La Gata #93 Friday 1/9/15 La... Oh who am I kidding? There are just no words.
Yes, the foot art is ridiculously annoying, distracting and ugly. So is Pablo. As Mariano noted, he accomplished NOTHING with the lawyer. Pablo does get a point for suggesting a DNA test. Mariano gets the dumbass award for scoffing at the idea. That only happens when the case goes to court, he says. I want to try hash out an agreement before it comes to that, he says. WTF? I say. They don't even finish this line of thought before Pablo veers off into a conversation about Virginia.
Virginia and Esme gush over the wedding dress. Virginia just wants a family. A united family.No anvil sounds. Almost a disappointment until I realize they really only use the anvil sound for totally stupid stuff.
The back of Juan Garza's head tells Garabato that he parents did not abandon him. Juan Garza and Garabato have suffered and the people who are responsible need to pay. No, we don't know who is behind all this. Ms. Latoodle-oo goes out of her way to make it seem unpredictable, but it always turns out to be something ho-hum. Therefore, my guess is this is somehow Gi or Lo.
Garabato has a conversation with Carrlos. Carrlos doesn't know if Garabato should believe this Juan Garza guy. Then they talk about their lady loves. Garabato finds it ironic that Carrlos and Virginia want kids, but can't have them and Ines and Garabato have a kid (on the way) and Ines doesn't want it. Garabato luurves Ines. He wants to marry her as soon as she's out. Carrlos wonders why they don't just marry in the reclu.
Garabato does actually take a rose and a STOLEN ring to the prison to propose. Ines turns him down.
Lo is still playing the dutiful, but overworked wife. Esme brings Dr. Javier to examine Lo. Lo says rude things about being a blind doctor. I think I recall Esme agreeing to take care of Augie.
Oh, we got a trifecta of "maldita gatas" from Lo, Augie and Gi. Gi's lines smacked of "I"m not behind the Garza scheme." So it's probably Gi.
Dr. Javier finds it ironic that no one can see Esme's inner strength, but he can.
No one is telling Esme anything, even though she knows damn well something is up. Even Blanca is keeping her mouth shut. Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.
The back of Juan Garza's head talked to someone on the phone. I thought it was important but it was nothing. All we know is he tells someone not to worry, the damn Gata will pay. This all child's play. With any luck Gata will kill herself and take care of everything for them.
Pablo, Mariano and Damian all meet in the lawyer's office. Juan Garza turns out to be Rita's son/Ines's dad. Pablo punches JG. Very smart, dude.
Meh. I'll watch some more later. Usually I can watch a show and remember the main points of action. Not so with La Gata.

Yes, yes, and YES, Sara!! You are NOT alone, amiga. You are not alone in this line of thinking.
Yet, Uni Looney is over there chopping up "La Malquerida" to shreds (an excellent TN, by the way with GOOD acting)while this "story" continues its downward spiral. What utter...nonsense.

Agreed. Had it not been for some family drama, this would have been the low point of my night.
I was already tired of people keeping the situation away from Esme, but then Blanca got in on it as well. Finally recognized as Esme's mother and she STILL doesn't get to go all mama bear! DNA tests, people.
I thought the point of Damian being at the meeting is that he was around Gata all that time that Pablo and Mariano weren't. I kept waiting for him to speak up and say "Excuse me, but I've known Esme since we were kids and not only did she never mention you, but I know for a fact that she was way too busy working to have had a dalliance with you."
Apparently the on-screen babies have had their development stunted by always being held or being in their carriers.
I think the "How could you forget our Very Important Meeting tomorrow?" thing was a lie. I don't think she ever told him they had something to do. And that's odd, because normally, I would jump all over Pablo for being irresponsible, but I did not get that impression.
As for Juan. It's just such an incredibly weak ploy, no matter who is behind it (and now I wonder if it IS Gisela or if maybe Lorenza set this one up) that the only thing that could possibly happen is that Pablo offs the guy. He's never going to be able to prove he fathered those kids. Dumbass was in jail! Pablo's the one who should be suing for paternity. But that would be the intelligent thing to do. That he should have done already.

You see how fast Damien took that knife away from the dude and he's got ten penny nails holding his skull together? Hell yeah.
I'm wishing I had charted "appearances of Principe" and "stupidity of episode" to see if there's some correlation. Maybe...less Principe = more stupid?
I noticed that when Virginia was talking about how she's so in love with Carlos that Esme never said "Yeah, I feel like that about Pablo." Is it too much to hope that they're telegraphing Esme and Pablo NOT being together at the end?
Why was lawyer Gutierrez (and I finally noticed the weird foot art...which is indeed weird, and now distracting) so shocked that Damian was there representing Esme because "She hasn't been called yet!" She's the babies' one and only legal parent. There should be NO WAY that this is being kept from her. If anything, Juan should be suing HER for paternity rights. Pablo, now that we've officially heard is NOT their legal father, has nothing to do with any of this. I guess I wasn't supposed to notice that. They're acting like Juan wants Pablo to kindly step aside as father so they don't have to drag Esme into this. That makes no sense! There's nothing for Pablo to step aside FROM. It's not like he has a Dad Card he can hand over without Esme ever knowing about it!

Sara, If I were you I wouldn't even try recapping or bulleting this mess. Instead just enjoy a "Gata" free weekend and we'll keep the snarky comments going.
"I miss Principio"

Though stupid, whomever is behind Juan, knows Pablo an idiot. I think they know this is crap but want to give ole Pablo a good mind xxxking. It's working.
Kat, I noticed the shine has been rubbed off the Pablo coin but unfortunately think too many teens and tweens want more sloppy kisses laid on Maite from big headed Danny.

I'd be ok with more kissing. It means ff>> time and it means less typing and it means he's not doing or saying anything stupid. Kiss for the whole damn episode!
THere's some stuff up. It's crap. I really am going to go back and watch that scene when Juan Garza's hair was on the phone.
I can't even care about this any more. And it really pisses me off.

I went back and listened. I wish I could say I was drunk and that's why I thought he mentioned Ines during that phone call. He just said hijos and at this point I'd already figured out it was her dad.
Whatever.
His hair reminds me of Pancho Lopez.

Gracias, Sara! Thank you for your dedication and for squeezing a few laughs out of this bizarro situation!
"The back of Juan Garza's head" made a much better character than the actual Juan Garza with his smarmy face.
"Garabato finds it ironic that Carrlos and Virginia want kids, but can't have them and Ines and Garabato have a kid (on the way) and Ines doesn't want it." Hm, I wonder if Carlos and Virginia are going to end up raising Garabato and Ines' baby. They don't tend to point out the irony of things unless those things are going to come back to bite someone in the ass later.
"Garabato does actually take a rose and a STOLEN ring to the prison to propose." How could I forget this?! It did crack me up at the time. Gee, how romantic "I saved a ring from that robbery because I knew I wanted to use it to propose to you later!" I also laughed at her keeping the ring, which she's within her rights to do, as it was a gift...but it seems like someone would notice her trying to trade that rock for blankets and a better bed. I'm annoyed that she still hasn't had a trial, as far as we've heard.
"Usually I can watch a show and remember the main points of action. Not so with La Gata." Because there are no main points of action.

We could stand to do with them dropping a few plot points here!
That damn will! They never thought about how they were going to have him say "Sorry, guys, I totally stole your inheritance...forgive me?" and get away with it.

It just adds insult to injury that on TLNovelas that fuckery Inocente de Ti is being rerun.
LaToodleDoodle Criteria Check
LaToodleDoodle standard "sexy" but lame galan; played by Valentino Lanus (with the exception of Mario Cimarro and William Levy, this is omnipresent.)
Villana that becomes only reason to watch the damn abomination; played by Helena Rojo (she played good/bad twinsies. I liked her more in CCEA and PESE.)
From Rags to Riches and Feisty to Dumb Protagonica; played by Camila Sodi (don't quit your day job sistah.)
Character LEAGUES more interesting than the Mary-Sue protagonica- played by Altair Jarabo (she's great.)
It's sad that that since this is older it's one of her better shows.
I wonder what her next burnt in refrito process show will be.

So, who's filling those categories on this show?
Definitely Pablo is our non-galan, Esme our protagonista.
I'd say Lo is the love-to-watch villana, but even she's losing me.
For "more interesting than the protagonista" I'd go with Virginia, Ines, Blanca, Jarocha.

Sara, thank you girl! So right. There are no words. After the fight in the office, Garza totally came out of his mysterious "character" and started sprouting the same maldita gata refrain the trifecta uttered earlier. If G-spot is not behind this (which I think she is) then Ines is. Maybe Daddy found out his little princess was in prison and she initiated him into the maldita gata club and he's going to seek vengeance against Esme on behalf of Ines.
Like you said: stupid. stupid. stupid. The reasons all these people hate Esme are just stupid. stupid. stupid. All Augie could come up with is that he hates her for coming out of Blanca's womb. Where else could she come out ass opening, through her nose? Blanca never gave him the time of day, how the hell could he think he should have planted the fruit of her womb.
Oh. You know what? It's the trifecta of **ckery (thanks Eli): G, Augie and Lo working together and they've employed Garza!
Second theory (maybe someone already said this) is that meatball is behind this venganza: claiming paternity of the babies remix!
And yes, refusing to tell Esme is stupid, too. This will probably all end when Esme sees him and says: I never saw this guy in my life, thus another anticlimactic end to an "exciting" story line.

Random thought...do we ever get doctors or lawyers or judges who are women? I mean, here Latoodle is, a woman in a male-dominated business, but she's still letting her male characters run the show. That supervisor Esme had way back when was the closest we got to a woman in a position of prestige or authority. Or am I forgetting a character somewhere?
Sara,thanks from me and the back of Juan Garza's head!
You see that toothy snarl Juan Garza got.
So, let me stir the pot. I guess he figures he does have a dog in this fight since Augie blamed the death of Garabatos mom on him but why Esmeralda? Unless he has been chatting it up with Ines but Garabato was to take care of her, yet there was no mention of Gata when Ines turned down his proposal. I just wonder how Juan got out of the pen? Did Rita use any of her lottery money? Last it showed him, his petition for parole had been denied.

Lol, Lila! I don't know where Esme's supposed to have come out of, either, but my coffee nearly went up my nose!
Yeah, WTF...Juan gets out of prison and he hasn't even bothered to see his mama?
Is there any chance at all that Rita is financing this and what would her motivation be?
For all his Maldita-Gata-ing is he even trying to screw her over, or is he trying to mess with the Martinez Negrete family? Or have the writers not figured that out yet?

I'm honored to get a snort out of you, Diva! These gotdamned people are making me sooo sick I could just scream!
I think we're all screaming. Obi Wan Frickin' Kenobi is feeling the disturbance in The Force...as if hundreds of viewers all screamed "WTFFFFFFFFF!" and were suddenly silenced....
If LaToodleDoodle surprises us all by deciding to do Cuna de Lobos next (which is out of her league,) I'll lose it.
What a load. I guess Tweens think out of control posturing about " mis hijos" is swoon worthy.
Does anyone have any idea why Ines' father hates Gata? What does he have against El Sil? Did something happen between them in prison?
I vaguely remember in the first episodes that Gata,in particular, was threatened when he broke out of jail. Maybe that was meaningless.
This is so disappointing, and it seems yo get worse each week. What a waste of Mariano and Damien. What with the anti-climactic reveals so far, I'm thinking even the anvils are not going to be great.

Jorge Poza is on the late night showing of Alma de Hierro as a blind guy named Sebastian (I think he is a teacher but wouldn't be surprised if he were a student.) His character meets a tragic end but it hasn't been shown yet.
LN when it comes to "Garza" any amorous connection with Esme feels, if not illegal, "ewww-worthy." He's old enough to be her father, just like the old lech, meatball. What, did he try to molest her when she was a child and he's pissed about that? It's just sick! Did "Garza" also have the hots for Blanca and he hates for not being HIS daughter?
The problem is, we can't help trying to figure this out and it's senseless! Why should all these people hate a young woman who grew up as an orphan in a land fill abusively "raised" by a crazy old child trafficking hag? None of them need any money from her, they're all beyond comfortable. Isn't "Garza" supposed to have inherited a fortune. It's just frickin' stupid!

DNA alert. Remember folks, Pablo always has bad ideas, including this DNA test. The plot surely will rely on the old saw of a faked paternity test result showing that
Pablo is not the baby daddy but that Juan Garza is!!! Both Lo and Gisela will chip in to destroy everyone and everything. My only hope is that a black hole will hit all the characters at the finale and the screen will go to black!

Anything's possible, Anon. Remember during the costume party G had the idiot naked and in her bed. She had opportunity to have obtained samples of all the dummie's bodily fluids with no problem.
Thank you Sara. You cleared up a few things for me but it's hard to keep up with this one. A lot of it doesn't make sense and the crowd out on the patio thought that CI was bad.
A long time ago when Fernando was in his vengeance mode. he told Esme that the Negrete mansion would one day be hers. Then sometime later Lowrenza and Augie
loose the house and everything in it. (Lo does seem to hold on to some of her jewelry) After that we see the keys being given to Blanca but she never moves in, no one moves in. Now, Lowrenza and Augie are back in the mansion with all of their furniture. Maybe it's new furniture but the mansion is fully furnished. What gives? I'm confused, did I fall asleep on this one. Help!

AND......have we lost the Gringo??? I haven't seen on the patio for a while. Also David is missing, and where is Vivi in DC?

gringo, I think they got all their all old furniture back. Fernando gave the house to the MN kids (and I guess the furniture too) and they turned around and gave it back to their parents. Fernando forgot about all his previous promises.
I think Fernando & Pablo have more in common than they may think. Both suck with keeping promises.
Esmeralda was thought bubbling she lived in that house as a baby.
I actually was hoping someone else was the babies daddy instead of Pablo and would have gone along with some mystery donor from the ravine I'd never seen or heard of before. I would forgive Esmeralda everything, hell, I'd give her a medal. Why couldn't Pablo been the one that had a condition that would have killed him if he got near a womb?

tofie, I'd almost like her more if she did have another lover while Pablo was away. Unfortunately Juan makes himself sound just as unworthy, if not more. At least Pablo wasn't purposely taking advantage of her.
Gee, what a more exciting plot that would have been, if she'd realized he annulled the marriage, started dating some other guy who actually loved her unconditionally, and THEN he came back and they realized they'd been had. That's a conflict. Dippy Pablo being dippy, but she just can't let him go is...not.

So are we boycotting Mejia/Lartilleux novelas on this blog? After La Gata ends, let's take a vow not to tolerate these insults to intelligence ever again.
Quiero Odiarte Pero Te Amo (Mejia's installation of La Mentira; there are so many things wrong with that sentence) just screams, shouts and cries CIRCAZO! We can give it a gander but I'm sure it wouldn't deserve to be recapped.

I was praying she'd jump the good docs bones when he almost planted a kiss. Frankly, I don't care who it is, somebody needs to show that girl Pablo isn't a man. She's got Mariano that adores and respects her, Damien who would kill to protect her, heck the buff physical therapist would never have given the likes of Gisela an upper thigh massage.
Thanks for stopping by, everyone!
Add my voice to the chorus of confusion about the hatred toward La Gata. Folks either fall in love with her or hate the hell out of her. Either way: YAWN!!
I remember the comment about La Gata being in danger if Rita's son got out, and if this were anything but a Latoodle production I would think more of it. But I don't think she plans or thinks ahead, so I don't think there is any connection between that line and the current events.
I did enjoy the Esme "this should have been my house" thought bubble.
I know I will NEVER recap a Latoodle or Mejia production ever again. EVER.
I'm pretty cranky about Televisa productions in general now. Even Malquerida has gotten on my nerves...but not really the show I guess. It's just the whole Televisa trope: plastic boobs and butts, bad nose jobs, no one looks "real", dresses so short that the actresses can barely sit down without exposing everything, caricatures instead of characters.
I'm telling ya' I have to stop watching old Televisa and Chilean shows. Everything else pales in comparison.

I remember the comment about La Gata being in danger if Rita's son got out, and if this were anything but a Latoodle production I would think more of it. But I don't think she plans or thinks ahead, so I don't think there is any connection between that line and the current events.
I did enjoy the Esme "this should have been my house" thought bubble.
I know I will NEVER recap a Latoodle or Mejia production ever again. EVER.
I'm pretty cranky about Televisa productions in general now. Even Malquerida has gotten on my nerves...but not really the show I guess. It's just the whole Televisa trope: plastic boobs and butts, bad nose jobs, no one looks "real", dresses so short that the actresses can barely sit down without exposing everything, caricatures instead of characters.

Like I said, LaToodleDoodle takes the death and life thing for the protagonica to a whole other level of disturbing. Esmerz' car accident and head trauma administered by Gisela was when I quit this show. If she wasn't so easy to hate I'd be rooting for her; I root for Mariano, Damian, Monica, Fela, Garabato, Willy, Jarocha, Cha Cha, Virginia and Carlos.
Esmerz' had been put in so much danger that anytime I see someone everyone wants to kill in a novela, I ask, "Why does one everyone want to kill Esmeralda?"
My new definition to Esmeralda being: a Female that men and eomen equally lust and feel ardent passion at the crotch for or want to violent tear apart with their bare hands or with the help of rabid and feral dingoes.

Sara,
Thank you for wading through this episode on our behalf and giving it a solid recap. I am just mystified why Pablo doesn't go get a DNA test right now!
Tofie (I think) says: 'Isn't "Garza" supposed to have inherited a fortune?'
Okay Garza, AKA Tilico, was wrongly imprisoned for killing (by escaleracide) the wife of the man that El Sil killed in self defense. (I believe Augie actually pushed her down the stairs; Tilico was just a witness). Before she died, her baby was born. That baby was Garabato. So Tiloco was telling someone that the baby Garabato was left with him (Tilico) in the dump while Tilico awaited trial. Tilico (AKA Garza)is the only one who knows Garabato is the heir to some kind of fortune. Didn't someone hint something of this to Garabato the other day?
Maybe those two are related and their last name is really "Garbanzo"?

It's not likely Caray as an entity will ever take an official position on which shows to cover or not cover. Which is good news if you ever get sucked into another Latoodle or Mejia production again--there's at least a chance that someone might put a team together to cover it and you won't have to suffer alone.
Just a chance, mind you. A snowball's chance in hell, probably.

I would venture to guess that Latoodle is higher on the sh!t list than her spouse. I didn't watch them, but I believe QBA and La Tempestad both did pretty well in the Caray ratings at least.
Mejias latest also includes Ana Brenda Contreras. She's pretty decent acting wise.

But we skipped out on Corona de Lagrimas which turned out to be OK LOL. It sure as hell wasn't my favorite but it was better than Abismo de Pasion which is saying a lot. Sure we wanted to skip out on OneTrickPony's crying cycle but at least she had valid reasons to cry. I also enjoyed Raquel Garza's character as I do in every novela she is in.
QBA also had Victor Noriega who has a bigger cup size than Julian Gil which again is saying a lot.

I liked La Tempestad. The biggest complaint it got on the board was how it was butchered. That faithful and dedicated recap team actually watched the unedited versions and included the cut out bits in different colored font within the recap! A herculean and much appreciated effort!
That was LaToodle-oo's husband?!

Is that why his last name was "Johnson"?
(Thank you folks, I'll be here all week. Remember to tip your waitress!)
After watching Vicky cry all through TdA, I didn't think I could stand Corona. I mean, it was right there in the title "Warning! She's gonna cry! A lot!"

Thanks Sara and Lila for our last two recaps. Valiant soldiers sifting through the ruins for something to give the patio peeps.
PabloBobo should have kept his cool and insisted on DNA testing. The test tube is mightier than the fist, if he could comprehend this.
It's a sick situation when I care more about Ines and Garabato's romance than Esme and Pablo.

I saw an episode or two of Corona but it never hooked me. Ms Ruffo did do a lot of crying.
I had heard that La Tempestad got butchered. Didn't they do some editing with QBA, too?
My biggest fear in recapping is two hour marathons and editing. Sometimes I can barely stand recapping an hour.

Well if you guys ever need a team member for any future LaToodleDoodle shows that look promising but turn out suckish, I'm here. If you guys even need a tag team partner for La Gata right now I'm willing to help out with what's left (HEFDM novela-wise is slowly losing me and with the From Pedro to David change almost did. I'm really watching it because I'm blissfully awaiting Patricio's anvil and love Diego Olivera playing that delectable slice of DILF Armando. I'm sticking with it for you guys though.)
I'm also up for anything Roberto Gomez-Fernandez and Giselle Gonzalez.

Thanks, LaPaloma! I actually feel heartened knowing it's almost over and, of course, being part of such a stellar team!
:D
:D
Holy Moly you guys, I swore after Corazon Indomable that I would never watch another Mejia production again. It seems like a made the right call.
"It's only 121 episodes." I said. "How bad can it be?" I said.
I can't believe this did better than Cachito de Cielo and PSMA.
It kind of makes me wonder: La Muchacha Italian Viene a Casarse is tanking. Does that mean that it's actually good? (I fear that's what's going to air after this.)

Sara- I continue to enjoy reading these hilarious recaps. Thank you and your whole recapping team!
But nothing, not even Marcelo Cordoba, could draw me back into this tn. I learned my lesson with CI. I respect the dedication and fortitude of those of you who stuck it out. I will watch the final episode with you all to see the wedding dress. :)

MIVAC is by Pedro Damian so it's good. It just doesn't have much appeal because it's a pink show. I think it's cute.
cathyx, I think we have all learned our lesson!

Not even Marcelo Cordoba could have saved this mess, especially with the creepy stalker doctor role they gave him. UGH!

Thank you, Sara. I feel your pain in having to wade through this stuff, but appreciate your talents and willingness to see it through.
An Officer Efficiency Report is a yearly evaluation of an officer by his/her superior, and can make or break a person's career. Some of these could be used to describe our TN:
1. This officer is really not so much of a has-been, but more of a definitely won't-be.
2. When she opens her mouth, it seems that this is only to change whichever foot was previously there.
3. He would be out of his depth in a parking lot puddle.
4. This young lady has delusions of adequacy.
5. She sets low personal standards and then consistently fails to achieve them.
6. He has the wisdom of youth, and the energy of old age.
7. This officer is depriving some village of its idiot.
8. His men would follow him anywhere, but only out of curiosity.
9. This officer has a full six-pack, but lacks the little plastic thingy to hold everything together.

Guys! Guys!!
I'm showing my students CCEA and one of them just said in reference to Maite "Girl, work them eyes!!"
Love it!

CS, thank you. I know I'm going to need coverage in February, but I don't have dates yet.
Cathyx, Vivi, you are wise :)
David, that was spot on!
Sara, that's hilarious!

Thanks so much Sara! Great reacap!
The "Maldita Gata" trifecta was the highlight of the night for me. It was so silly.
Sara - Where are you at with CCEA? I loved CCEA. Maite and William made a cute couple.
"Girl, work them eyes!!"
Was it in reference to Marichuy's blindness?

Mauricio-We are watching the DVD and we just got to the part where Marichuy shows up to Estefania's birthday party.
The "Girl, work them eyes" comment came after one of Maite's trademark look down and then peek up through the eyelashes expressions.

I agree that Maite can sure work her big, beautiful brown eyes.
David---I liked your list.
As some of you know, I stood up and defended Maricruz until the end. Even though she did a number of things that everything scratching and shaking their heads
Yes she was told that her friend from childhood was robbing, stealing from her. I let that slide because it is hard to believe that someone you grew up with would do that to you. She gave vast amounts of her fortune away. I let that pass because she
Maricruz had compassion for the poor. She lost her business because she didn't keep her eye on them. She trusted others to watch them. A mistake etc. But La Gata?
I have read all of the negative and angry comments and must say that I, like you, am about at the end of my rope too. I love Maite but PLEAZZZE! This one has gone from bad (a few mistakes) to worse
The craziness has gotten out of control. I like seeing Maite every night but couldn't they have given her a decent story to work with? Well I hanging in there but not with a lot of joy and happiness.
Even though this has turned into a train wreck, I would like to say thank you again to the recappers for sticking it out.

Hope you enjoy it, Sara!
They didn't make it clear on the DVD, but the party is to present Estefania into society.
Estefy and Tia Isabella are despicable, aren't they? Watch for Estefania's barrettes.
Over on Telenovela-World we nicknamed Amador "Hamador" and called him Hammy. LOL
