Telenovela will air the finale for its first season later tonight on NBC, and Eva Longoria spoke about the comedy and its chances for a second season in a new interview with TV Insider.
The actress is still hopeful that NBC will pick up the comedy for a season two, but she has not heard anything yet.
She said:
“Not yet. But we’re hoping. NBC has been super happy with the ratings and the critical acclaim. They were blown away by all our great reviews. And they’ve been 100 percent supportive from, “Let’s shoot more promos!” to “Hey, let’s name Monday Queens of Comedy Night!” They’ve had great social media ideas and are always thinking about how to help the show. It’s a great vote of confidence.”
If the series is picked up for a second season by NBC, Longoria does have ideas of how to improve the series. She shared some of the changes she has in mind for season two during the interview.
“I think our latter episodes in the season had the right formula, the right balance. But I do want to introduce stronger B stories featuring the other characters. In Season 1 we were heavily dependent on Ana Sofia but I want to branch out and get into the personal lives of her friends and coworkers, learn more about their histories, follow them home.”

I absolutely love the show! Its like like the Spanish TV version of 30 Rock. I am really impressed with Eva’s comedic abilities and the character’s really compliment each other. There are a lot of episodes I have to re-watch as I miss a lot of jokes the 1st time.
