By the 1950s, Brazil became one of the first countries to produce novelas with high budgets and aimed both to the national and international markets. The medium has been used frequently by authorities in various countries to transmit sociocultural messages by incorporating them into storylines.
The telenovela combines drama with the 19th-century feuilleton, and naturally evolved from the Latin American radionovela, according to Blanca de Lizaur. Episodes of telenovelas usually last between 30 and 45 minutes, and rarely more than an hour, except for final episodes. This planned run results in a faster-paced, more concise style of melodrama compared to a typical soap opera. This makes them shorter than most other television series, but still much longer than a miniseries. The significant difference is their series run length telenovelas tell one self-contained story, typically within the span of a year or less whereas soap operas tend to have intertwined storylines told during indefinite, continuing runs.
Similar drama genres around the world include teleserye (Philippines), lakorn (Thailand), téléroman (Canada, specifically Quebec), and sinetron (Indonesia).Ĭommonly described using the American colloquialism Spanish soap opera, many telenovelas share some stylistic and thematic similarities to the soap opera familiar to the English-speaking world. The word combines tele (for "television") and novela (meaning "novel").
