It is also possible to offer them NBCUniversal´s channels in English. I think we are not the only ones who are bringing this type of solution, but that we are the only ones who can, since we have great channels in Spanish and in English, we can offer advertisers a more integrated proposal that satisfies their needs”, explains Silberwasser.He highlighted that among the upcoming dramas are Bajo el Mismo Cielo, which presents characters from US Hispanic and is based on the script of A Better Life. “It is about a Mexican immigrant who arrives to Los Angeles and tries to give his children a better life.
