An unique and briliant telenovela

[ae240307 · 9/10 · 22 April 2018]

This novela was aired in my country Indonesia at the year of 2000. I gotta say it's one of the best novela ever made. It has a very unique plot, unlike other telenovelas, which most of the main plot is a poor woman falls in love with a rich boy, and the man's parents didn't agree, etc... Yo Amo Paquita Gallego gives you something different.

It tells story about Paquita, a woman who lives under a curse. She married 7 times, and all of her husbands always ended dies. She has love of her life since childhood, Andres Hidalgo, but she always avoid Andres because she was afraid Andres will die like her former husbands. After various of obstacles, Paquita and Andres finally can unite.

This novela have everything: romance, comedy, drama, thriller, and suspense. The way how Paquita's husbands died either can make you crying, laugh, or even shouted to the television. The lead stars: Christina Umana as Paquita and Andres Juan as Andres Hidalgo really great and they have amazing chemistry. The theme song also great as well! This novela is a masterpiece. Too bad they won't aired it again...

9/10

Great cast all together in a telenovela!!!!!!

Yo amo a Paquita Gallego is one of the best Colombian telenovelas made the last 10 years ........A very intresting plot that make you don't want to loose an episode........ The story basically takes place on the steps of the protagonist........

Following the adventures and the problems of the young Paquita Gallego(Cristina Umana)to make her life better and live at last happily with the love of her life Andres. A brilliant actresses who act like a co-protagonist named Victoria Gongora and has the role of Rina Marcela tries to make the life of Paquita a living hell in order to keep her away from her beloved Andres..... The cast and the plot is never boring because changes every time. New actors added depenting on the problem Paquita has. Some of them to support her and other to distroy her......

From all these brilliant casting those who are really very nice are Kennet Martin(one of Paquita's enemies)Juan Pablo shuk is a very talented new comer and also the young Venezuelan Actor acting as Esteban named Lino Martone...

Of course the main couple Cristina Umana and Juan Andres are very nice together and there is chemistry... I could tell one of the most succesful couples in the history of the Telenovelas..... The theme song of the serial is sing by the protagonist Juan Andres which is very melodic and with great romantic lyrics.

I wish Cristina and Andres play again together in a telenovela because as good and talented are the other actors the main couple is that which make a telenovela intresting.
