Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Mirtha Legrand was already Argentina's most beloved TV host; this marked her first fictional role since 1966. The production built her character's mansion from scratch — it still stands as a tourist attraction.
The series sparked national debates about class representation in Argentine media. Critics called it 'escapism for the economic crisis generation,' while fans celebrated seeing working-class characters written with actual interior lives.
