For decades, some of Spanish-language television's biggest laughs came from pratfalls, insults about people's bodies and performers determined to squeeze a joke out of every line. Mario Bezares and Consuelo Duval believe that version of comedy has run its course.
The two Mexican entertainers are part of Hotel Todo Incluido, ViX's new fantasy comedy about a deteriorating resort where the wishes of its guests mysteriously come true. Led by José Eduardo Derbez and Sofía Castro, the show's magical premise is a more contemporary approach to humor, one the actors say reflects how much Latino comedy has changed.
