Contrary to what happened in the United States, the fiction, which is broadcast weekly, swept over 2 million viewers and 17.2% of Compartir on average, becoming the best premiere of a foreign series on this network, Telecinco, since July 2018.

Before, it had only happened with the first season of “La Reina del Sur in 2011” by the chain in Spain, Antena 3, with the Mexican actress Kate del Castillo as the protagonist.

And speaking of Spain, another novel that is currently very successful is “Café con aroma de mujer”, starring William Levy and Laura Londoño, which is one of the most viewed on Netflix.
