There is also Rusiya Al-Yaum. And if you include satellite channels, in Europe you can get Arabic channels from all over North Africa and the Middle East. Adam Bishop (talk) 13:55, 2 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Telenovelas

[edit]

What is the longest running telenovela of all time? The Mark of the Beast (talk) 22:02, 2 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Since telenovelas are normally limited-run, this is a bit hard to classify. However, a quick Google search (and check of its Wikipedia article) suggests that the Brazilian series Malhação may be a contender, since it started as a telenovela but has evolved into a more traditional soap-opera style show. --McDoobAU93 22:30, 2 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
