## What critics say

Audiences broadly appreciate the telenovela's soapy melodrama and family drama about a fallen high society woman, though it is a modest, formulaic show.

## Synopsis

Silvana Sin Lana (2016-2017) is a Telemundo telenovela created for American Spanish-language television, a single-season run of 121 episodes at 45 minutes each. A high society woman named Silvana, nicknamed Chivis and played by Sarah Mintz, loses everything and must move with her three daughters and her mother Trini (Adriana Barraza) into a middle-class neighborhood. Manuel Gallardo (Carlos Ponce) and Stella Pérez (Marimar Vega) add romantic and social complications as old assumptions about money, pride and loyalty are tested. The engine of the show is a family trying to hold its dignity while adjusting to modest rooms, shared chores and neighbors who see through its airs. Each episode is built from misunderstandings, public humiliations, quarrels over status and sudden reconciliations, with the story moving steadily across one long arc. The tone is melodramatic and warm, mixing sincere sentiment with comic friction in the manner of a telenovela. Fans of Ugly Betty, Jane the Virgin and Dallas will find familiar pleasures in its heightened emotion and reversals of fortune.
