Plot: I am currently (summer of 2006) watching "Barrera de Amor" on Univisión! I am not a soap opera fan, but have found myself enchanted with this telenovela, which I initially began watching to practice my Spanish skills. There is something about this series that draws me back to each episode, as enduring as the Thornbirds was when I watched it on TV as a child in the early 80s. "Barrera de Amor" has a classic Mexican feel to it--the scenery and cast are beautiful, and the acting is pretty decent, too--many characters, especially the beloved María Teresa, seem very sincere--as if you might want to know them in real life! The storyline is rather timeless--just the right balance of romance, redemption, love, hate & revenge, good & evil, that make it seem authentic, with a little melodrama added for spice and modern flavor. I was just online searching for more info on this telenovela, and it seems that it was released in Mexico last year, and was so successful that Spanish-speakers were eager for it to air in the US. As many telenovelas are later released for purchase on DVD, I am desperately hoping to find "Barrera de Amor" in this format--sadly, I missed the beginning of the series, since I didn't have Univisión at the time.
