Extremely Disappointed

"Having watched many telenovelas since 1995, I feel like an expert on them. When i originally watched Huracan when it aired on Univision network, it was shown in the afternoon and it was on for 2 hours a day 5 days a week. I enjoyed it very much so the 2 star rating that i am giving it is not because it is a bad novela because it is actually a good one. I am giving it 2 stars because watching it on dvd, it has been edited so much and the editing has taken away from so much of the story. So much is missing, the music that was originally used has been changed completely. The company that is putting these novelas on dvd, is not doing a good job of actually showing the novelas as gthey were presented originally on tv. I believe that they are being mass produced and the quality is not good. Since Huracan was the first novela that i brought on dvd, and since i was disappointed with it, i will not be buying anymore of these novelas on dvd. I don't think that they should be edited and that they should be shown on dvd the way that were shown on tv. The novelas are just like our tv shows that they put on dvd except that our tv shows are put out and shown completely on dvd where as the novelas they are putting on dvd are not. They edit them way too much and people are really missing out on alot. So maybe the distribution and production company that puts these novelas on dvd need to be told that they should show each novela unedited and in its entirety."
Big novela fan found Novelas R Us

"I am a big novela fan, and just like the others, I felt that I was cheated when I buy the novelas on DVD. So i was surfing the net one day and came upon this website "Novelas R Us" which contains complete novelas randing from like 15 to 40 DVD's. I just bought Corazon Salvaje and am going to wait a little while to buy this one. I can't wait!! It was only like 65 bucks too (although some shorter ones cost less and the longer ones a little more)."
