Rebelde ("rebel" or "rebellious") is a Mexican telenovela (soap opera) produced by Televisa. It is a remake of an Argentine telenovela Rebelde Way adapted for the Mexican audience therefore leading to differences in character's backgrounds. The series ran for three seasons, the final episode airing in Mexico on 2006-06-02. Rebelde was replaced in June of 2006 with Televisa's new series Código Postal.
The series is set at the Elite Way School, a prestigious private boarding high school near Mexico City (In Rebelde Way it was a middle school). The school's faculty and the parents often have their own subplots as well. One feature of the show is the random use of English words and phrases, commonly used by fresas.
One of the series' major plot lines revolves around a group of students forming a pop band. The actors, who play the members of this band, are also in a real band, abbreviated as RBD to distinguish it from the show. RBD performs most of the music used on the show, and has been extremely successful in its own right, becoming one of the highest-grossing acts in Mexico and touring internationally.
The term "rebelde" was item number eight on the 2006 Google Zeitgeist.
In the United States on Univision the show ended on December 15, 2006.

[edit] Promotional content
The show is also notable for its extensive use of product placement. During the three seasons of the show, more than 220 companies had some spot during the show. Aside from RBD, the show has also featured guest appearances and performances from many other popular musicians, including Hilary Duff, Luny Tunes, Gorillaz, Lenny Kravitz, JD Natasha, LU, Tiziano Ferro, and La 5ª Estación. There have also been two excursions to luxury vacation resorts (Cozumel and the Banff Springs Hotel in Canada).
The cast promoted everything from shampoos (Herbal Essences) to juices (Jugos del Valle) to pads (Kotex) to cellphone operators (Telmex in Mexico, OLA in Colombia). The cast members also did individual commercials. For example, while the show had a tie-in with Herbal Essence, Dulce Maria, one of the two female leads, promoted Garnier Fructis. Plus, the cast also advertised for Lojas Americanas and the restaurant Girafas in Brazil. Almost every brand in Mexico who wanted to talk with teenagers did some tie-in with Rebelde or its members. For example, Nivea Young had a digital campaign asking "Do you want to have wonderful skin like Mia and Roberta?". Several exclusive pictures of the cast are available to cellular phone users.
All 6 RBDs also appeared on cans of Coca-Cola and promotions with brands like Kelloggs, Nestle and many others.
Their first concert in the United States was in Hollywood. They performed in the Pantages Theater down Sunset Avenue on January 21.
[edit] Promotional products
To capitalize on the huge success of Rebelde the producers are now marketing a consortium of items relating to the show.
The soap opera and the band had over 70 licensing deals in Mexico and 60 in Brazil. In Mexico they had underwear, clothing line, jewelery, calendars, uniform, calendar shoe-line, perfume, magazine, candies, caps, board game, backpack, school stuff, calendars, blankets, dolls, among other things. In Brazil, shoes, magazines, books, digital cameras, MP3 players, board games, toys, apparel, dolls, blankets, cosmetics, shampoo, bubble gum, school stuff, backpacks and many other products were available.
