That’s what I mean, he fell because of the lube, but Pietro planned that. Maybe to hurt D.O. or maybe just to keep him from rescuing Jean.

You never know. Look at how long that one series went with stupid dick pranks.

I love UB. It was so over the top in every good way.

But nephew sais something about “For my uncle!” and spat on D.O.’s fallen body. I assume the fall was intentional on nephew’s part. Besides, if Jean got tied up, nephew might have probably realized the whole story.

That had to be D.O.’s place, and that’s the impression too. Since it’s been several months after the last scene, I don’t think that’ll happen.

Funny that you mentioned Ugly Betty. My memory is very hazy about that show, but I watched both Spanish (through my country’s presumably illegal dub) American version of it. That was one of my first shows I watched that got me into dramas in general. The american one ends too soon for me.

I assumed D.O. fell because of the lube. Pietro tried to stop him from going down there, and I think it was because of the stairs being slick and not Jean being tied up.

Wasn’t it the same house? Now I can’t remember. I thought it was D.O.’s place. I kept getting the impression he was the one with the money and Jean was someone who worked for him, then worked under him. I bet both versions of Pietro come back. Men loves special effects.

I’m into telenovelas too even though my Spanish is so rusty I have no idea what’s going on. But sometimes I’ll just sit and watch. Or make do with American adaptations like Jane the Virgin or Ugly Betty. I still miss the latter. And I can’t get enough of Queen of the South.

I thought maybe when Pietro came back he was supposed to be the uncle. But he looked the same age so that’s what confused me. They could’ve silvered him up a little to distinguish between the two characters, but I guess all their extra prop money went to subtitles and stair lube. And since Tio-Pietro knew where the kitchen was, that means D.O. was living in the same place he lived with the uncle…with the man who he ordered to kill him? That’s fucked up. Almost as fucked up as not fucking up a tied up Jean Franko. And in the end, neither Pietro got revenge. So sad.

The other entries were just as kooky. I’m still laughing at the “You can have sex with Ken because he’s really 25! I’m a doctor!” plot in the last entry. Doctor Fox, did you check that birth certificate before or after you accidentally fucked Massimo? You’re right though, any good telenovela is supposed to outrageous in some way. I might need to watch the series again. For the content. Not because it was filled with sexy, hot-bodied guys having hairy and/or sweaty sex.

If they didn’t make Gabriel and Pietro somewhat look the same in this series, I doubt that thought crossed the writers mind when they wrote Telenovela.

I was wondering why nephew!Pietro wasted so much lube on the stairs. Now I ‘m confused whether D.O.’s fall was because nephew pushed him or because of the lube. What nephew said before his fall suggested the former, but the setup at the beginning suggested the latter.
So the third scene happens in Jean’s house and not D.O.’s? Given the uncle’s status as D.O.’s former lover, I’m not surprised if uncle knew where the kitchen was. Jean coming to D.O. means it was in D.O.’s, right?

At least the nephew thought he got revenge. That storyline probably ended because there should be two Pietros apprearing and getting fucked by the husbands.

Yeah, that one cracks me up. The reveal that Ken manipulated the brothers with his young looks make me laugh even harder, although that kinda means the two brothers were into younger ones. Fox’s scene with Klein and Massimo was kinda messy in outrageous way too. “We have a surprise that Klein almost find out! Let’s pretend we have sex for camouflage!”

I’ve long acknowledged my fondness of telenovela. It’s charmingly outrageous in a way. My mom likes to make fun of me for saying how outrageus they are but still comes back to watch.

Of course you’d definitely watch it again because of the story, not the hot sex.

The uncle is alive. The Pietro disguising as a female nurse (lol) IS the uncle, not the nephew. If you really want me to take that paralyzed subplot seriously, I’ll pick between “power-of-love” cliché and diagnosis manipulation as the reason why D.O. is able to walk again. It’s a telenovela after all; convoluted but not that deep in the end (that feels like any MEN series nowadays).
Edit: Wow, I came out as underestimating your observational skill while it’s mine that’s lacking, sorry there.

I seriously laughed when Gabriel’s character implied Damon’s character was so stupid he wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between two guys whose similarity is only their preference to bottom. The whole plot apparently relies on a character being that dumb for it to work. At least it won’t involve special effects or cheap latex. Oh well.

Wtf?! Wow.

I’m still trying to figure out that telenovela plot with Pietro and if the uncle was alive or not and why did they look the same and how the paralyzed boyfriend became unparalyzed.

But I think this setup is even worse. In what country do Pietro and Garbriel look or sound alike? Damon isn’t dumb. The Men writers are.

It’s a little strange seeing Damon topping Gabriel. But I’m okay with it. Because he’s hot.

It has Pietro in it, of course I’m interested.
