Return of Killer Toes from Telemundo

[ftlaudft]

Rafael Amaya, the serial killer who went up in flames in the gran final of ""Alguien te mira"' (Somebody is Watching You), has returned buff and barefoot in "'La Reina del Sur"" (The Queen of the South) which is now beginning its 3rd week. The new novela will run for a total of 12 weeks. Rafael has a scene by a swimming pool in which he lifts up his lovely foot, exposing the sole, and I hope someone can catch and cap it.

This is the hottest soap that Telemundo has produced, a superproduction that has gorgeous photography in Mexico, Melilla in North Africa, and Galicia in northwest Spain. It's been breaking all records for Telemundo and Latinos all over the US are now glued to their TV sets along with many Anglos since captions in Spanish and English are provided.

On the down side, I have to report Rafael is killed off early in the game. But a new love interest for Kate del Castillo appears in the shape of Iván Sánchez, who plays the part of Santiago. Santiago is lean and tough and the side view of his feet in flip-flops was enough to addict me. Then last week he finally bedded Kate and after showering he walked around the apartment barefoot, finally sitting down with a towel draped around him. He crossed his legs, exposing his lovely soles and what more can I say......

When they finish that trans-Atlantic bridge, I'm going to be the first to roller-skate across!

Mmm, sounds delicious. Will try to find it and post the caps.

Thanks for the alert, ftlaudft. Much appreciated! You don't happen to have more info. on the episode when those scenes appeared...just to make the search easier. Thanks.

Hi SnowFanatic! "La Reina del Sur"' is now entering its 3rd week, so tonight's episode will be the 11th out of 62. The swimming pool scene with Rafael occurred in the first week and was remembered by Kate del Castillo in the 2nd week. The love scene between Santiago and Teresa (Kate del Castillo) was chapter 9.

If anyone is wondering what the big fuss is all about with Latinos and the telenovelas, this might be a good one to watch. Some of the greatest have come from Univisión, which has a long tradition of great drama and great acting. The telenovelas of Univisión include "'Esmeralda,"' "'Amor real,"' ''El manantial,"' and "'Alborada."' Anything with Fernando Colunga or Daniela Romo would be worth watching.

But Telemundo has been producing novelas of top quality lately. This superproduction has been getting rave reviews froom everybody. If you're bi, you can watch with the Spanish captions on or off. And if you're mono, just click on the English captions. There's so much action and good acting with top notch photography, I can't imagine anyone will be disappointed.

I should mention too that here in the States we also get the best of the Brazilian novelas, but unfortunately they're always dubbed in Spanish, so we never get to hear the original Portuguese.

Hey ftlaudft, thanks for the info. Helpful!

The scene with Rafael Amaya can be seen in episode 6, but unfortunately it is almost impossible to cap. It's so quick and blurry, you can barely see anything. I would have to find some very hq version to get a decent cap.
Now, the scene with the other guy is also very quick but we get a much better shot, so here's some caps:

Yes, SnowFanatic, that's it! Thanks a million!

My castanets, please! I feel a fandango coming on!

Discriminating viewers will want to keep an eye on Santiago's buddy Lalo Veiga, played by the actor Pablo Castañón. He was barefoot in flip-flops, sitting on a wharf in yesterday's chapter, but it was not close enough to view with utter abandon. You could see that his toes are pleasant and plump, however, and there was also a scene in which he was sleeping in his underwear. His body is lean and totally munchable. A beautiful face, too!

I have to admit the guy out of the whole cast who really turns me on the most is a minor character, the evil Moroccan cousin of Alí. I think his name is Farid. I would really love to scrutinize his feet. Yes, he's a nasty former policeman, a killer and a smuggler. But no one's perfect and he is SO handsome! I sure wouldn't mind being scrutinized by him. Well, it's just that I've never been scrutinized by a Moroccan before, and I believe in being open to new experiences.

They killed off Yousef Farid, the evil but oh! so handsome Moroccan, in last night's installment of "'La Reina del Sur."' Yousef had captured Teresa (Kate del Castillo) and was torturing her when Santiago rescued her and shot Youself in a scuffle.

Now I'll never know what Moroccan feel smell like! The saying in the street was that Yousef's feet smelled like a delicate blend of cheese and angel farts.

At least I still have Santiago and his skinny sidekick Lalo to dream of. (sigh!)

Santiago (Iván Sánchez) had a great barefoot scene in Thursday night's episode (in the last 10 minutes of chapter 14.) He is sitting on the beach at Melilla overlooking the Mediterranean in North Africa. His left foot sole, sandy and wrinkled and deliciously naked, is facing the viewer. It was almost enough to make me give up my vow of chastity. Clone 'im and bone 'im, I say!

Oh, that is so beautiful! Thank you, Fructis! I have died and gone to heaven!
