I let my guard down because the spanish/spanish speaking series have been doing quite well in the wlw department lately but in this case it has been a huge disappointment. I also found the writing very disconnected, in one episode they had characters say how Maite and Camino’s love was too strong to end like this and in the next one how Maite would never come back. Like wtf -.-

Ah, yeah, you gotta be careful with the historical shows. Those seem to have the most scope for things going wrong. I’m lucky to be able to concentrate on non-soap ships recently, but yeah, I can’t blame people for getting into them, they really did look good on paper (and canvas :P). Plus, Camino’s actress being actually married to a woman, it definitely made us think they’d put more effort into the story.

Did you keep up with Maitino/Acacias 38? I can’t help thinking how the writers have just used fans for ratings and wasted a good storyline at the same time. So disappointing :(

Ooof, yeah, bud, that was a blow. Yet another soap f/f couple being suddenly and completely and illogically wrecked. The way they were writing it, I wasn’t sure they’d commit, but at the same time, it seemed a story with effort, falling in love with art as a backdrop. But Maite wasn’t really embedded into the story… Still, I didn’t think it’d implode this quickly.

Woah! I had NOT seen the kiss with subs. Makes it kinda better. Do we know how much older Maite is? Camino seems so young. But again ? by Spanish TV. Thanks for the links! That playlist is the one I had found. ?More content

Hmm, I don’t actually know, I don’t know much about them at all. I don’t think Maite’s supposed to be that old, when she arrived, people acted like she’s still a youngish fashionable woman for whom it’s a little scandalous to be living alone. I don’t think she’s reached any kind of “safe” older woman status at all. 

And yeah, when I first saw the playlist it only had a few clips subbed, they’re being added apace.
