About Niños Ricos, Pobres Padres
Niños Ricos, Pobres Padres is a Colombian telenovela produced by the United States-based television network Telemundo. It debuted on July 7, 2009 at 9:30 pm Eastern Time, taking over the second half of El Rostro de Analía until Friday, July 17, when it completely replaced it in the 9–10 pm slot. The story revolves around Alejandra Paz, a beautiful 17-year-old girl and her mother, Lucía, an illegal US immigrant who is deported from Miami back to Bogotá, Colombia; desperate and broke, they are forced to move in with Lucía's hostile sister, Verónica. On the first day, Alejandra is invited to Isabela's party, Esteban's girlfriend. While putting a drug on Alejandra's drink. Alejandra is suddenly raped by Matías, Esteban's friend. Suddenly Alejandra and her mother are submerged into a world of intrigue and betrayal where money is no object and people are not who they seem to be. High school drama soon ensues as Esteban and David fight to win Alejandra's heart. While Esteban and Alejandra date, they are then separated by lies and betrayal made by Mónica and Isabela. Soon Isabela gets pregnant by Gabriel, Rocio and Martha's brother. Later, Isabela lies to Esteban that she is pregnant by him in order to separate him by Alejandra. Suddenly, David learns that he has the opportunity to be with Alejandra, while Alejandra can't forget Esteban and still loves him.
Directed by Darren Star, Niños Ricos, Pobres Padres leans on a strong ensemble — Carmen Villalobos, Fabiola Campomanes, Sebastián Caicedo — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The series landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2009.
