Isa TKM (Isa Te Quiero Mucho) is a 2008 telenovela for teenagers produced by Nickelodeon Latin America and Sony Pictures Television. It was made in Venezuela and was the second of three Latin American Nickelodeon shows at the time of its release (the first being Skimo from Mexico and the third La maga y el camino dorado from Argentina).[1] The show was highly popular across Latin American countries, being compared to previous teen phenomenons like High School Musical.[3][4]
Plot
[edit]The show revolves around Isabella "Isa" Pasquali, a 15-year-old girl. Her dream is to gain the heart of Alejandro "Alex" Ruiz, but this proves to be a challenge, since her rival Cristina Ricalde has caught Alex's eye first.[5]
Isa's best friend is Linda Luna, who has the same dilemma that Isa has: she's in love with a boy named Reinaldo "Rey" Galán, who also has a crush on Cristina. Alex and Rey are rivals, competing against each other in a band contest.
Rebeca Ricalde, Cristina's sister, is the rival of Marina Pasquali, Isa's sister. Marina is engaged to Cristóbal Silva, whom both Rebeca and Marina have fallen in love with. Rebecca has some advantage, since Cristóbal's mother, Lucrecia Portocarreros, supports her in everything she can. Cristóbal's brother Micky is Alex's best friend and plays the bass in Alex's band. His girlfriend Vanessa is a friend of Cristina.
Alex's mother, Estela, is in love with her boss Julio Silva, but he is still in love with Jennifer Contreras, with whom he had a daughter when they were both teenagers. Isa's parents, Antonio and Carmina Pasquali, are owners of a pizza shop that is located outside the building where many of the characters live. Eventually, Isa becomes Alex's girlfriend. She discovers that she is adopted and that her biological parents are Julio and Jennifer. Initially, Isa does not accept her biological parents, but eventually ends up loving them.
At the end of the series, Cristina becomes friendly with everyone and tries to reconcile with them. Linda and Rey become a couple, and Marina begins a romance with one of Isa's producers, Raul Clavati. Isa and Alex have their first kiss in the last episode.[6]
