Globo’s Above Justice has delivered strong ratings following its premiere on Argentina’s free-to-air (FTA) channel Telefe.

The first episode of the series premiered on 9 April during Telefe’s prime time, becoming the most watched show of the day in Argentina.

Above Justice is continuing to see success in Latin America, having reached an average daily audience of 41 million viewers on Brazil’s broadcast TV and delivering strong ratings for Chile’s Mega.

The Globo production is also scheduled to premiere in other LATAM countries including Uruguay and Ecuador.

Nominated for the 2017 International Emmy Awards in two categories, the original series was also part of a special showcase presented in the latest edition of Berlinale, in Germany, where Globo revealed its new generation of series to the market.

With 16 episodes, Above Justice begins in 2009 with the arrest of four people with different origins and pasts. Seven years later, after paying their debts to society, they are released from prison and have to find a way to start over, with the plot going back and forth in time.
