As Spanish-language TV in the U.S. continues to move away from the sappy storylines of the telenovela, one network is banking on a combination of music, action and romance to grab viewers.
Telemundo, NBCUniversal’s fast-growing Spanish-language network, will debut Guerra de Idolos (War of Idols) tonight. Think Empire, but in Spanish.
