TWO OF THE biggest Latin American television shows of recent years have depicted Colombia. One, “Narcos” (2015-17), showed the country at its worst: Netflix’s bilingual drama chronicled how Pablo Escobar became “the king of cocaine”. Undeterred by subtitles, viewers in 52 countries watched as the drug baron made mountains of blow and blew up his enemies. Parrot Analytics, a data firm, says that “Narcos” is one of the top 60 most-streamed series of the past decade. It even sparked a “narco-tourism” boom in Escobar’s home city of Medellín.
