El Señor de los Cielos Season 7 Leads Telemundo’s 2019-20 Lineup

NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises has unveiled its lineup of multiplatform programming featuring more than 900 hours of original content for the 2019-20 season.

Telemundo’s slate of original productions includes the seventh season of El Señor de los Cielos, the new limited series No Te Puedes Esconder, as well as the return of El Final del Paraíso, La Doña, Enemigo Intimo and Falsa Identidad. Reality shows such as La Voz (The Voice), Exatlon and the debut of the Spanish-language version of the NBC game show The Wall are also in the network’s 2019-20 season lineup.

Recently, Telemundo successfully launched La Reina del Sur 2, a sequel to the 2011 series. This summer, it will be the first Spanish-language network to bring the first Democratic presidential primary debate to U.S. Hispanic audiences and also will launch its first-ever English-language newscast on YouTube. Further, the network will roll out “Summer of Soccer,” its coverage plan for the FIFA Women’s World Cup France 2019 and Copa America from Brazil.

Cesar Conde, chairman of NBCUniversal Telemundo Enterprises and NBCUniversal International Group, said: “Hispanics are no longer just a demographic story. They are trendsetters driving social, cultural, digital and, most importantly, economic impact. Almost 60 million strong, Latinos are without question a business imperative for growth regardless of industry or category. Our audience asked us for more and Telemundo listened by redefining Hispanic media and leading the way, setting a new standard of excellence with the biggest and best scripted, reality, sports and news content in the industry. Only NBCUniversal and Telemundo can connect with this growing influential audience, across genres, across platforms and across languages.”

Laura Molen, president of advertising sales and partnerships at NBCUniversal, added: “Marketers cannot underestimate the power of the Hispanic audience, and no other media company can offer the expertise, authenticity and capabilities that Telemundo and NBCUniversal provide. Alongside our unparalleled content, we are committed to setting new standards for delivering engagement, scale and impact for our partners by providing the best content, data and distribution all under one roof. As advertisers look ahead this upfront season, Telemundo is a critical part of any media plan.”
