American Telenovella Adaptation?


I think with the rise in popularity of telenovellas in the american market. See up coming shows on MY Network TV. That I think a Translation of the story lines of this novella should come to american screens because it is so captivating even though I know very little Spanish but Michelle Vieth is so hot with the glasses on. Do you think this would be a good plan.

um i honestly dont like the idea of changing the telenovela to brign it to u.s. market, they will ruin it and they will use dumb actors look at betty la fea they made it into an american show and it looks bad for the real soap which took place in 1999 or so (i dont remember) is like making "rebelde" an english soap with paris hilton, in it it will suck big time. well jmo thanks

I don't really like that idea too much either. It took place in 1998/1999 and things have really changed a lot for teens these days. Just keep it the way it is and don't try to Americanize it. It holds a special place in a lot of people's hearts.
