Production and release
Produced by BocaBoca and Estudios Picasso,[6] the series was known as 'Las calles de San Fernando' prior to its release.[7] The producers initially envisioned a dramedy, but the series was eventually re-written as a police drama. The series began airing on 26 April 1999.[8] The series featured a 50 million peseta budget per episode, high for Spanish television at the time.[9] The broadcasting run ended on 2 January 2009,[10] after nearly 10 years on-air, 12 seasons and 191 episodes.[11]
Tito Valverde and Juanjo Artero reprised their characters in El Príncipe in 2016, in guest appearances.[12]
