Sin Senos No Hay Paraíso

I really wanted to enjoy this series but most of each episode is wasted on recaps. Seriously! Half of each episode is literally scenes from previous episodes. I HATE reruns and having to sit through multiple scenes that happened yesterday or last week is torture for me. Thankfully I can bypass the recaps since I'm watching on netflix but it's still a real pain. When I say recap, I don't mean at the beginning of the episode. i mean, throughout the episode. They use these scenes when a character is remembering something or when they touch a topic that happened in a previous scene. It's no exaggeration when I say half of each episode is spent showing you clips from previous episodes.

This is a good show for someone with short term memory who needs constant refreshers.

The series that made someone stop watching Narco shows. A good cast, have seen them in other shows. Reading that this was loosely based on someone's life, yes there was a real life Catalina changed everything. Hard to watch all that downhill drama knowing there are young girls living like this.

When the most beautiful woman ever, in my opinion, is the star of a Telemondo series it guarantees it ten out of ten. Of course it makes the whole basis of the screenplay ridiculous since Carmen would be desired by every man and every drug lord and definitely doesn't need sub pectoral prostheses. Indeed it would be a desecration of her beauty. Leaving that aside I have to say that I was surprised at how good the series was although like all these soaps they replay past scenes far too much. I was impressed by the quality of the acting too which gave the characters depth.

Sin Senos No Hay Paraiso was a soap opera transmitted in June of 2008, a series filled with GTA inspired action, drugs and breasts. It tells the life of a pretty Colombian girl named Catalina who suffers from not having her boobs big enough as her other friends, and dreams of having them operated in order to attract drug dealers and live a life of luxuries, she will have to face terrible consequences and personal struggles in order to pay the price of vanity she aspires, stories tell apart from her brother Bayron, a hit man, her troubled prostitutes friends and even horny adventures between her boyfriend and her mother back home. According to Telemundo, this is the king of soap operas for having the highest audience ever in Telemundo history, Beside this series and La Reina del Sur, I really don't have any other recommendations, I Have only watch other soap operas of Telemundo, like Pedro el Escamoso transmitted in 2001 and Juana La Virgen transmitted in 2002. If by any means you haven't watch this there's still few channels still transmitting it.

Never, until I saw "Without Breasts There Is No Paradise (2008), did I waste time watching "soaps". But having followed the ups and downs of not only Catalina Santana but her equally desperate friends, I can say without hesitation, that the series held me spell-bound from beginning to end. Jota the genius/clown, Jairo the vile abuser and Yessica the devil, revealed the heights (and depths) people will go to, to better themselves. Depravity and sainthood all rolled into one. A brilliant expose' into the deepest feelings and emotions of just about all of us at some point in our lives.I must have seen 10,000 movies over the years and this series has to be among the 8 or 10 best ever. Congrats and well done. GA.
