This is Televisa's telenovela, you can't exactly expect anything original or out of the ordinary from them.

Very true.

This is actually remake of "Tu o Nadie" with Lucia Mendez. In 1995. Televisa did a remake called "Acapulco, cuerpo y alma" with Patricia Manterola and Saul Lisazo (good telenovela IMO). And this is the third version with Jacqueline Bracamontes (love her :wub:) and William Levy.

    The format could work in the hands of the right people. IMO, it would live or die in promotion (and writing of course.)

    Anyone in particular?

    True. I totally forgot about Acapulco Bay.

    :D

    Mark... Do you speak Spanish?

    Any way for you to watch Univision/Telemundo?

    Honestly? No. I'm convinced that whoever "the one" is, they aren't currently working in the genre.

    I think Mexican telenovelas are way too overdramatic, over the top and outdated on social themes (Mexico compared to most latin american countries is still way too conservative) for my taste plus i cannot relate to their society the way i do with other latin american countries. They have always been like that but you had back then great acting and a good story, i am talking about late 70s and most of the 80s, but now the new generation of these serials, some of them produced in Miami, have very bad acting and beautiful young bodies that think they can act. I do not watch them at all.

    I think the best telenovelas are produced in Argentina and Venezuela. The last one i watched was Amor en Custodia produced in Argentina, loved it.

    Spain is producing a very succesful soap called Amar en tiempos Revueltos, it is a daily serial based on the spanish civil war and a love story during that difficult time.
