Launch Pad July 24, 2021

Telemundo and NBC Universo are carrying Olympics coverage. There are still some smatterings of fútbol championships happening all over the place.

In telenovela news, Huerfanos de su tierra starts Monday night on UniMás:

Malverde’s still “coming soon” and they’re really going all out with the production values:

Univision has announced ¿Qué le pasa a mi familia? for August 30 at 7pm, which means it would be replacing La Rosa de Guadalupe:

La Desalmada premieres on August 23 at 10pm, replacing La Hija del Embajador:

The website is still coming together slowly. What do you want to see restored?

Welcome to the new El Cohete.

About a week ago, the old site got stuck in a loop. It was so bad, I thought about letting it die and riding off into the internet sunset, but then I remembered the things I’d always wanted to do differently, so I decided to start over.

We do have a copy of the old site in its entirety, but it’s going to need to be fished out in pieces. Mr. 5ft is taking care of that bit.

Even if we can’t restore any of the previous site, we’re still going to go on from here.

Unfortunately, right now I can’t put anything up at the old site to explain that we’ve moved, so if you’re here now I’m really glad you found us again! Thank you!

As I said before, I’ll be slowly configuring/restoring. Let me know if there’s a particular thing from the old site that you want migrated over here. I’m going to start with the TV schedule information and proximas and take it from there.

How about you? How are you doing? What are you watching? What are you excited about?

Updates

At the original site, Mr. 5ft set up an automatic redirect but things were still spotty. I set up a bare-bones web page saying we’ve moved and unexpectedly that made the redirect word without ever stopping at the old address. Anyone navigating to 5ftlatina.com will get bumped over here.

Here’s a promo for El Inframundo on UniMás. It premieres on July 21 at 8pm.

La Desalmada is coming “soon” to Univision and I am not here for it after reading that the plot involves rape in People en Español. Screw Univision. It’s not like I don’t have other options.
