I thought I was taking a break from recapping until this series appeared and I was hooked!
Directly from the promos:
"If a love from another life found you in these times, would you recognize him?"
"There are loves that never die."
If you are in the mood for something different, Univision has taken its series “El extraño retorno de Diana Salazar” off of its VIX service and will be showing it on Univision in 90 minute episodes on Sunday nights.
The first season originally had eight 41 min. episodes. I may be wrong, but I suspect that Univision will be editing out the nude and overtly sexual content in the original seriesThe series is based on the 1988 telenovela of the same name. It is a supernatural love story spanning the 17th and 21st centuries in Mexico which is perfect if you are into period AND contemporary productions.
The main cast includes:
Angelique Boyer - Diana Salazar/Leonor de Santiago
Sebastián Rulli - Mario Villareal/Eduardo de Carvajal
Arap Bethke - Joaquín Nuñez/Lucas de Treviño
Cassandra Sánchez Navarro - Irene Vallejos/Inés Betancourt
Lorena Graniewicz - Malena
Erick Chapa - Gael
Sergio Mur - Gonzalo
Hope to see you on the patio! You can expect recaps to be posted on Mondays some time.
I'm looking forward to it. The plus of recapping this is it is only one per week, right? They better not pull it after 2 episodes like La Lola teased me with on ViX , moving it to the subscription service.
ReplyDeleteHmmm. Jarifa, I'm a bit confused. Is the episode airing Sunday the very beginning of the novela? I read your description of the plot, and it interested me. But googling it mentioned it airing in 2024. I got the part about it having been on Vix. But if I watch this weekend, I will see it from the beginning, verdad?
ReplyDeleteNovelera, yes, you will see it from the start. ; )
ReplyDeleteI hope it isn't censored to death. It really annoys me when that happens.
ReplyDeleteJarifa, I enjoyed the quotes you noted - this does look really good!
ReplyDeleteMy high def channel will be running this late Sunday night, I am going to try and stay up and watch as to be able to follow along with your sure to be exceptional recap.

Jarifa, thank you for this information . I have been watching the promos for this show , and I am looking forward to watching . I like Angelique and Rulli together . My tv guide lists this show from 8 to 10 pm Sunday on Uni , but my tv schedule is usually wrong when listing the Uni shows .
ReplyDeleteI'm confused. How many episodes will there be? Wiki says Season 1 was 8 episodes but it has been renewed for a second season but doesn't mention how many episodes Season 2 will be.
ReplyDeleteAre they still not doing English captions? I had to move to Telemundo when they quit doing English captions at Univision so bummed I love Angelique and Sebastian together.
