Two decades after the premiere, Serranos, Telecinco’s iconic series, is back in the spotlight as April 22 marks the 20th anniversary of its first episode. The news has been weaving through the cast’s conversations for months, with Fran Perea hinting at plans to do something memorable for the milestone in November. Antonio Resines gave a concrete nod during a visit to La Resistencia, where he confirmed that a reunion featuring multiple members of the original cast is being organized. The actor suggested the reunion would likely air on free television, sparking anticipation about a possible broadcast strategy and the format of this long awaited gathering.
From the early days of the show, the life-giving energy around the Resines-led cast was undeniable. For eight seasons, the late-night Movistar Plus program became a hub for updates and behind-the-scenes insights, often breaking news in a casual, informal tone. On a recent Monday, March 13, the program featured a discussion about bringing together a selection of former Serrano team members. The idea had already circulated among fans and insiders, yet the latest update from Ricardo Castella added a fresh layer of specificity to the plan, detailing who might participate and what the arrangements could look like. The group’s potential reunion started to take shape in the public imagination, with producers and network executives weighing how best to celebrate the beloved series while respecting the spirit of the original eight-season run.
During the conversation, the host pressed for a location and format, asking where the reunion would occur and whether it would echo the show’s familiar setting or take a new route. Resines indicated that those specifics had not been finalized yet, but he affirmed that a broadcast on free television remained the most plausible option. The discussion also touched on whether the reunion might extend beyond a single episode, perhaps morphing into a multi-part special that could recapture the series’ signature blend of humor, family dynamics, and heartfelt moments. The actor emphasized discretion at this stage, suggesting that further details would be shared only when plans solidified and approved by all parties involved, including the network and the cast members themselves.
Meanwhile, two of the series’ most memorable performers have already crossed paths again on screen. Alexandra Jimenez and Alejo Sauras, who portrayed the fictional couple Afrika and Raúl across a prolific run of 147 episodes, reunited in a different project, bringing with them the chemistry and familiarity that fans remember. Paz Padilla also dropped by the scene to reminisce about the Serrano years, recounting anecdotes from the shooting days and reflecting on how those moments shaped her career. The return of these faces has sparked renewed interest in the show, inviting a new generation of viewers to discover the warmth and humor that defined Serranos while giving longtime fans a comforting sense of continuity. The conversations around the reunion continue to evolve, with each public appearance and interview feeding curiosity about how the series might honor its legacy while inviting fresh enthusiasm from audiences across Canada and the United States who grew up watching or discovering Serranos in later years.
