Roberto also leave the series in the finale of Season 4, but they go their separate ways: Lucia leaves the building to work at an NGO, Roberto returns to Puerto Banus to continue his work as a cartoonist. | |

Ready for Lovemaking: At a point of the series Emilio temporarily stops being the doorkeeper and as his replacement comes Amador, an old, soft-spoken man. Vicenta, Concha and Marisa all show interest in him, and the latter is the one who takes it the farthest: entering the doorkeeper's lodge (it doesn't even have a door, after all) and sneaking into Amador's bed in lingerie. The poor fellow quickly resigns and leaves the building, never to be seen again. | |

Never Mess with Granny: The trio from apartment 1-A can show some genuine badassery when the situation calls for it. On an episode when Concha was away on vacation, Marisa and Vicenta hired a caretaker through an ad in the newspaper. When said caretaker turns out to be a burglar who ties them up in bed and cuts off the house's phone line so they can't call the police, they manage to free themselves and it's him who wakes up tied up in bed the next morning. | |

When LucÃa learns about it and cuts off the cable, causing the neighbors to miss the final episode, Paco asks them for a lot of money and an emergency community meeting is held to pass a split contribution to pay him. Lucia is shocked by the neighbors' plan and immediately reveals to them that there is a major flaw in that plan, only to be completely ignored by them. | |

Juan orders Natalia to come out before he can count to five... but he resumes the count when she doesn't. At the end of the episode, the camera cuts back to Juan, whose count is now well past 500. Alicia appears again and offers him a sandwich out of pity. | |

Catchphrase | |
| Aquà no hay quien viva / int_b01abe4f | comment |
Catchphrase: Emilio's "¡Un poquito de por favor!" ("A little bit of please!"). Concha's "¡Váyase, señor Cuesta, váyase!" ("Leave, Mr. Cuesta, leave!"). Juan Cuesta's "This, our... [whatever he was talking about]". Belén occassionally finished her arguments with Emilo by telling him "¡Vete un poquito a la mierda!" (approximately "Go for a little while to the shit!", but a better idiomatic translation would be "Go fuck yourself a bit!") On one episode, when they needed passwords, they used their catch phrases. In the final season, when Higinio Heredia was named president of the community, Concha shouts in a neighbors meeting "Leave Mr. Heredia, leave!", promptly excusing herself saying that she only wanted to test how it sounded. Marisa and Vicenta quickly point out that it sounded much better with Cuesta. She says it again, but really meaning it, on the series finale (more on that in the Screw This, I'm Outta Here entry). | |

Yank the Dog's Chain: Juan Cuesta's victories are few, far between, and never lasting. When he finally fulfills his lifelong aspiration of being appointed head of studies at his school... turns out it's because the place is going to close down in the middle of the term and the headmaster needs someone with a certain gift of gab to explain it to the parents without making them too mad. When the neighbors file a Frivolous Lawsuit against him because he sucks at playing the piano and they want him to stop, the lawsuit is quickly dismissed, but the moment he gets home from court, ready to celebrate his victory, Isabel admits to him that she hates it too and outright threatens to throw herself out the window if he plays one more note. Juan gets the message. And the most egregious of them all: with the never-ending remodeling of his house finally completed, termites are found, the building's no longer safe, the neighbors have to leave and the show ends. | |

They send fake love letters from Amador to the three old women so they become much more forward with their advances, and seeing Marisa in lingerie in his bed is the breaking point for Amador, who promptly resigns and leaves. When the video club gang learns that José Miguel has a crush on a classmate, they start sending him fake love letters pretending to be her. When she learns about the incident, she agrees to pose as José Miguel's girlfriend in front of them. | |

Series Continuity Error: In season 2, when Mauri meets Bea's brother (who is a priest, and unaware that she's a lesbian) he hints that she's never even had a boyfriend before. But by season 4, Bea's ex-husband (whom she married before realizing she was a lesbian, and whom she's technically still married to because the divorce papers were never signed) shows up in a desperate attempt to reconcile with her. At first, Concha is unable to sell the apartment she's renting to Alicia and Belén because the actual owner after her husband's death is her son Armando. Later Belén is able to buy it from her without any intervention from Armando. | |

Dating What Daddy Hates: Throughout the series, Rafael shows contempt for two of LucÃa's three boyfriends: while he likes Carlos, he sees Roberto as a bad cartoonist and a good-for-nothing overall, and Yago and him hate each other's guts, being respectively a pro-environment activist and the CEO of a shady real estate developing company. | |

O.O.C. Is Serious Business: During a Vacation Episode in the last season, Isabel, Juan, Natalia and Yago go on holiday to the Canary Islands, leaving Josemi and Pablo alone at the house. When Isabel calls them to see how things are going, her stepson finishing the call with a rare "I love you" makes her think something's off. And indeed it is: the stepbrothers are throwing a party and things start going off the rails soon after. | |

Exact Words: When he first meets Belén, Pedro introduces himself as an accountant. Soon after, Belén goes to the company Pedro works in for a job interview... and is surprised to find him in the boss's office. It's then explained that while he indeed is the accountant, he did not mention that he is also the owner and does various other jobs in the company. When Rafael moves to apartment 3-A after his daughter LucÃa leaves in the least season, he learns that there is no elevator and offers to pay for one. However, when the new elevator is installed, it turns out that it needs a key to run, the only copy of which is in Rafael's possession. He promptly clarifies that, while he said he would pay for the elevator (and did), he never said it would be for everyone. | |

The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything | |
| Aquà no hay quien viva / int_ee7ed46e | comment |
The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: With the exceptions of Emilio and Paco, both of whom worked inside the building, most characters were only seen at work if it was relevant to the plot in some capacity. Case in point: Roberto was a cartoonist, and although his drawing table was seen in the background of his apartment, he seemed to hardly ever actually use it. | |

Glad I Thought of It: After LucÃa invites the neighbors to her wedding and gives them a list of very expensive gifts, Gregorio, the administrator, suggests choosing one gift and splitting the expenses. Juan Cuesta tells him to shut up because the issue is outside of his responsibilities, only to immediately suggest the exact same thing. | |

Product Placement: Advertising would every once in a while be blatantly shoehorned into the show. For example, the later seasons had Juan Cuesta complaining repeatedly and at length over his Grand Prix magazine being stolen from the mailbox. | |

All Lesbians Want Kids: Bea, a lesbian, is inseminated with Mauri's sperm. Later on, Ana tries to do the same with Fernando, but Mariano learns about it and steals Fernando's sperm to replace it with his own, hoping to get a child that has "her Nordic beauty and his metrosexual intellect." It doesn't work, as Mariano's sperm is pretty much sterile, and Ana decides to forget about pregnancy when learning about the whole thing. | |

Running Gag | |
| Aquà no hay quien viva / int_f9f2c33 | comment |
Running Gag: Just to cite a few: Whenever Juan Cuesta mentions the name of his "master and mentor", the late former community president Bartolomé Méndez Zuloaga, Marisa will remind everyone within earshot that she had sex with him. That bald man who talks very fast and won't stop changing jobs. If Belén and Emilio are bickering, a Gilligan Cut to them smoking post-intercourse cigarettes is very likely. Rafael trying to make his stoic butler laugh, and failing miserably every time. Vicenta annoying Marisa by reminding her that her husband Manolo left her. Manolo later reemerges and dumps Vicenta after a really brief relationship, which allows Marisa to get some measure of revenge. | |

Emilio and Mariano in the doorkeeper's lodge: Emilio is the overworked doorkeeper, often taken for granted and abused by the community. He has an on-again-off-again relationship with Belén. His father, Mariano, is a nasty and lazy man who is always devising dishonest schemes. After making some recurring appearances, he is kicked out of the house by his wife in the second half of Season 1 and moves in with Emilio, much to his son's displeasure. | |
