ReplyDeleteWonderful Aribeth. I'm not watching this, but occasionally I check in with the recaps because I enjoy you all. This was VERY helpful for the occasional visitor.
ReplyDeleteAribeth - thank you for the list. I doubt I'll remember half of it, mostly because I have a hard time remembering names to begin with. Ack. So please, everyone, forgive me when I ask "who is XYZ?" ;-)
ReplyDeleteAribeth, thanks for this marvelous picture gallery and the nicknames :) I liked your nickname for Adriania lol. Also I think we will be calling Candelaria, Candi. It is so hard to type Candelaria lol. I think Vivi came up with the Candi nickname in a post :)
ReplyDeleteFeliz Ano Nuevo a Todos!
ReplyDeleteThanks to Aribeth, Elvira, Marta, and Madelaine for your fabulous recaps. And I love all the comments.
Aribeth - What an adorable list with pics. Imagine that, we have a Slutty Set-up Model (Kendra) and a Slutty McSlutterson (Nabila). Still hoping McSlutterson gets her just due like yesterday. I really want to see Nikki bitch-slap her.
Nabila=100 lbs. of crazy.

Oooh, Airbeth--Pictures with words. Thank you. Went back to your first epi recap where you reminded us of LVO. Gabriel Soto aside (just because he was depicting a weakish character), I loved it, especially Harry Geithner's PoPo Leonardo as well as Papa Leonardo. I taped it religiously just to watch during a decent time-frame.
ReplyDeleteCandi will be a funny name to attach to Anna Martin who portrayed Manuel's mother in Amor Real with such dignity--as well as other women in servant positions.
Anita - I cried when Manuel's mother in Amor Real died. It was so sad! It's the only time I ever cried when watching a telenovela.
ReplyDeletedoris--I cried when he first called her mama.
ReplyDeleteThanks for this Aribeth. As much as I enjoy all the nicknames that you guys are bestowing on the characters in this, I think that so far my favorite nicknamer so far has been Nikki with all of the various names she bestows upon Liliana and yet never really does seem to get it quite right... OK?
