TLRS Ep.40: Queen of the South

This week on The Little Radio Show we talk about the new USA network's show "Queen of the South." It's an American adaptation of the internationally-renowned Spanish-language telenovela "La Reina del Sur," which was produced by Telemundo and starred Kate del Castillo. It's also based on the book that started it all, authored by Arturo Pérez-Reverte. The USA version will star Alice Braga as Teresa Mendoza. Supporting cast includes Justina Machado, Peter Gadiot, Hemky Madera, and Gerardo Taracena. Here's a trailer for your enjoyment. Of course, it wouldn't be "The Little Radio Show" if we didn't veer off topic a little. This week we discuss the status of Latinos in entertainment and why we don't see enough roles for and by Latinos on TV and Film. "The Little Radio Show" is on HMSNetRadio.org on Thursdays at 2 pm (CST). The show hosts are Sandra Fernandez (@sandrasays), Juan Alanis (@juanofwords), and Anjelica Cazares (@la_anjel).
