Trivia

  • The theme music for the show was "Tu locura," by Gustavo Cerati. Cerati had composed an original piece simply named "Locura." Nevertheless, the artist chose to change songs at last moment. "Locura" was reworked, culminating in "Uno entre 1000" included in Cerati's Ahí vamos (2006).
  • For the video of "Crimen", the first single for Ahí vamos, Cerati invited Julieta Díaz to play a dual role as secretary and femme fatale.
