Neither the romantic comedy starring Gabriel Soto, Soltero con hijas, nor the recently released fiction about doctors headed by Livia Brito and Daniel Arenas, the most watched soap opera in Mexico today is, against all odds, the repetition of a successful stellar melodrama that premiered 7 years ago and is now rebroadcasting in the afternoon.
We are talking about true love, the original soap opera by the Argentine writer Marcela Citterio, which was directed by Erika Buenfil, Eduardo Yáñe z, Eiza González, Sebastián Rulli and Marjorie de Sousa in 2012.
Although it is not the first time that it beats current stellar fictions on Televisa, on Tuesday the melodrama produced by Nicandro Díaz again topped the ranking of the most watched programs, a piece of news that Erika could not stop sharing through her social networks.
“Happy and dawn with the great news that true love is in first place of rating. Thank you, thank you, thank you for your love,”she wrote on Twitter.
The triumph of True Loves in 2019 is striking since, in addition to being a repeat, this time it is not broadcasting during prime time.
Erika's reboot
The soap opera, in the words of the Mexican actress, meant the restart of Erika's career, who had not had the opportunity to headline a melodrama for many years.
People started to see me differently. More woman. Best actress”, confessed the 55-year-old interpreter in 2017 in an interview with People en Español.

The keys to your success
Although it is difficult, even for those who participated in the soap opera, to determine why the soap opera was so successful in its day and continues to be so today, Buenfil pointed to his 'great love story' two years ago as one of the main ingredients of your success.
“It had all the elements: great cast, an excellent script, an impeccable production. You never know why such success, but I will always thank the public for making it their favorite,”he said then.
True Loves airs in Mexico at 4:30 pm on Las Estrellas.
