Servir y proteger is a Spanish police drama soap opera produced by Plano a Plano for Televisión Española. The series premiered on La1 on 24 April 2017.[1] It tells the daily routine of a CNP police station on Madrid.
The first season was broadcast from 24 April 2017 to 15 February 2018 and the soap opera was renewed in late 2017 for a second season[2] which started on February 16. It was renewed for a third season in May 2018.[3] A fourth season was approved in June 2019. It was renewed for a fifth season in August 2020. A sixth season was approved in June 2021. A seventh season was approved in May 2022. In September 2022, TVE announced that this season would be its last, and the series finale took place on 16 January 2023.[4]
The series is about the day to day of a police station in a neighbourhood south of Madrid. The cases investigated by police officers are less serious offenses, although they have a great impact on the lives of those affected: small conflicts of a social nature, with immigrants, evictions, or violence against women. With the police station as the centre of the plot, it shows the characters, their problems, anxieties, hopes and joys.[5]
