Física o Química: Complete Series Guide (2008–2011) Física o Química (often abbreviated FoQ ) is a Spanish teen drama television series that aired on Antena 3 for 7 seasons from February 4, 2008, to June 13, 2011. Created by Carlos Montero, the show became a cultural phenomenon for its raw, unflinching portrayal of adolescence, tackling taboo subjects long before they were mainstream on Spanish television.
