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. 

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!

Vino el Amor - Episode #63-Friday 1/27/2017: Esta Historia te Atrapa--and How

We’re as trapped as those poor undocumented border crossers Juan has. We might have more fun on a scavenger hunt game, cruising the aisles of the nearest Wall*Verdes browsing the shelves hunting for all the products they advertise on Vino.
 
[Some scenes have been combined.]
Ni modo—Here is Lo De Ayer
Graciela, in her slinky, low-cut, spaghetti-strap, black cocktail pants suit, tomato red lips and golden locks slimes her spit all over David’s 10 o’clock shadow. It looks as though he might be leaning in to kiss her, but maybe he just lost his balance. Gracie pulls away and apologizes. His clear blue eyes look after her with interest as she walks away.
 
Meanwhile Perla and Juan spit at each other over their next steps in the police-human trafficking net closing in on them. Juan has changed his mind. He’s staying. Perla says he can’t do that to her. If he turns chicken like his little friend Mark, she’s going to send him packing. Juan takes that as a threat. If she doesn’t like how things are, she can take a hike right now herself. She whirls and leaves. Juan sits down in a thinking man’s pose as his world collapses on him. He knows it, too.

Vino el Amor, Jueves 1/26/17 Chapter 62: Tears for Fears


Just the facts:

Miguel, and Tano arrived at the Susan and Mark encounter; some threats were made and Mark tried to throw Susan under the bus for the benefit of the crowd. César arrived with the lawyer, then the police came. Mark ran. One cop told Susan she would need to go to the station to make a statement. They went to do so.

Juan panicked about the two investigations; Mark called him to tell him the police are now also after him about Susan and he needs to split the scene.

Vino el Amor #61; Wednesday January 25, 2017: Time for Heart Mending and Truths

Repeated scene: Gutierrez comes over to the employees house to talk to Marta, but Marta is livid and does not want anything to do with him. She says to “get the hell out of my home!” León arrives with Miguel and León is like, “let me at him!” and tries to go after Gut but Miguel holds him back. Gutierrez finally leaves and Marta, Luciana, and León huddle together trying to comfort Marta. Luciana tells Miguel she needs to go talk to David. Mig says, “Why don’t I go talk to him and you can stay here with your mom?” But Luciana explains that since this really is about her work visa, she needs to go and explain what happened, since she angrily threw the visa paperwork back over at Gutierrez when she was so angry. Luciana goes out the door and Miguel brings something to eat for Marta to try to cheer her up.

Vino el Amor #60, January 24, 2017: Vino El Tears, Fears, Jeers, Sneers and More Tears


As predicted, this was quite the episode! Nice to see some drama that is actual drama on this show. We had a big revelation, punches were thrown and there were more tears than even Victoria Ruffo can handle. Our other villains provided some fears, some jeers and some sneers, when not partying or plotting! Oh and David and Cesar had one of their Girl Talk sessions and David did the mannequin challenge.

Vino el Amor, Viernes 01/20/17 Chapter 58: Witches, Vitches, and Cavemen



Lillian gave Gracie the 1950s talk about her not needing to be a “great artist” as long as she can entrap David. She segues from that into her hatred of Marta, which is great enough for her to shatter an innocent tulip glass filled with good wine. Gracie almost panicked at this.

Plus we meet new character Ingrid and introduce a wine competition straight out of a Hallmark movie. Oh, and of course, Luciana and David grump around together and separately and break up again even though they have yet to go on a date.

Vino el Amor, Lunes 01/16/17 Chapter 54: Hitting the Return Key


Juan and David disagreed about Miguel, whom Juan is trying to throw shade on just because he is acquainted with Erika. He then handed him a favorable financial report which David should probably find suspect. He's trying to get more on David's good side, where he was before.

León and Luciana were having a late night snack in Mexico City and she was worrying about Erika moving in on Miguel. León reminded her that Miguel waited all those years for her. He's not worried... and very much enjoying the semi-fast food of Mexico.

Vino el Amor – Episode #53 – Friday 1/13/2017: The Amazing Race—Televisa Style

We revisit Miguel trying to put David in his place regarding Luciana. David imposes his position of superiority telling Miguel that what happens to Luci will always matter to him—as Marta’s daughter and part of the family. He felt guilty for not staying on top of her visa paperwork. Miguel reasserts his position by noting that David’s a little late. Tano and Marta hold him back. Marta assures David they will try again to reach Luciana in the morning. David leaves and Marta gives Miguel a look that would be enough to send a small child to stand in a corner.
 
Carita and Perla are in the shelter holding all the illegals, arguing in vain with Juan about the sick workers and the need for medical care. They can’t go on dispensing aspirin. He tells them it’ll take a few days to get one here. Meanwhile, they should calm the workers down by telling them a doctor will be coming soon. The girls say it’s a lie and Juan says, yeah, but it buys them time. Carita is worried that one might die on them. Perla and Juan jump on her. Carito asks if there’s any news on the girl that got away. Juan guesses she’s already in the hands of immigration. If she is, Perla thinks it won’t be long before they are all discovered.

Vino el Amor, 1/12/17, Episode 52

This episode is brought to you by our Sonia; disfrutala!

The episode starts with Grace pouring her heart out to David. I gotta say I admire her for this bold move, but also it was about time and surely David isn’t completely blind. Or is he? He reassures her that his feelings have not changed. He thanks her for being honest with him. David doesn’t want to hurt her so it’s best if they just carry on. Grace wants him to admit that there is someone else in his life. David basically tells G the same thing he told Luci: his kids are his number one priority and therefore he cannot be in a relationship. G calls bull because “Fer and Bobby love her”, they wouldn’t be opposed to their union. Grace wants THEIR family to be united. D thinks that it's for the best. G says that he needs to give himself the opportunity to be happy and storms off.
