I hear a lot of people love Telenovela like they love Days of our Lives here
So a Telenovela is similar to a soap opera?
Yeah, it's Spanish. Do you know anything about it?
I'd never heard of them before.  Evidently it translates to "television novel".
Hmm, I've never actually watched it. Wonder if it's as good as a novel.
They have very long story lines.  In Spain they sometimes call them "culebrones", or "long snakes".
That's interesting, has it been around a long time?
I'm not certain how long they've been around.  Typically their episodes are only 30 or 45 minutes, though.
