Yago #23. Monday June 20, 2016. Relationship Status: It’s Yagomplicated.

At a glance  

-- Lucio pulls an elaborate stunt to verify whether Yago is Sara’s lover. To no avail. 
-- Ámbar leaves her sister’s house to go live with Yago, her love interest, who, unbeknownst to her, is her sister’s mystery boinker, that her brother-in-law is determined to find and kill.
-- Abel discovers that Sara, his best friend’s wife, is having an affair with his love rival, who happens to be the love interest of Sara’s sister, who happens to be Abel’s love interest. 
-- Katia and Teo sleep together to ease the tensions of their complicated working relationship. 

A closer look 

Flashback, Mexico City, a few years ago. Young Bruno is quarreling in the schoolyard with Young Eduardo from MEPS, in his pre-Járvar days. Bruno is accused of stealing a wallet and though he maintains his innocence, nobody is willing to believe in the word of a murderer’s brother. This insult enrages Bruno who rains blows upon his classmate. The principal interrupts the fight and reprimands Bruno for his violent and disruptive behavior. The problem teen had been expelled from several schools already, does he want to be thrown out of this one as well? asks the principal. Justice isn’t achieved through delivering punches. He hands Bruno a book by Polish journalist, Ryszard Kapuściński (1932-2007), called: “Cynics Are No Use At this Profession: About Good Journalism”. That day, Bruno discovered another way to raise his voice (alzar la voz) against injustice and to defend the truth.

Sueño de Amor (SdA) #70. Monday June 20, 2016. When The Villano Is A More Reliable Galán Than The Galán

Ernesto is insanely hot: Sweet as pie with his gal but a bad motha when need be. He deserves a happy ending. Yes, I have issues.

At a glance 

-- Osorio is still regurgitating the same tired plots. Esperanza suffers. Ricardo plays vigilante (when Baxter is the real unsung hero). Ernesto melts hearts. Pato b*tches. Luca cowers. Kristel snivels. Pedro withdraws. Estrella self-sacrifices. Erasmo self-flagellates. Cristina is self-important. Silvana is pathetic. Mario is spineless. Margarita is clueless. Kracy is crazy. Kiko is the producer's son, so he gets plenty of airtime no matter what.

A closer look 

At Casa Guerrero, Pedro informs his sister that the X-rated photos starring her fiancé and his ex have gone viral. Pato throws another tantrum about Luca not calling her immediately after being notified of Anastasia’s latest stunt. It’s not like the guy has to earn a living or anything. New York or no, business trip or no, Pato expects Luca to phone her at the top of every hour to let her know what he’s doing and to marvel at her beauty, to maintain good communication. Here’s a thought, Pato: Why don’t you attach a Luca-cam to the guy’s head and follow his every movement?

Un Camino Hacia el Destino-Week 18 (June 20, 2016) 1st Half

IS FERNANDA THE ONLY PRISONER IN THIS STORY? Think About---

Marissa - She's a prisoner of a debilitating disease and cloudy thinking

Don Fernando - He's also a prisoner of his mental deterioration and the manipulation by his elder daughter and her husband

Luis - He's a prisoner of greed, ambition and malevolence

Mariana and Hernan - They are in the same prison as Luis, with a little envy and jealousy thrown in the mix

Camila - She is a prisoner of her upbringing: unloved, unappreciated, a tool of her father

Isabela - She is a prisoner of her Hair and an uncontrolled obsession with Carlos

Amelia - She's been in a prison of her own making; bitter and longing for her former life, although she may get out on parole

Pedro - He's a prisoner of his own stubbornness and the inability to see how his goodness and protectiveness hurts the ones he loves

Carlos - He's a prisoner of telenovela plots, conventional set-ups, chicanery and skullduggery committed by others

Tres Veces Ana #23: OVER THE MOON BY THE LAGOON


Who’ll be the first over the moon?  Let us see…..

Ana Laura says “Sí” but balks at being bedded before being wedded.  Her leg of lead stops them dead.  They head home instead, while most of the family are filled with dread that down the wrong road Ramiro has A Lloro led.

Meanwhile, Ana Lucia and Santiago drive back to the place where it all began for them.  They promise each other they’ll never love another.  A mistaken Evaristo tells Mama Solidad that they’re more than likely saying their good-byes cuz he’s on his way to somewhere that ensures they’ll never see hide nor hair of each other again.

Sueño de amor, Ep. 69 (6.16.16) Believe it or not: Everybody is sleepless in Sueñolandia

¡Paradójico! ¡Nadie tiene sueño en Sueñolandia!

Midnight confessions
(brought to you by ZzzQuil)

Is midnight in Sueñolandia and the sandman failed to show up, so everybody is awake...

Mario came looking for Leche Lala and found Salma, so they had a picnic inside the refrigerator while discussing the love life of the teenager. Hashtag Ladyconfundida2 or #Ladyembarazada. Her guilt is keeping her awake because she is expecting a baby from the boy she loves and he despises her while there's another boy who loves her but she dispises him. Well, it runs in the family, Mario himself was confundido once dating Pánfila, or whats her name? Felícitas, only to make her loose her job and disappear from the face of the earth. Now he loves Viviana but who knows? Silvana is coming back, and the writers are crazy, so I wouldn't bet much on it. 

#Lordconfundido
Erasmo only had yesterday's stale tortillas but Kiko wanted to talk while Estrella prayed to both her mother and the Virgen de la Paz so she could avoid going to Tamaulipas with Sansón. Their impossible loves are keeping them awake, and to make matters worst, now Erasmo will have to work in three different places just to pay the interest of the interest of his loan. If only poor people were not this stoopid, they could manage their economics better. later on, when both guys are fast asleep, she writes her ''goodbye letter''

Un Camino Hacia el Destino-Week 17 (June 13, 2016) 2nd Half

#FREEFERNANDA
Who holds the key to Fernanda’s freedom? Will it be Ignacio, Camila, Carlos, Don Fernando, Amelia, Pedro, Felipe or…wait for it, Javier? Yes, Javier will no doubt come back into the picture. He was only supposed to be gone a short time. Pedro is living in his house, for heaven’s sakes. It would be hard to believe Javier didn’t leave a way to contact him while he’s been away. Pedro can’t be so stupid or blind not to let him know what happened to Fer. Indeed, Pedro had the hopes that Fernanda would turn her eyes on Javier, a wholesome, successful and acceptable mate, even though Javier himself saw it was a hopeless situation.

Yago, #21, Wednesday 6/15/16: Yago Strikes Again

We meet Camilo at a ribbon-cutting ceremony in front of a tall building. (He's the ribbon-cutter.) He tells us that playing God is addictive. One way to keep power is to use people's fear against them. Power is like a muscle: you have to keep using it in order to stay strong. If you don't use your power, it weakens.

Camilo meets his goons (including Tomas Vargas, the loan shark) on the roof of the building. He asks who let the kid get away. As the guilty party begs for his life, Camilo orders one of his other goons, a man called El Chino, shoot him in the head. Chino protests weakly, but complies. Then Camilo orders Chino to jump off the roof. Chino protests a little more strongly. Camilo holds up a photo of Chino's wife, Jesusa. Camilo says that if Chino doesn't fall off the roof, they'll rape and torture his wife to death. Chino jumps off the roof.

Sueño de amor #68 Wed. 6/15/16

It seems soooo long ago but we left with Cristina deciding to accept the job at the Instituto Palacios and asking Mr. Snoop Ricardo to leave.

At the family court office, Ricardo hands over a psychological evaluation that was done on him about six months ago to the judge. She says she will look it over. She asks if he has the "proof" he has told her about. He does not have those videos yet. He will be sending them to her and they will prove he never touched Tracy. He thanks her for the time and consideration she has given him. His case is interesting to her because she wants to protect his children and she can see that his children do love him which is the opposite of Tracy's claims. She wants all of the information as clear as possible.

Margarita and Kristel go to visit Silvana at the jail. Surprise! Surprise! Silvana's demeanor is totally changed as part of the "true revenge" plan as suggested by La Tuerta (Ole One Eye). Silvana is crying and asking for their forgivenes. She even kisses their hands and lets them "pet" her head like a dog but nothing has changed. She has successfully deceived them with her "pity me" and "mea culpa" act. In reality, Silvana thinks they are just as stupid as ever.

Un Camino Hacia el Destino-Week 17 (Jun 13, 2016) 1st Half

NOTICE: No Camino on Monday, June 13

We will have to wait until Tuesday to see how Fernanda’s trial goes. With Felipe defending her instead of Ordoñez, anything can happen. Can anything save her from prison? If Camila goes along with Mariana and Hernán, she will lose Fernanda as a friend forever, but gain her father’s approval (temporarily, probably). If she doesn't and backs Fernanda, her father's wrath comes down on her and Mariana reverts to her venomous reptilian persona. Since Camila hurt Fer at the end of Friday's episode telling her Carlos won't show up because he took his mother to Houston and he's with Ickzzy--his only real love, this does not bode well for the friendship.

Don Fernando is a lost cause to testify in favor of Fernanda. He's too befuddled. As Delilah pointed out, he doesn't even look good in his clothes.

Things look bleak before the trial even gets under way.

While we wait, let’s speculate—why, when Fernanda is faced with serious prison time, won’t Pedro or Amelia just let loose with their not so very dirty secret to Luis….and Fernanda. (Thank you, Diana, for the idea.)

Tres Veces Ana #19: The Facade de Bondad Starts Cracking




Three Facades de la Bondad

Ana Laura's answer to Ana Leticia's declaration that Uncle Mariano is hers and can never be Jennifer's is met with a plea for Lemmee to get professional help.  (Yeah, like when has she ever listened to anybody but herself, ever?)

Meanwhile, Ramiro's credit and cards are blocked and locked.  (Does it make sense staying in a high class hotel then, when he knows ol' Papi-cock has cut him off?  Dude deserves what he gets.  He ain't smart enough to live long, but we know he will.)  He goes to The Realty Place to at least give Uncle Mo the 411 on Ana Lucia.  Unfortunately for him, Lemmee sees and latches onto him first; she taunts him and then when Mo enters the area, slaps the shit outta Rami and calls him fresh.  Info is all a no go, and Mo gives him the heave ho.......Damn! Is Ramiro slow!

Yago, #20, Friday 6/10/16: Congratulations! It's a Boy!

Flashback: Sara is looking at the positive result on her pregnancy test and thinking that she isn’t cut out to be a mother. She never played with dolls or played house as a child and didn’t grow up with a mother’s love. She doesn't think she can be a better parent than her father was to her. Now Mati is paying for her sins.

She goes to prison to tell Omar he’s going to become a father, but then changes her mind and leaves.

She goes to Chela, her old landlady, to take her to the abortion clinic. She doesn’t feel anything for this child and doesn’t want to have it. Chela urges Sara to take a few days to think about it, but Sara wants to get it over with.

Before the procedure can begin, the technician does an ultrasound. When Sara hears the baby’s heartbeat, she changes her mind... and brings the ultrasound picture to Lucio. "We’re going to have a baby!" Lucio is over the moon.

Weekend Activity: The Televisa Remake Game (Classic Movies Edition)


In the last week I've been watching some great classic movies, so I've decided to revive something we had fun with in the past, The Televisa Remake Game. The rules:

  • Pick a classic movie, any genre.  Title translation optional.
  • Give your dream cast for the Televisa Remake you would produce.  Actors currently under contract to Telemundo are also invited to the casting call.  Although most or all character names would be changed into Spanish ones, use the original character names for clarity.
  • Make note of any minor changes to setting, character relationships, etc.
  • Comment on any previously posted project.
  • Have fun!
