But now back in his homeland, Mexico, Suárez couldn’t help recounting with nostalgia the not-so-placid moments he spent in the neighboring country. Well, when questioned about which one he liked the most, he did not give good references from the NBC affiliate.
“What happens is that at Telemundo, more than hiring me for production issues, it was a political hiring. So they hired me to freeze. It was something very ugly that I experienced. So, for me, the experience that I acquired in Estrella TV was interesting, because I was a very important gear, that’s why it was a super school. Telemundo left me frozen for 3 years, it was horrible, it was a very bad experience, and later they explained to me that this type of company does that “
