this is a new mexican soap . i think it's going to be interesting. it just started today. i hope it is as interesting as WUAM. Soap opera "Lorenzo's Wife" by Iguana Productions and Venevision International is a story that portraits a perfect couple that actually is not. There are many missing ingredients that the perfect couple misses and that turns the story around to keep viewers plugged to their TVs. Isabella (Andrea Montenegro) is a rich woman, who wants to re-conquer the love of Lorenzo (Guillermo Perez). But Lorenzo is married and his wife Laura (Carolina Tejera) aware of Isabella's wish won't let go. Laura is married not for love. She gains Lorenzo's love when competing for it with Isabella. Laura realizes on love when it is too late for the couple to continue together. See it Monday through Wednesday at 10p.m. AIT , NIGERIA

Hey guys you are really discouraging me watching this telenovela without even seeing the first episode! Well, right now, my TV now speaks SPANISH - official language of Mexico considering the number of Mexican telenovelas on Nigeria TV now after that soar away success of WUAM. Well let's still give it another week b/4 condemning it. But truly, the success of telenovelas is really the first episode but some do pick up later though. I fear with all these comment it might just end up being drabby! MISSED IT YESTERDAY ANYWAY!

i concur, its too early to pass judgement. however ait should know that they ought to give viewers something that equals if not surpass the standard of WUAM so as to sustain the interest of viewers in mexican soaps. i have not started watching this and i hope it turns out fine else i'll dump it. one time!

I expect it to be bettter than When You Are Mine, but if you're already a fan of DIego and Paloma you won't be impressed with this one no matter how good it is! When You Are Mine has first mover advantage.

First, I think bigtee is the only one who has really hit the nail on the head! As much as we love the telenovelas, can we have Nigerian soaps that can be as interesting as them?! I just hope we don't end up like the Americans who are complaining that Mexican telenovelas have become more popular than their once loved soap opera (GOOD FOR THEM THOUGH) but I wish we can use this opportunity to make our stories grow. By the way, Fabian’s acting on last night’s edition of WUAM was wow!!!! I was just like, shouting all the way - the last scene of yesterday's edition. I just can bring to mind any Nigerian artist that can recreate that mood. That guy, despite being the villain was too good; I feel he is the hero of that telenovela. Now, I saw last night's episode of Lorenzo's wife but I slept off after about a couple of scenes but then not probably because I was bored perhaps I just slept off. I did notice that, unlike WUAM, where the acting is so flawless in sync with its’ transliterations, Lorenzo’s wife isn't gotten it nor do the other telenovelas on the other channels! All about camila (MBI, MITV, RSTV etc), WOMAN OF MY LIFE (GALAXY) and others that all those guys that get on the bandwagon of what sell are throwing at us now. As usual, it isn’t rocket science that all of this telenovelas will become boring, like, REALLLLYYYYY BO-RINGGGGGGG SOON!!!!!!!!!! Well, Ann Marien, I think you can get to watch some Mexican telenovelas on Ghanaian TV like metro TV and even GTV, I believe, after-all Ghana is the hub of all the imported telenovelas, it thrives there! And if you are missing home a bit, get hold of some DSTV decoder and watch good old AIT, CHANNELS and all other Lagos based TV Channels expect perhaps, GALAXY TV. GOOD LUCK!
WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK OF THE NEW STAR ADVERT IN COMPARISON WITH THE GUINNESS VERSION ( TOO SIMILAR ISN"T IT?)

@ ontheair. thaks a lot for the contribution. yeah, the star and guiness adverts are similar alright. i think the star advert makers got the idea from the guiness advert but there is no problem cause the star advert is still kind of lame.

well i don't think we should classify the soap if you listened to the presenter's speech before the first episode you will understand that this soap is going to be very intresting, well not as intresting as wuam.

Oooooooooooohhhhhhhhhh GOD! not again! don't tell me they are about to start another stupid "diego and parloma" on TV. all thanks to World Cup, the allergy people suffered from that stupid show was drastically reduced. now there are introducing a new one. just the names alone are depressing. the woman of my life. camila. when you are mine. before you know it, they would be introducing "Condoms are not the answer"  believe me people, watching Teletubbies for 3 agonising hours is better. even though, that one in itself is a near-death experience

well i don't think we should classify the soap if you listened to the presenter's speech before the first episode you will understand that this soap is going to be very intresting, well not as intresting as wuam.  thank u jare my brother. this is a summary of this soap. Laurita (Carolina Tejera) and Lorenzo (Guillermo Perez) have what everyone considers "the perfect marriage." He's handsome, refined, educated, rich and he adores his wife. She's beautiful, elegant, a true society lady: the ideal mate for a man like him. However, since not all that glitters is gold, there's something wrong with this couple. Laurita is bored with her marriage and this simple fact sparks off a series of events that no one will be able to control. It all begins with the appearance of Alex, a young and frivolous opportunist whose principal occupation is seducing rich women by using his job as a "personal trainer" to get close to them. When Laurita meets Alex (Yul Burkle), she feels an overwhelming physical attraction. As she continues to see him at the gym she attends, they become friends and, eventually, passionate lovers. Convinced that she is in love with Alex, Laurita makes the difficult decision to leave Lorenzo. But when she speaks to her attorney, he reminds her that the prenuptial agreement she signed will leave her penniless if she files for divorce. Crazy about Alex, but not willing to give up all the luxuries she is accustomed to, Laurita decides to find another solution. The plan is to have Lorenzo be the one to ask for the divorce and voluntarily give her half of his assets. How will she accomplish this? By making sure that he falls in love with another woman. The perfect candidate is Silvia (Adriana Louvier), Lorenzo's new assistant, a pretty, simple and sweet young woman. In cohorts with her best friend, fashion designer Giacomo Bonicelli, Laurita approaches Silvia, offering her an "innocent" friendship, and gradually molds her into the kind of woman Lorenzo would be drawn to. Little by little, Lorenzo and Silvia begin to feel strongly attracted to each other - but things are not as easy as Laurita expected, as Silvia is already in love with Alex, her boyfriend of several years. Laurita's scheme becomes even more complicated with the arrival of Isabela (Andrea Montenegro), Lorenzo's former fiancee, who returns from abroad intending to take over Lorenzo's company. Isabela is bitter because Laurita stole her man, and now she wants to get back at both of them. On the road to revenge, Isabela becomes Alex's lover, causing a lot of headaches for Laurita. In time, Silvia and Lorenzo acknowledge that a deep, true love has flourished between them, and Lorenzo finally decides to ask Laurita for a divorce. But now that everything is turning out the way she planned, Laurita realizes what she is about to lose, so she changes her mind and launches into a fierce war to recover Lorenzo. In the end, who will be Lorenzo's woman? Which one will be victorious?
