Synopsis

If you think the steamy sex, sensational scandals and heart wrenching heartbreak on Latino soap operas are a little extreme, just wait until you see what happens behind the scenes! Eva Longoria stars in this new comedy about Ana Sofia, a sizzling TV superstar, and her lively family of cast and crew all competing to steal the spotlight. When the cameras turn off, the drama turns up as Ana battles pesky network execs, drunken scriptwriters, narcissistic co-stars and an unfortunately familiar new on-screen love interest.

Konterr Brilliant and touching
Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
Casey Duggan It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
Asad Almond A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
Alek D I started watching Eva Longoria's new show Telenovela when it played on TV for the preview episodes and now I never miss an episode this show is so funny and makes me and my whole family laugh every week when we watch it. Each episodes has a different story but always has the same main characters in it. I find each episodes keeps getting more funny every week and I think I'm going to buy it on iTunes or something so I can have all the episodes. This is a great new show and I think everyone should start to watch it every week on Mondays at 8:30pm. I really do hope that NBC renews this show for a second season because so many people I know like watching it every week. I rate Telenovela 10 out of 10 stars.
Danny Blankenship 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!
Man99204 I cannot believe anything this NOT FUNNY would be given a series.The basic problem here is the writing. It is stale and awkward and totally devoid of anything even remotely funny. The characters are just embarrassingly bad - particularly the "Gay best friend".Eva Longoria just cannot do comedy. She has a very limited range. Comedy is not within that range. There is also absolutely NO chemistry between Longoria and Levy. Latinos deserve a genuinely funny sitcom - this is so NOT it. Watch it quickly, it will not be around past the initial ten episodes. Thank Goodness.
dreamgavino It's a funny coincidence that I am currently rewatching Desperate Housewives (I'm now on season 4) and I stumbled upon the pilot of this show. When it began, who do I see but Gabrielle Solis acting like how Gabrielle Solis would act if she were given her own show.The Good:Eva Longoria has great comedic timing. I really enjoyed the nice shots of the sets (clean, bright, colorful, etc.) There are some very laugh out loud moments (Don't look at me, I'm a monster LOL) Zachary Levi speaking Spanish? Yes please.The Bad:A bit predictable? You could only do so much with the plot. While it has a sort of campy charm, they overdid it a bit with the camp. Toning it down will help in making this show more digestible.All things considered, I'd watch it again. Hope it improves though.
