Money Heist viewers were eager to see how the show's new season would continue this year. After such a cliffhanger at the end of season three, Netflix viewers weren't sure how the show would progress with such huge stakes. Although Rio (played by Miguel Herran) and Tokyo (Ursula Corbero) were the main focusses of the show in season three, Berlin (Pedro Alonso) claimed some of the limelight this year.
