TELEMUNDO Y MÁS (#1): Betty en NY, La Reina del Sur 1, y más: Week of March 25,2019

Welcome to Page 1 (Monday edition) of the Telemundo y Más page, issued twice a week:  Mondays and Thursdays at 8:00 PM.

Here are the current evening telenovelas (all times are Eastern Standard Time):
  • 9-10PM - Betty en NY
  • 10-11PM - La Reina del Sur Season 1
The second season of La Reina del Sur will begin on April 22.  Telemundo is again showing the first season but somewhat shortened.

Everyone is welcome to join in the conversation.  Since discussions of all the Telemundo novelas share the same page, please remember to put the name of the telenovela you're referring to at the top of your post so readers can easily find the conversation they're looking for.

By common agreement, this group DOES NOT discuss previews, trailers, or any other plot information not found in a current or past episode of the current production.  Spoilers WILL be removed by the admin.  This includes references to earlier productions of the story, and even the original novel.  Thanks for your cooperation!

MaameAdwoa, I'm sorry we haven't recapped Betty en NY. There just hasn't been a lot of interest on Caray for this novela. Here in the US, the basic plot of Betty has been shown three times. We will be back with recaps when La Reina del Sur 2 begins in April.
 

There is a very active community on Twitter "El Pelotón de Twitter", look under #BettyEnNY. They gather every night to live tweet and some fan fic has already been written on WattPad. Most of the Pelotón de Twitter has seen the original, the Mexican version and now this version and never tire of it.

I just found that the photo I used as my avatar was missing from my Blogger profile, so I've added it. Let's see if it now appears.

Whew! I'm glad tonight's episode is over. Having seen the original version of La Reina del Sur, I knew what was coming. I didn't want to say anything ahead of time, since the policy on CarayCaray is not to discuss any sort of spoilers, and I suspect there are people who are watching this abridged version in preparation for Reina 2 and haven't seen the original. Anyway, I was NOT looking forward to tonight's episode. IIRC, this is the last really awful thing that happens.

I gotta say, though I'm not enjoying the violence, I AM enjoying watching this abridged version. True, I don't think it's nearly as good as the original. It's too rushed, the pacing is all wrong, the characters and relationships don't grow in this speeded up version, but still... Someone coming to Reina for the first time may not feel the magic of the original, but s/he will have a good idea of what happened.

I had hoped that there would be more discussion of this version of Reina, both by people who have seen the original and by people for whom the abridged version is their introduction. Anyone have any thoughts? Things you like? Things you don't like? Things that puzzle you?
