Azteca takes ‘Housewives’ - Network picks up Hispanic version of show

TV Azteca, Mexico’s No. 2 web, has picked up the U.S. Hispanic version of “Desperate Housewives,” produced by Disney Latin America for leading U.S. Spanish-language net Univision.

Azteca will air “Amas de Casas Desesperadas” on Canal 13, its main channel normally reserved for Mexican programming, starting June 9. In contrast to Univision’s weekly programming plan, Azteca will be stripping the skein daily Monday-Friday — like a telenovela — in its peak primetime slot.”*
