Telenovela

I remember years ago when the hot and sexy Eva Longoria was on the hit night soap "Desperate Housewives" as a sexy colored bra wearing self centered wife who cheated on her husband who caused trouble. And it was a pleasure to watch her! Now she returns with this Spanish like soap "Telenovela" and it's real funny and tries to be a catch with the witty and smart lines! Eva is Ana a soap actress who's trying to make her way after a break up and it's an adventure to deal with the other cast members every episode as it's about finding love and friendship while contending with off and on the set drama. And it's a tease of laughs and sex appeal as Ana dresses very sexy a real eye candy treat! Anyone should know anything with Eva Longoria in it should be a watch she's so sexy!

This is a behind-the-scenes type of comedy about the daily shooting of a telenovela (spanish speaking soap opera) and the lives of people involved with its creation.

It is stylish, colorful with good comedic timing, decent jokes and good over-the-top performances from the cast. Mainly it exploits the stereotype of a Diva, the flashy popular female protagonist, who only cares about her image. The fun starts right from the beginning when you realize that the main star of the Telenovela (Eva Longoria) doesn't even ...speak Spanish!

Although they *not* belong in the same genre, it is unavoidable to compare this, with another telenovela-ish series, Jane the Virgin (which I stopped watching after its first season finale). Telenovela is far more entertaining and light and fun and spares you from watching an actual melodrama.

In a sentence: This is a witty comedy that will keep you entertained.

i Love it... expect the show to be light and funny. A nice watch if you just want a silly/ slap stick show. i love how all the characters make me laugh with them and at them. it kinda makes fun of the Spanish soaps, which i love cuz my sisters use to watch them and how silly i thought they were. its nice to see Eva doing a show thats in her element. i always find myself wanting more. the show reminds me of happy endings, its packed with funny and embarrassing moments. the show is not for everyone, and to have a comedy thats extremely well rounded like modern family is hard to do, so don't expect a show like that. if you want a silly and quick laugh, this show is for you.

I had always been meaning to check the show out over the years but never got around to it and recently I've been watching a lot of comedy shows that have only lasted one season and this one was really funny. I understand why people didn't like the concept of a very Americanized or English speaking telenovela star it really didn't embrace the telenovela reality, buts its a super cheese sitcom. They make a lot of jokes about the tropes of the telenovela shows and I would have really appreciated seeing more of those evil twin style episodes. There's nobody that's annoying in the cast. I wish there were more episodes.

Telenovela is a treasure. It really deserved more seasons.

The cast is hilarious.

It's a great quick binge watch, and it delivers plenty of laughs.

It's hard to say who is the funniest, because the entire cast is perfection in how they deliver their lines. The cast chemistry is amazing.
