ABC Gives Shonda Rhimes and Salma Hayek Series Good News
By Luke Kerr on November 02, 2010
We have finally found out when ABC plans to premiere Shonda Rimes' South American medical drama Off the Map. According to Deadline, Off the Map will premiere on Wednesday January 12 in the 10 p.m. EST time slot left empty by The Whole Truth’s cancellation.
In other ABC news, according to Variety, the network has bought another telenovela adaptation from Ugly Betty executive producer Salma Hayek. Roldan, based on the Argentinian show Los Roldan, is said to have Ugly Betty’s “comedic undertones.”
The show follows a working-class man who saves the life of a woman. She then hires him to run her company -- much to the chagrin of her family.

Usually I bemoan the lack of originality, but w/this I let is pass (for now) b/c the sexiness that is Salma Hayek gets my heart for life for bringing a much needed diversity to TV w/"Ugly Betty".
