First released on the 15th of October 2018, Elite is most certainly one of those oddly satisfying and binge-worthy curiosities. This Spanish drama thriller web series, created by Carlos Montero and Darío Madrona, managed to set a new standard for how a high school drama series should be.
Plot
Over twenty million Netflix users binge-watched season one of Elite just within the very first month of release. Consequently, the hype for the show has only increased more.
At the beginning of the show, we find out about Marina’s murder at the Spanish high school Las Encinas. Then the series cuts between scenes before the death took place and present police interrogations with classmates to find out who did it. In season two-three new characters are added, and the drama is about the wrongful and misleading arrest of Nano.
When Will It Air

Netflix has confirmed that season three will release in March 2020, which is much earlier than season one and two.
