Soap operas (a piece of a speech)
Soap operas
I’m going to tell you some things about soap operas that i think all of you already know.
Well, there are a lot of kinds of soap operas,but if you think a Little about the plot (the argument) of each one of those, basicaly they are the same thing; specially mexican ones.
You always see the same characters for example:
The female protagonist (the good one) always, as a rule, starts been a cute but poor and dirty girl, or a very ugly but inteligent girl, and in the end she will be preatty beauty and powerful. Her name will be something like maria Guadalupe, maria de los angeles, maria juana, maria soledad, maria juana,oh, and she always ask for help to the virgin of Guadalupe.
Then, the male protagonist, he is a tall and good looking guy with a lot of money and every girl wants to be with him; but for any reason he falls in love with the por or the ugly girl. He use to have a long name like jose manuel Alejandro , luis miguel Roberto o Eduardo jesus Alonso, and a lastname like Montenegro, Montalvo, or something like that.
And then the villain, the bad girl which use to be the mother or mother in law of the male protagonist, or his ex girlfriend which always is hotter than the female protagonist.
Now, what is what always happen in a soap opera
1 the characters die at least 3 or 4 times
2 somebody loses their memory
3 the bad girl pretends to be pregnant by the male protagonist
4 the female protagonist is the lost daughter of a rich family
5 the female protagonist’s son is stolen
6 the maid hear a secrect and then she is murdered
7 the characters speak alone
8 in the end the bad people gets mad and poor
Well, there are anoter soap operas like the ones in a school with problematic guys, girl with short skerts and boys with tatoes and motorciles or something like that, and other ones with gangsters and sluts, but the agurments are almost the same that I said before.
