TELEMUNDO Y MÁS (#2): Cennet, Enemigo Íntimo 2, y más: Week of August 24, 2020

TELEMUNDO WEEKEND EDITION (continuación)

Here's Page 2 for the week.  The current evening telenovelas are as follows (all times are Eastern Daylight Time):

• 9-10PM—Cennet**
• 10-11PM—Enemigo Íntimo 2**

**I have no additional info about show times for this Thursday. According to Telemundo, Cennet will start at 8:54 PM, and at 9:54 PM there will be a program entitled Decisión 2020. Presumably, this is when Trump will give his acceptance speech to the virtual convention. However, according to Zap2It (set to PDT), Decisión 2020 will run from 6:54-8 PM, Exatlón will run from 8-10 PM, and Cennet will run from 10-11 PM.  On the East Coast, Telemundo's times are probably correct. Normally, Telemundo's times also work for the West Coast, but last Thursday, Cennet did not begin until 10:30 PM! No one listed that correctly. The same thing may or may not happen this week. The only thing Telemundo and Zap2It agree on is that Enemigo Íntimo 2 will not be shown on Thursday. Everything returns to normal on Friday.

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 conversations 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 reference to earlier productions of the story, and even the original novel. Thanks for your cooperation!

TELEMUNDO Y MÁS (#1): Cennet, Enemigo Íntimo 2, y más: Week of August 24, 2020

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 Daylight Time):

• 9-10PM—Cennet**
• 10-11PM—Enemigo Íntimo 2**

**It looks as if this week there may be an information screwup similar to the one we experienced last week regarding Thursday's schedule. Telemundo and Zap2It again offer conflicting information.  According to Telemundo, on Thursday Cennet will start at 8:54 PM, and at 9:54 PM there will be a program entitled Decisión 2020. Presumably, this is when Trump will give his acceptance speech to the virtual convention. However, according to Zap2It (set to PDT), Decisión 2020 will run from 6:54-8 PM, Exatlón will run from 8-10 PM, and Cennet will run from 10-11 PM. Last week, neither Telemundo nor Zap2It was completely correct. On the East Coast, apparently Telemundo's times were correct. Normally, those times also work for the West Coast, but on Thursday, Cennet did not begin until 10:30 PM! No one listed that correctly. The same thing may or may not happen this week. The only thing Telemundo and Zap2It agree on is that Enemigo Íntimo 2 will not be shown on Thursday. Everything returns to normal on Friday.

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 conversations 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.

WEEKEND DISCUSSION, Aug. 20, 2020: AS THE STOMACH TURNS…

Nope, not talking about food, but it could pertain to how we feel about the food we just ate after we see some of the villains in our gone but not forgotten TNs. Yes, yes, yes, we have already talked about the worst villains, but in this discussion page, I want you to dig into your memory cells and think of those villains, not necessarily the main antagonist, but those supporting characters who are despicable, disgusting, and nauseating just at the mention of their names, For me, the first that come to mind happens to be a pair of low-down, conniving, nefarious, diablos who did nothing but relish in making the protag’s life miserable. I’m talking about “La Toña” (Claudia Ríos) and Fausto (Mike Biaggio) in La Doble Vida de Estella Carrillo.

WEEKEND DISCUSSION 8/6/20: Hot, Smokin' Hot, Hotter Than a Stolen Tamale

This Weekend Discussion is brought to you by Adriana Noel, from a location far away, and yet so near and dear to our Caray hearts.

As you might have guessed, I'm not  talking about the weather...

There are many valid, commendable, inspiring reasons to watch telenovelas. Learn Spanish, bonding moment with a family member, be part of the wonderful Caray Caray community, get entertained by silly plots and spectacular drama. But let's not forget one important aspect of telenovela watching: the male eye candy.

(I apologize in advance for any men who might be reading this post)

I could never rank the galans, because beauty is so subjective, but I will mention my favorite ones, my telenovios, how we so tenderly call them around here.

WEEKEND DISCUSSION 7/30/20: Who Can Resist a Wedding, Especially if it Goes Wrong - Bodas Interrupti


Urban Anthropologist (and I draw on her expertise again and again) graced us with Weekend Discussions of Weddings and Bodas Interrupti. Since I couldn’t find a Part II for the latter, I’ve elected to review and update Bodas Interrupti for this weekend. There also seems to be a trend where the HEA not always ends with a sumptuous wedding. Do Carayers miss those gorgeous wedding scenes full of romance and commitment?

You may refer to Urban’s The Wedding Album, Volume 1 (http://caraycaray.blogspot.com/2012/07/the-wedding-album-volume-1.html)

WEEKEND DISCUSSION 7/23/20: The Producers and Their Works


PRODUCERS TELENOVELOGRAPHIES

What do you think of the executive producers and their works? Have they gotten better as their body of work grew? Have they faded or taken an easier route (remakes) to the screen? What do you think of the Winners of the Best Telenovelas for different years? Do you agree? I offered my own opinion in some cases. Are the "less than best" attributed to them, the writers, directors or cast? There is no test next week, it’s for enjoyment only. You can skim through your favorite and not so favorite executive producers to get a taste of their taste in selecting stories to bring to the small pantalla. Maybe there is a pattern to their choices, maybe not.

The listings are not purported to be exhaustive, or to name every single producer who has ever made a telenovela we have enjoyed.  For the purposes of this list, most of the producers made telenovelas for Televisa and were shown on prime-time on Univision or made for Telemundo and recapped on CarayCaray. The Turkish offerings on Telemundo are not covered here, although some were recapped on CarayCaray.

If anyone wants to add a producer, title, date, main stars, please do so in your comments and I will gladly add them.

WEEKEND DISCUSSION 7/9/20: Where Have All The Padres Gone?






It has been somewhat noticeable in the last few years—and dozens of telenovelas— that the importance of religious guides as dispensers of spiritual wisdom, salve and balm have largely disappeared from telenovela stories. If they appear at all, they are rarely seen and often in lighter, shorter roles, like presiding over a wedding. What could this mean?

Where is a Padre Hottie (Diego Olivera-pictured above) in Triumfo del Amor (2010) when we want to fantasize about forbidden love? He seems to have been replaced by sterile consulting offices and clinics administered by serious sounding practitioners of medicine and mental health. They are the new dispensers of wisdom and offer a cure-all for what ails the seeker. Currently, Te Doy La Vida (2020) gives us a perfect example. Who now remembers that Nelson consulted a padre to rid himself of those “impure” thoughts he had been having about Ester? I don’t think we’ve seen any of the Villaseñor family members consult a religious figure, but instead we get doctors and psychologists to minister to Elena and Nico’s troubles. Granted, Nico did have a serious medical problem that no padre could have cured with prayer alone.

WEEKEND DISCUSSION 7/2/20: Telenovela Kitchens and Food


How important are kitchens and food in Caray’s favorite Mexican telenovelas?
Are they really reflective of the current cuisine, or only in the eyes of the writers and producers?




COCHINITA PIBIL WITH RED ONIONS


What about telenovelas de época? Did anyone cook and serve meals in Amor Real, Pasion or Alborada? Ah, but then there is El Hotel de los Secretos, the Mexican version of Upstairs/Downstairs, so of course the kitchen had to have a central role, which included chopping onions, burning bloody clothes and poisoning tea.

Has street food played any importance? Think Un Refugio Para el Amor and Lorenzo’s bicycle Taco business, prepared in Estela’s kitchen; think Amores Verdaderos and Nikki eating an Elote from a street vendor for the first time.
