T10 WHATS UP! July 21 - 27, 2019 The show also boasts an im- pressive roster of recurring ac- tors, including Jencarlos Canela ("Telenovela") as rapper El Rey, Adrian Pasdar ("Heroes") as Fe- lix, Katey Sagal ("Sons of Anar- chy") as Teresa, and Freddie Stroma ("Time After Time") as Oliver. In true prime-time soap op- era style, "Grand Hotel" fea- tures plenty of romance, nota- bly a forbidden dalliance be- tween Danny and Alicia, which blossoms despite Mrs. P's warn- ings to Danny that the hotel owner's family members are off limits. Meanwhile, an affair be- tween El Rey and another char- acter causes friction in the Mendoza family, and a scandal threatens to derail an employ- ee's career. Critical response to the series has been mixed so far. In a June review, Variety's Caroline Framke called "Grand Hotel" an "easy, breezy summer watch." Early ratings reports have been modest for a summer series. The first two episodes of the show's inaugural season pulled in more than three million live viewers per night. continued from page T2 Denyse Tontz as seen in "Grand Hotel" Hot stuff: ABC's 'Grand Hotel' puts the sizzle in summer TV FEATURE
