  • Resumen

  • Telenovelas are ridiculous, over-the-top, and absurdly entertaining. But if you're thinking that they are just frivolous fun—think again. Telenovelas have had an outsized influence on Mexico, from helping to bring down the world’s most notorious drug lord “El Chapo” to increasing the sales of birth control. But as Mexico changes, telenovelas are struggling to keep up with a new wave of daring television. I speak to Mexico’s first openly gay telenovela actor, Rebelde's Christian Chavez, one of its brightest new stars, Dario Yazbek Bernal, and the lead writer of Netflix’s La Casa de las Flores, Mara Vargas Jackson, about how their work is shattering taboos in Mexican television.
