Telemundo has presented its Upfront 2026-2027where we can find out the programming they have planned for the remainder of this year and what they will have for 2027. Among which we can highlight the return of their strongest reality shows: “La Casa de los Famosos”, “High Chef VIP” and “Exatlón”.
Here are the soap operas that we will see on Telemundo programming:
- “The Queen of the South“ – Season 4
Kate del Castillo returns as Teresa Mendoza, one of the most iconic characters on Spanish-language television. Four years after leaving her past behind, Teresa has built a new life until a tragedy forces her to return to the world she tried to escape, facing a powerful network prison and the dangers that come with it. Surrounded by corruption, shifting alliances, and unseen enemies, she embarks on a relentless quest for justice that will test her limits and redefine her legacy.
Based on the novel by Arturo Pérez-Reverte, “La Reina del Sur” redefined the genre and helped consolidate Telemundo’s Easy Sequence franchise, breaking viewership records and achieving one of the most-watched endings in television history, regardless of language. With its long-awaited return, the series remains one of Telemundo’s most powerful and enduring franchises.
- “The Lord of the Skies“ – Season 10
Season 10 marks a return to the saga’s roots, revealing Aurelio Casillas as a man powerful enough to conquer the world, but unable to control himself. After disappearing from his family’s radar, he reappears to reclaim his empire and reaffirm his legacy, pushing power and loyalty to the limit as he crosses a line that could cost him everything.
Since his debut, Rafael Amaya’s performance as Aurelio Casillas has become one of the most recognizable on Spanish-language television, leading a franchise that has captivated audiences for nearly a decade. Known for its high-impact storytelling, complex characters, and cinematic production, The Lord of the Skies remains a defining series for Telemundo, bolstered by a historic tenth season that further cements its status as a flagship property.
- “Without breasts there is paradise“
One of Telemundo’s most successful and long-lasting franchises returns with a bold and contemporary vision, led by Carmen Villalobos as Catalina Santana, alongside Majida Issa, Catherine Siachoque and Gregorio Pernía. Building on the legacy of Sin Senos, this new chapter features Catalina being dragged back into a dangerous prison world as she fights to protect her family and face new and familiar threats.
As long-buried secrets come to light, Catalina must navigate shifting alliances and growing danger, while the return of her greatest adversary, Yésica Beltrán “La Diabla,” threatens to destroy everything she has managed to rebuild, raising the stakes in one of Telemundo’s most iconic series.
