TBS will today unveil a Latino, Spanish/Portuguese-language version of its popular VeryFunnyAds.com.

The new microsite is accessible from the main site and VeryFunnyAds.com/Latino. It features hosts from "CNN en Espanol" and TV spots from Latin America, Spain and Portugal.

Since VeryFunnyAds.com was spun off of TBS's "World's Funniest Commercials" in August 2006, more than 78 million videos have been viewed on the site.

Ken Schwab, senior vice president of programming for TBS and TNT, said the Spanish-language version was a logical next step.

"This is the first of a few new additions to the site that will be happening in the next year," he added.

The U.S. Hispanic online audience reached 18 million in November, up 10% from a year ago.
