Upcoming Telenovelas: Jan/Feb 2017: What’s Happening Now; What’s Coming Soon?
Amigos,
There are a few changes coming to primetime telenovelas. Here’s a rundown of what’s happening now on Telemundo, Univision and Unimás, and what’s coming soon. Feel free to share any intel in the comments.
Despertar Contigo sprints to its finish. Its final week’s episodes will be shown in 2-hour slots, 7pm-9pm, this whole week. After that, Univision does NOT seem to be in any hurry to bring in another 8pm telenovela, and instead will run the new season of its kids’ talent show, Pequeños Gigantes (the original version of Little Bigshots shown on NBC that’s hosted by Steve Harvey).
La Fan recently started in the 8pm slot, and so far is a very enjoyable comedic telenovela, worthy of the talents of its leading lady, Angélica Vale (La Fea Mas Bella). It’s a fun look at the lives of telenovela actors and their fans, and perfect for anyone looking for a light comedy with heart. La Fan is only two weeks in, so it won’t be hard to catch up!

Univision:
Despertar Contigo sprints to its finish. Its final week’s episodes will be shown in 2-hour slots, 7pm-9pm, this whole week. After that, Univision does NOT seem to be in any hurry to bring in another 8pm telenovela, and instead will run the new season of its kids’ talent show, Pequeños Gigantes (the original version of Little Bigshots shown on NBC that’s hosted by Steve Harvey).
Vino el Amor,
currently in the 9pm slot, is doing so well in Mexico, it’s been extended.
Let’s hope it continues to heat up on the vineyard, and we soon learn why the
Mexican audience wanted another serving of vino. So far, this wine has mainly
been making us sleepy.
El Color de la Pasión
is in its final weeks in the 10pm slot. After moving along at a rapid
clip for 80+ episodes, it’s hit a lull before what’s sure to be an exciting
final few weeks.
Telemundo:
La Fan recently started in the 8pm slot, and so far is a very enjoyable comedic telenovela, worthy of the talents of its leading lady, Angélica Vale (La Fea Mas Bella). It’s a fun look at the lives of telenovela actors and their fans, and perfect for anyone looking for a light comedy with heart. La Fan is only two weeks in, so it won’t be hard to catch up!

New Telenovela: A Que No Me Dejas, Starts Monday, September 12, 2pm/1c. Synopsis And Cast
Looneyvision has finally deigned to air “A Que No Me Dejas” (“I Dare You To Leave Me”), the 2015 novela acclaimed by critics and audiences alike, in Mexico and the rest of Latin America.
“A Que No Me Dejas” was the biggest winner at Premios TVyNovelas 2016. It scooped up best script and/or adaption, best direction, best cinematography, best musical theme, best veteran actress and actor for Leticia Calderón and Arturo Peniche respectively, best female antagonist for Laura Carmine and, dare I say, it should have received the best male protagonist prize too, because Osvaldo Benavides deserved it heaps more than any other nominee in that category. The same producer, Carlos Moreno Laguillo, and the same writing duo, Martha Carrillo and Cristina García, that gave us such gems as “Amor Bravío”, “Quiero Amarte” and “En Nombre del Amor”, now bring us this remake of Carla Estrada’s “Amor en Silencio” (1988).

New Telenovela: El Color de la Pasion, September 6th Debut
 |
| Marcelo y Lucia, our pretty protagonists (not to be confused with SantMarc y Ana Lucia from 3xAna) |
Next Tuesday, September 6th, is the 2-hour debut of El Color de la Pasión (The Color of Passion) at 7:55pm EST. After sitting for two years on Univision’s shelf, it replaces Narcos, which has been recapped by Countx during its 2-week run, in the 10pm EST slot.
So far, there seems to be lots of interest in watching this popular
telenovela, and also some interest in recapping it from: Delilah, dy77, Anna Nabil, Anita, Jardinera, and Cathyx. I would also be interested in
sharing a night with someone. If those listed are still interested, please
email me and we can decide on a recapping schedule. If others are interested,
please also email me. Gracias, amigas y amigos!

New Telenovelas/Series Coming to Univision- Aug/Sept 2016
Hola Amigos!
Read more »
Here’s an update on some changes coming in the next few
weeks to Univision’s lineup, if you haven’t already seen the ads. Three new
shows are coming our way. Two of them are not so new, as one is a popular
telenovela that aired in Mexico in 2014, and the other already aired as a
Netflix series last year. Keep in mind that Univision has been known to change
its mind often, and last minute. No word yet on if Uni still plans to split Tres Veces Ana into 2 seasons (temporadas), but it seems they don't. If you would like to recap any of these new shows, please let Blog Mom/Jane/Melinama know. Let’s
go in order of Univision start dates…
