'''Sin Senos No Hay Paraíso''' (literally, ''Without Breasts There Is No Paradise'') is a Spanish-language [[telenovela]] produced by the [[U.S.|United States]]-based [[television]] network [[Telemundo]].[http://nbcumv.com/telemundo/release_detail.nbc/entertainment-20070614000000-nbcuniversalscores.html?rss=1] It is adapted from ''[[Sin Tetas No Hay Paraiso]]'', a [[Sin Tetas No Hay Paraíso|2006 Caracol TV serial]], which was a hit in Colombia.

''Paraíso'''s story is based on investigative journalist [[Gustavo Bolivar]]'s eponymous debut novel. It features an attractive young [[prostitution|prostitute]] who seeks massive breast implants to attract a rich cocaine smuggler.[http://nbcumv.com/telemundo/release_detail.nbc/entertainment-20070614000000-nbcuniversalscores.html?rss=1]
The original version's finale scored a record 63 percent share of Colombian viewers.[http://www.elperiodico.com/default.asp?idpublicacio_PK=46&idioma=CAS&idnoticia_PK=427364&idseccio_PK=1029] Telemundo claims its version is "set to launch a new era in television"[http://nbcumv.com/telemundo/release_detail.nbc/telemundo-20080512000000-telemundoannounces.html]

''Sin Senos No Hay Paraíso'' replaces ''[[Pecados Ajenos]]'' in [[Telemundo]]'s 10 p.m. (ET/PT) time slot on [[June 16]], [[2008]].[http://nbcumv.com/telemundo/release_detail.nbc/telemundo-20080512000000-telemundoannounces.html] Telemundo began shooting the series in three locations, Miami, Bogota and its new studio in Mexico on [[April 15]], [[2008]].
==Story==
''Paraíso'' tells the story of 17-year-old Catalina, a gorgeous young girl who descends into a decadent world of easy money as a teen prostitute.[http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14906271/] She comes from a poor single-parent family and her brother works as a hired killer for drug traffickers. The girl dreams of a life of luxury, but she is not bosomy enough to attract a wealthy pusher whom she can seduce into making her a pampered paramour.[http://ipsnews.net/news.asp?idnews=34864]

Sick of poverty, Catalina decides that plastic surgery will help her find a new life. During her pursuit, she is raped, gets an abortion and dives into the sex trade.[http://www.nydailynews.com/latino/2007/07/11/2007-07-11_nbcs_boob_job.html] She sells her body to raise money for [[breast augmentation]].[http://tvweek.com/news/2007/06/nbcs_nuts_no_more.php] After five operations, she loses the will to live and considers suicide.[http://ipsnews.net/news.asp?idnews=34864]

===Origins===
[[Image:Sintetaslogo013967.jpg|thumb|right|100px|Colombian title card]]
[[Gustavo Bolivar]]'s heroine is a ''prepago'', or "pre-paid girl," which means she sells her services around-the-clock for a set period, hoping to make extra money. [http://ipsnews.net/news.asp?idnews=34864] The screenwriter says ''Parasio'' highlights an unflattering part of his country: teenagers in the Colombian narco-culture getting the breast implants. He explained in July, 2007,

<blockquote>When I wrote it, I never imagined that such a local story could transcend. What happens is that it touches a theme that is indeed universal: the beauty based in vanity and its connection with money.... No book before had denounced in such bad terms the drug dealers, the ignorant mothers who confuse the love for their daughters with pimping, and the unscrupulous plastic surgeons.[http://www.nydailynews.com/latino/2007/07/11/2007-07-11_nbcs_boob_job.html]</blockquote>

Bolívar says the story is based on real-life conditions facing child prostitutes in the town of [[Pereira, Colombia|Pereira]]. There he met two girls who were desperate for silicone breasts. One told him that she got her operation in exchange for sex. Unfortunately, the doctor used a pair of used implants that led to allergic reactions and infection.[http://ipsnews.net/news.asp?idnews=34864]

==Development==
[[Image:Noparadisenewlogo033.png|thumb|right|150px|Original title card]]
[[Telemundo]] is expected to air the serial from Monday to Friday over about 26 weeks. It will be an extended version of the story, which only ran 30 episodes in Colombia.[http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117973012.html?categoryid=14&cs=1] As with most of its soap operas, the network will likely broadcast English subtitles as closed captions on CC3. After this show was unveiled at Telemundo's May 2008 upfront, Bob Sassone of ''[[AOL]] Television'' remarked that this show "gives the term 'upfront' a whole new meaning."[http://www.tvsquad.com/2008/05/12/telemundo-loves-breasts/]

Telemundo originally billed the show as "Sin Tetas No Hay Paraíso," [http://www.broadcastingcable.com/article/CA6485604.html] but softened the title, apparently because many consider the word ''tetas'' a vulgar equivalent of the English word "tits."[http://ipsnews.net/news.asp?idnews=34864] The network had talked about adding a major co-production partner to the telenovela.[http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117973012.html?categoryid=14&cs=1]
===English Version===
:''See [[Without Breasts There Is No Paradise]]''
[[NBC Universal]] commissioned both English and Spanish versions of the Colombian serial to be produced independently.[http://nbcumv.com/telemundo/release_detail.nbc/entertainment-20070614000000-nbcuniversalscores.html?rss=1] The [[Without Breasts There Is No Paradise|English version]], produced by [[Universal Media Studios]] with a different cast and script, is in development for [[NBC]][http://nbcumv.com/telemundo/release_detail.nbc/entertainment-20070614000000-nbcuniversalscores.html?rss=1] during the 2008-2009 season[http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/news/la-et-casting23oct23,0,6499991,full.story?coll=la-home-center]. It will likely deviate from the usual telenovela format, along the lines of [[Ugly Betty]].[http://www.abqtrib.com/news/2007/jun/30/telenovela-gets-new-life-english/][http://www.lsj.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20070716/THINGS0206/707160383/1001/news]

===Book Release===
[[Image:Paraiso517528.jpg|thumb|right|100px]]
[[Random House|Random House Spanish]] owns the US rights to Bolivar’s original. It plans to work with [[Telemundo]] to cross-promote the book and the series. The publisher acquired the best-seller from Colombian publisher Oveja Negra Editores earlier in 2007.[http://www.criticasmagazine.com/article/CA6441162.html]
