Without Breasts There Is No Paradise is the working title of an NBC drama series produced by Universal Media Studios which is adapted from a 2006 Colombian telenovela called Sin Tetas No Hay Paraiso.
The show, which is currently in development features the travails of a pretty young hooker, who seeks massive breast implants to attract a rich cocaine smuggler. The Colombian version's final episode scored a record 63 share of the country's viewers. The story originated with investigative journalist Gustavo Bolivar's eponymous debut novel about child prostitution.
In April 2008, Ben Silverman, co-chairman of NBC, said that "We're continuing to develop it," but he hinted that an English-language version may not be produced. "It's very likely, actually, to go on Telemundo," he said. "Our script wasn't quite ready." NBC has said little about this project since it first announced in mid-2007 and no pilot has been produced. The network announced in June that the series remains in development for the 2009-2010 season - or beyond. The Daily Mail reported in October, 2008 that the project is still in the works.
