ok..i used to watch telenovelas, way way way back i even watch mexican telenovelas as the ladies there are soooo beautiful then there was the koreanovelas where the stories are cute and the ladies are also cute.. i like most Memories of Bali.. anyways now there are Filipino telenovelas that i do like, there are some with decent moral stories and there are also some that are irritating. lol.
So i do not watch those anymore as the stories exaggerate.. hahaha my office mates are now watching reruns of the new telenovela by Coco Martin ( i got to admit he is cute)..but i do not want to watch it as if i get hooked i get irritated with the story sooner or later and end up stressed. lol. i'd rather watch reruns of CSI.

Telenovelas have a way of capturing ones attention especially since their choice of characters is usually very attractive. The plots also keep you glued to the set always awaiting the miserable downfall of the bad guys and the victory of the good guys. At times the plots are so annoying seeing that they are sometimes so unreal and I must admit that makes me tune in to another station.

I tend not to finished some telenovelas I started before too because, as it goes, I find it quite boring. I don't feel the excitement along the way, so I give up.
My kids and I have only 2 telenovelas watching, the Biritera of GMA and Cityhunter of ABS.

Speaking of telenovelas, I must honestly say that I've never seen one, and I feel no interest in following them. Above all, then those such as "beautiful" which was broadcast for 30 years and you had to not miss even one episode to understand the unfolding of history.
You mentioned C.S.I. well, I'll tell you, I personally do not follow it, but my brother occasionally see. In fact, this would attract my interest, because, as I understand, every episode is a case unto itself.
However I do if I have to tell you frankly, I almost never watch TV except for TV news.

I am not fond of watching telenovelas, I prefer reality shows. I like real drama and real people involved. I saw Korean girls are really cute and I like their dress styles :)
