JP is incredible, phenomenal actor. The new direction of the show is what killed it. Why make Ana pregnant now? That should have been earlier. They botched some great stories that were worth exploring. For example Diego's father and his attempt to cure his son's sexual identity. Cassius's bullying and his Haitian father threatening to send him to Haiti for misbehaving, that is so true in the Haitian community, I can identify. Paty's sexual difficulties. Leo's relationship with his abusive father. The possibilities were endless. I wish the writers had explored these topics in depth. My favorite character Gilberto. So funny, I will miss this show.Yasminehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00482461099725926812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2585163331194032530.post-91117146524533033972012-06-12T19:44:05.476-04:002012-06-12T19:44:05.476-04:00I totally agree with your analysis of UMEM and RP ...I totally agree with your analysis of UMEM and RP two of the novelas I watch or rather in the case of UMEM used to watch religiously until the writers botched the stories. What attracted me to this novela was the promising love story of Cris and Marisa. Their first encounter @ dimwit Amelia, their subsequent lovemaking that first night. Yes, there were obstacles between Crissa, but they had enough love to conquer. I hate that the writers threw sara in the mix and turn her into the winner. She never got caught for any of her sins. That was the problem. The never ending need for Marisa to always be so strong, afraid to let such a good man like Cris love her. C'mon, the stories would have been so much more appealing had the writers allow Marisa to fight for her man. Instead she just give him up on national TV no less while Sara continue to walk free. The last straw for me was how they just frame Marisa with these jewels and throw her in prison while Lalo suffered. Kudos to Cris for being ever vigil @ Lalo's bedside. That alone should have brought Crissa together stronger than before. What does Marisa do to show her love cop out with this lame unselfish act. I'll pass. The show should have ended a long time ago or @ the least switch the writers. I could have done a much better job. I'm just saying.Yasminehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00482461099725926812noreply@blogger.com
