I can't even imagine what it would be like to be a writer and to have to dodge all of those regulations. I also really like the term "post-show syndrome". It definitely describes the feeling that I get when I finish a tv show, however I can't even imagine what it is like for people who spent every night for months watching a telenovela and then all of a sudden having that experience be over.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07639315351638959014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335674606756014682.post-5067563096605343412016-03-02T17:45:24.015-08:002016-03-02T17:45:24.015-08:00I agree that the censorship on telenovelas was pre...I agree that the censorship on telenovelas was pretty ridiculous.

I greatly enjoy learning about foreign cultures myself and I have found that entertainment is a very effective way to learn about them. Forms of entertainment like music, television, and movies let communicate the way of life of a community; they can explain the values of a country or any issues currently being faced.Ernesto Perezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09384701059253004004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-335674606756014682.post-2743499817708845392016-02-26T21:31:53.074-08:002016-02-26T21:31:53.074-08:00I also didn't know that Ugly Betty originated ...I also didn't know that Ugly Betty originated from a telenovela before taking the course. It's very interesting to see how telenovelas can be adapted into a comedy for U.S. audiences such as for Jane the Virgin or Ugly Betty. I was surprised to see the wide reach that even one telenovela can have around the world such as Ugly Betty where we saw versions from Russia, India, Greece, etc. Taking this class has really opened my eyes to a very rapidly growing genre of television that is taking over the world by storm through globalization. Part of me wishes that we could get an extra week in the class as it was very entertaining to go through the various aspects of a telenovela.
