Sin senos no hay paraíso

Sin tetas no hay paraíso is a Spanish drama television series produced by Grundy Televisión for Telecinco. It is an adaptation of the original homonymous format of Caracol Televisión. The series premiered on 9 January 2008, and ended on 20 December 2009 with a total of 3 seasons and forty-three episodes. After the end of the third season Telecinco announced a fourth season, but it was not produced.[2] It stars Amaia Salamanca as the titular character.[3] The series revolves around a love story of an innocent young woman, self-conscious about her little chest, and an attractive drug trafficker.

The first two seasons starred Amaia Salamanca and Miguel Ángel Silvestre.[1] The latter only lasted two seasons in the series, since his character died at the end of the second season.[1] On 8 January 2009, Telecinco broadcast the finale of the second season in which Silvestre's character was killed.[1] The episode was watched by a total of 5.31 million viewers.[1] The next day the channel broadcast another alternative ending where the protagonists lived a happy life and away from all the problems.[1] The series was nominated for the TP de Oro Awards for Best National Series.[1]

Cast

Differences to the Colombian version

The series has contributions to adapt history to the social reality of Spain.[5]

  • The Colombian version stays closer to the book authored by Gustavo Bolívar.[5]
  • The shanty-town environment is changed to a working-class neighborhood common in Madrid.[5]
  • The motivations of the protagonist of the Spanish version is love, while in the Colombian series it was ambition.[5]
  • Catalina's friends are cold and cunning in the Colombian version whereas in the Spanish version they are candid and naïf; similarly, Catalina's mother is driven by ambition in the Colombian version whereas she comes up as selfless and pretty much an archetype of perfect mother in the Spanish version.[5]
