Idolos de Juventud is a Spanish-language telenovela produced by the United States-based television network Telemundo. This limited-run series about a fictional pop-music reality show in Mexico debuts during the summer of 2008, airing weekdays from 7-8 p.m. It will air in the US with only a single 30-second commercial per episode—and instead feature pervasive product placement woven into each episode.
Telemundo is expected to air 40 episodes of this short-form novela on weeknights over about eight weeks. As with most of its other soap operas, the network will broadcast English subtitles as closed captions on CC3. Aurelio Valcárcel Carrol is executive producer and the cast includes Karla Díaz-Leal, Marcela Garcia, Patricia Sirvent, Eduardo Cuervo and Jencarlos Canela. The show is shot at Telemundo Studios, Miami.
