Development

The series was announced by TelevisaUnivision on 13 January 2022.[16][17] Filming began in late January 2022.[18] The first teaser of the series was shown on 17 February 2022.[19] On 16 March 2022, Juan Osorio announced that the series was renewed for a second season that will consist of 20 episodes.[20]

Controversy

On 11 March 2022, three days before the series scheduled premiere date, it was announced that a federal judge had ordered for the series to be postponed after the family of Vicente Fernandez alleged that Televisa incurred in violations of non-contractual relationships; trademark rights; improper use of an artistic name reserved before the National Copyright Institute (Indautor); unfair competition, among other reasons.[21][22][23] The following day, TelevisaUnivision alleged that the company had not received any judicial notice prohibiting the series from airing and would continue with airing the series.[24][25] The series went on to premiere as scheduled.[26]
