Ahhhh what about the one with Rebecca? I used to stay up at night to watch that ish and then discuss it in school with other classmates
Although I sincerely hated the fact the words did not match the actors mouth, never knew then it was in Spanish and was interpreted in English lol. Many years later, Now i can watch it in its original language lol

Second Chance. Isabella was a hottie abeg, The scene where she told her niece ‘you are weak and the world was not made for weak people’ hit a chord. I tell myself every time ‘the world was not made for weak people’ and I’m reminded never to be the victim.

Was it Wild rose that they had the song ‘rosa amante’, we sha sang it as ‘Rosa, Adamu, dem dey together, Adamu na farmer, Rosa dey sell Maggi, den dey live together for the rest of their lives?
Chai my days in Command.

Prepare to be heartbroken.
Luis ended up with Sheridan’s niece, Fancy. Sheridan ended up with Antonio, Luis long-lost elder brother.
The only couple that ended up together was Ethan and Theresa. Ivy & Sam and Julian & Eve also ended up together.
Ironically, it was best that AIT stopped it when they did.
The videos are on YouTube.

Cuando Seas Mia!!!! Paloma is my all time favourite telenovela heroine. Diego my all time favourit hero (heard they dated in real life too.) And i loved Fabian and Barbara. Smart crook and the crazy jealous wife. All time favourite scene was when Paloma beat up Barbara in the restroom!!!! OMG!!! I still watch that scene on YouTube to relive the experience. Lol.
The Rich Also Cry, Wild Rose, Secret of the Sands are also my favourites. Loved Passions like crazy. Theresa was my favourite. The girl craze for Ethan no be small.
Camilla is one soap opera where i was more fond of the villian Eduardo than the hero. Eduardo was soo cute. I crushed on the guy.
Hated Luisa Fernanda for making Carlos Eduardo cry in The Gardener’s Daughter. Only soap opera where i hated the heroine but had no choice but to accept her because the hero loved her. Mtschew!!!
But i HATED Rebecca. Never seen a set of confused people. The only person i liked was the villain, Princessa. She made me endure the show.

No Telenovela can beat Second Chance (Salvador and Isabella). It was and still is the best. The story line was awesome, the scripting was near-perfect and actors were superb!
Passions ko, passions ni. I got tired of it. How do you show one scene for two weeks? It was tiring. Thank God AIT stopped showing it.

That is how bellanaija made me remember. I never missed “when you are mine”. At a time my dad was in a different state and my mum had to learn how to record straight from TV to all those video tapes so my dad could binge watch it when he came home during the weekend. Memories o
I was even punished in school for telling my classmate’s the previous night’s episode. I was making noise . Twas worth it

No Telenovella could beat when u are mine. Story line cute actors superb. My Paloma. I was re christened Paloma because I didn’t miss any episode you can always count on me for a rerun. Had lots of friends because of that too. It’s the same reason am obsessed with every soap. Now it’s zee world. American soaps are shitty. Who remembers sunset beach meeen lol. My line up when you are mine, second chance, love spell, Theresa monserratt and Alejandro. Secret of the sound. Even Lorenzo’s wife Chaaaaii! Made fun

SECOND CHANCE (for the mexican telenovela’s)..i was so obsessed with the character salvador sorenza, i even went as far as telling my mum that i was going to marry him when i grow up (she laughed and told me he was already married, i cried ehnn, i even stopped wtaching it for a while) then for the philipinos, THE PROMISE (INA AND ANJELO)…another stalking started, i stalked jericho rosales like say ehn (he played the charecter angelo), guess what he wasnt married then..(lmao).

The body of Desire is my favorite of the four, because it starred the captivating Mario Cimarro. I first saw him in Pasion de Gavilanes and have been following him since.
