I can’t really think of a telenovela that’s grabbed me as much as Sin Senos No Hay Paraiso. After a lot of guesses as to what would happen in the final episode, it all came to a halt last night, as the actual final episode of Sin Senos No Hay Paraiso aired on Telemundo.

You knew that the telenovela was going to be faithful to the actual book, and in the actual book as well as in the Colombian version, Catalina Santana the protagonist dies. The question concerning Telemundo’s version was not that Catalina was going to die, but how.

It was apparent from a previous episode, that she was too cowardly to try to commit suicide herself, so last night’s episode, showing her planning a hit on Yessica with Pelambre, but then camouflaging as Jessica’s stand-in so that she would be the hitmen’s victim, is startling and unsurprising at the same time.

Isn’t it ironic that while Catalina was basically a self-centered, yet loveable brat throughout the novela, she reserved all her unselfish deeds for the end. She tells Octavio where Marcial lives, and he’ll surely get reward money from governmental authorities from telling them of the narco’s whereabouts and have a juicy story to tell in his novel that will be a bestseller, surely.

Cata leaves her mother in the loving care of her former boyfriend Albeiro, and breathes a sigh of relief once she finds out that drug dealer El Titi is not murdered during the Colombian police ambush, but gets prison time in the United States.

If you missed the startling conclusion of this telenovela, I’ve got the goods right here for you.

And you thought that after Sin Senos No Hay Paraiso, Telemundo wouldn’t be able to top itself. El Rostro de Analía has had my attention on and off for the past months, but hey the other night Analía Moncada started to have flashbacks about her past and is beginning to realize that she’s not Analía Moncada at all but rather the presumed dead Mariana Montiel.

Dang, it’s getting juicy.

And for those of you tontas out there who are missing this great show, let me break El Rostro de Analía down for you. CONTINUE READING

Carmen Villalobos is soooo our chica. As Catalina Santana the vain teenager who gets a breast enlargement to conquer the world, you don’t know if you should hate her, but you’d rather love her.

We’re glad that Carmencita’s not in any Genesis Rodriguez-like escandalos, you know where you’re like underage niña and you get seduced by the leading man (cough, cough Mauricio Islas) in a hit telenovela (cough, cough Prisoniera, also starring Gabriela Spanic) that you both are starring in.

Carmen’s dad was acatually a cop in Columbia, so maybe that’s got something to do with it? Anyway, Carmen is Telemundo’s biggest star right now, and she’s aware of it, thank you very much, telling TV Y Novelas magazine:
