Gancho Thursday Oct. 22, '09 Oh No, Oh Yes, Oh Dear......

Carlos
We've noted Paula's proclivity toward weaponry and she certainly didn't disappoint last night!
I totally agree Carlos, this was simply great. Was Rolu being pushed down the aisle by Ximena a foreshadowing of things to come?
Is Ivan moving in with Beto?
I'm repelled and entranced with Loriloca in equal measures. What will she do next??
Diana in MA
My enjoyment of the Yucatan romantic scenes was dampened (no pun intended) by knowing from the previews that Connie was going to be named "adoptive mother" and that the wedding plans would go down the tubes.
Diana, you and Carlos have "the secret to life" ...enjoy it now and trust that the icky stuff will be resolved later...somehow,some way.
+ + +
By the way, did anyone else notice...and worry...that Loriloca's whip lashes were coming dangerously close to Oscar's family jewels. Ouch!
I'm really enjoying Cris and Paula too - polar opposites but somehow, they make it work.
I can't recall any show I've ever looked forward to watching as much as this. Needless to say, the recaps and comments are another highlight of my day. I'd tell myself to get a life, but I actually do have one but this makes it so much more enjoyable. :)
Diana
Coni is just so envious of moni it's painful to watch! She's got the hots for beto so why should she care! I'm going to go back and watch Ximea and rolu again I didn't see that part!
thanks for recappers
rebecca
So anyway I haven't even seen this and have no idea what happened so I'm pretty useless anyway. Hope you all enjoyed!!!
- Moni and Mau frolicked in the water of an underground cave. Since he had proposed, and she accepted, and we saw her bra floating away, we may have had "criterion behavior"! Also, Mau said they'd buy the wedding dress there in Merida, and have the wedding as soon as they got back.
Paula and Gabi both think that Oscar, being a lawyer, will help get Estrella out of jail (yeah, right).
Luisa told Aldo that Katia took the pictures, causing Terry to feel guilty that she wrongfully kicked out Ivan.
The judge gave Connie custody, and she gave him a check. Later, Connie told the kids they had a few days reprieve (but didn't mention the custody), but they had to stay at her house, which they grudgingly agreed to do.
In jail, Estrella told Paula she doesn't feel that bad, since she's always been the prisoner of one thing or another anyway.
When Lorenza was whipping Oscar, tied to the bed, he had a request. She said "wet the whip?". No, he wanted her to occupy Sal, so she agreed to pretend she'd stop taking her pills.
Ivan is bunking with Beto. Beto's sort of happy about Mau's custody troubles, Ivan's not, be he needs a place to stay.
Paula wanted to stay with Estrella. Cris wouldn't let her, so she figured if she committed a crime, they'd jail her. She tasered Cris and another guy - it worked - she's locked up.
Lorenza is on a bridge threatening to do something drastic, which causes Sal to come running.
At Connie's, Katia admitted to Aldo that Connie actually told her to take the sexy pictures of Luisa. Ahah!
Sorry you're having computer and DVR recording problems. When it rains it pours!

And Judy if you didn't see my last comment yesterday, I left a link especially for you and Emilia regarding your chicken conversation.
Kris, once again have a great trip.
Carlos
What can I say? Clearly I'm the recipient of some serious "wuss"genes.
Or else, it was all a big joke and then what can I say? I clearly am the recipient of some "credulous goober" genes.
Carlos I read the link and I was impressed by Mike, 18 months is such a long time to live for a rooster with those conditions.
Jarocha.
Carlos
But just reading it,cold, have to admit I really got the blues.
Yes, Julia, there was "criterion behavior" on both Gancho and Sortilegio this week. Moni and Mau were definitely the PG 7 pm version, but sweet, sexy and romantic nevertheless.
Boo to Tano for being such a self-righteous prig on his visit to Estrella in jail.
Carlos
Carla Estrada has always been daring with love scenes. I remember back in 1994, when she made her first novela de época: "Alóndra", she wanted to keep some scorching scenes between the lead and her co-star and also keep the original story as it was since the female lead was involved in a love triangle and she had sex with both of her suitors (at different times of course). Televisa was much more uptight back then and put the novela at 10:00 pm with a warning that the story was only for adults. The actress that played the lead, Ana Colchero, said that Carla fought alot with the network for that and she was surprised that she got what she wanted because just the year before when she had worked on Corazón Salvaje (playing Aimeé) she had to tape a love scene with Eduardo Palomo with the bedsheet up to their necks.
Jarocha

Carlos, mi vida, mi hermano de alma...we see things so differently! Como puede ser!!? I thought Tano was sweet to come by and see how Estrella was doing, at the request of Aldo, by the way. And I thought he was just wistful, rather than self-righteous, when he spoke about the future he had envisaged for himself and Estrella.
See how we womenfolk cut the men slack when we like 'em? Good thing, eh?
Once again, sorry about Mike. I have to admit when I watched the show, the Mike segment made me queasily uncomfortable, but absolutely fascinated.
I'll admit to you that I don't eat chicken and I think it is because as a small child on the farm, the chickens that roamed free in the yard were my people. Imagine the trauma of seeing your friends with names no less, slaughtered for the common good. Whoa! I've never eaten chicken.

Glad chickens are your friends and that you don't eat them. Take that! Colonel Sanders. I was always amazed my mom could eat lamb chops after weeping and running desperately after the cart that carried off her little lamb to market.
As adults, I suspect we've buried lots of genuine feeling and compassion under the "hey-that's how it is" wisdom? of the big people who raised us.
Anyway, thanks amigo. Always interesting, thesse discussions.
Jarocha
Judy and Jarocha, When you talk about Mexican food Jarocha I'm always reminded of a PBS cooking show, only on for a very short time, hosted by a beautiful woman from Vera Cruz who extolled the virtues, including health benefits of...rendered pork lard. It was love at first rendering.
Carlos
Actually I think Tano is very attractive...yeah, go figure..so I'm always giving him the benefit of the doubt.
Beto is great as a larger than life character, but in real life he'd be a problemj!
I love Chattanooga. I went there for a medical meeting and fell in love with the city and the people.
Carlos
Hombre, I also saw Mau's shorts floating free. Ooh la la! Aha, I see Julia noticed that as well. I also noticed that the accompanying music was horribly cut and edited which leads me to believe that some essential scenes may have been edited as well. I think I might have to download this episode and watch it in it's entirety.
Guanajuato was fantastic, it's an absolutely lovely and fun town-type city. I highly recommend it as a destination. After last night Merida is next on my list.
Much thanks to Kris and Judy for filling in while I was gone.
Kris, have a great trip to Mexico!
BTW, I didn't really remember everything - I took some notes, knowing that Sylvia was away.
