History Series / ElCaso

** Jesús immediately suspects that Garcés did not kill himelf after leaving prison. His suspicions are confirmed the episode after.

* BlackSheep: Clara. At least according to López-Dóriga, who is none too happy about her daughter being a journalist, let alone working in the newspaper that gives the most headaches to his boss.

* WeUsedToBeFriends: Jesús and Toño were friends when Jesús' girlfriend was killed. They both became cops, but Jesús left the force, implicitely over his doubts regarding Garcés' conviction.

The series is set in the 1960s Spain, and its main characters are the editors of weekly newspaper El Caso (which actually existed in RealLife from 1952 to 1997), who aside from reporting, also investigate on their own the crimes they cover (needless to say, this gets them in trouble more than once with the [[UsefulNotes/FranciscoFranco Francoist]] censorship and police). The main duo is the one formed by veteran editor (and former policeman) Jesús Expósito and newcomer Clara López.

* RealityEnsues: Clara saves a young woman from an insane asylum that seems sane compared to the other immates. Almost as soon as they are out, she has a mental episode [[spoiler: and kills herself.]]

* DiplomaticImpunity: The American air base in the first episode is American territory, so Spanish LE need not apply. Not that LE is any eager to investigate what the Americans do when they are out of the base anyway.

* BigBad: "The Rosary Killer", who murdered Jesús' girlfriend twenty years ago in one of the crimes Pepe Garcés was wrongfully imprisoned for. Jesús is still determined to uncover his identity.

* DrivenToSuicide: Amelia, the asylum patient from episode 2.

* BigBad / TheFaceless: "The Killer of the Rosary", who murdered Jesús' girlfriend twenty years ago in one of the crimes Pepe Garcés was wrongfully imprisoned for. Jesús is still determined to uncover his identity.

* DirtyCop: Toño Camacho, sometimes showing shades of RabidCop as well.

* TwoGirlsToATeam: Clara and Marga are the sole female editors of El Caso.

* BigBad: "The Killer of the Rosary", who murdered Jesús' girlfriend twenty years ago in one of the crimes Pepe Garcés was wrongfully imprisoned for. Jesús is still determined to uncover his identity.

* FlyingUnderTheGaydar: Clara's husband, Gerardo. He actually passes off as a straight man the first time we see him... until Clara surprises him cheating on her with a man at the end of the first episode.

* RunningGag:

* RippedFromTheHeadlines: Several of the cases shown in the series are based on actual murders the real-life El Caso reported about.
