Las Estrellas is where Mexico watches its telenovelas. Every weeknight, prime time is given over to Televisa's newest productions, from the same studio that made María la del Barrio a hit far beyond Mexico. The daytime schedule mixes the anthology series La Rosa de Guadalupe, built around stories of faith, with Como dice el dicho, set in a café where each episode grows out of a popular saying, and two comedies Latin America knows by heart: El Chavo del 8 and El Chapulín Colorado.
Mornings belong to Hoy, a lively variety show hosted by a team that includes Galilea Montijo, Andrea Legarreta and Raúl Araiza, while Cuéntamelo Ya! covers celebrity news. Sundays bring the family sitcom Una familia de diez and its spin-off ¿Tú crees?, and weekends also leave room for movies, reality shows, concerts, award shows and Mexican soccer.
Behind it all is Televisa's flagship network, widely regarded as the most-watched channel in Mexico. It began as XEW-TV on March 21, 1951, spent decades known as Canal 2 and has carried the Las Estrellas name since 2016. Everything airs in Spanish, so the channel is also an easy way to pick up the language.
