Did You Know?, Narcos, Netflix, True Crime
Is Narcos a true story? How much of it is real? Questions of the Netflix original series' veracity have intrigued viewers since its debut, thanks in large part to a steady stream of realistic, but fictional portrayals of criminal enterprise. But Narcos, unlike The Wire or Breaking Bad, doesn't just draw inspiration from real-life–it gets almost all of its material from actual events and actual people, and manages to weave its elements together to depict the chaos of Pablo Escobar's reign as leader of the Colombian cocaine trade.
