Broadcast History
La madrastra premiered on Televisa's El Canal de las Estrellas (XEW-TV) on 7 February 2005 at 9:00 PM, replacing Mujer de madera. The program aired weeknights at this time for one hour until 15 July 2005, when the telenovela was originally scheduled to end after a 115-episode run. However, after La madrastra became such a ratings success, Televisa ordered an additional ten episodes, bringing the episode total to 125. These final episodes were reduced from the normal hour length to thirty minutes each, ceding the latter portion of the hour to La esposa virgen. The series finale aired on 29 July 2005, with the Años después special airing the following evening. The novela was then replaced with La esposa virgen, which expanded to take up the entire hour. Televisa later re-aired the program, with a new ending, in 2007.
