HBO Announces New Drama for September!

...but it's en Espanol. Capadocia, set in a fictional Mexican women's prison, will run Wednesdays on HBO Latino starting Sept. 10. I don't know if I'll be seeing it before it airs—I personally no habla, but it will replay subtitled on-demand—but the network describes it thus: "Corruption runs rampant as prison rights attorney Teresa Lagos (Dolores Heredia) fights for a humane rehabilitation program, while corporate shill Federico Marquez (Juan Manuel Bernal) schemes to privatize the prison and use the women as cheap manual labor."

Mexican Oz? Or La Prisoner: Cell Block H? Imported HBO doesn't necessarily mean inferior HBO: its 2005 crime drama Epitafios was moody, scary and gripping in any language. (It ran, IIRC, not on HBO Latino but HBO Signature.) But unless I undertake a crash course in Spanish audiotapes, I'll have to wait for the On Demand version before I know.

Speaking of which: Do we have any Tuned Inlanders who watch Spanish-language TV? What are we Anglophones missing?
