| Aspect | Season 1 (2008) | Season 2 (2009) | |--------|------------------|------------------| | | Raw, documentary-style | Cinematic, psychological | | Actresses | Emerging talents | Established stars (Bárbara Mori, Ludwika Paleta) | | Violence | Implied, off-screen | More graphic, on-screen | | Social Message | Subtle | Explicit and angry | | Best Episode | "Cándida, Esperanzada" | "Tita, ¿Estás Ahí?" |

Itatí Cantoral, famous for playing the villain Soraya Montenegro in María la del Barrio , here plays a different kind of monster: classist, racist, and cold.

premiered on Televisa (now Canal Las Estrellas) in 2009. Following the massive success of Season 1 (2008), the second season doubled down on social realism.
