That's weird. I used to learn Spanish the same way, primarily watching telenovelas on Telemundo. Almost every telenovela produced as of 2013 should include English subtitles.
You can try other soaps like "La reina del sur", "Dama y obrero", "Pasión Prohibida"... they should have English subtitles.
Although I understand why you want to learn with English subtitles, I wouldn't recommend it. Stick with Spanish subtitles. I know it's hard at the beginning and frustrating but you learn Spanish much quicker that way.
When I started to watch Spanish telenovelas, I used to pause every dialog to understand at least what the speaker wants to say. It is certainly no fun but you'll eventually get past it.
Have fun.
