Son de Fierro had 251 episodes. Son de Fierro follows the life of the Fierro family, of their members and their friends. The character played by Laport was called "Martín Fierro", but neither the program or the character were an adaption or a free reference to the famed poem Martín Fierro by José Hernández.
During this show, Felipe Colombo, Camila Bordonaba and Vanesa Gonzáles formed the band, but it didn't "survive" the show. Bordonaba and Colombo had musical contract with Cris Morena (the band Erreway).

Famous quotes containing the word son:
“I cannot beat off
Invincible modes of the sea, hearing:
Be a man my son by God.
He turned again
To the purring jet yellowing the murder story,
Deaf to the pathos circling in the air.”
—Allen Tate (1899–1979)
