Production
[edit]This show was originally planned for the 2008–2009 season.[2] The first pilot, titled "Lola Calamidades", was filmed in 2008 with Christian Meier, Danna García, Kristina Lilley and Andrea López. Meier eventually left Telemundo to pursue other things. From the pilot's cast only García, María Helena Doering, and Tiberio Cruz appear in the series. When the filming began on August 17, 2009 Telemundo had not yet cast the male lead. Martin Karpan was suggested, but due to the lack of chemistry between two leads his participation was reconsidered. At the end was the Argentinian actor Segundo Cernadas ("Muñeca Brava" leading man) got the role.
Also, Elizabeth Gutiérrez was to play at first Priscila, but refused the role in favour of other production. The role was eventually taken by Adriana Campos.
