The reason the show was called CHIQUITITAS is because on it's first season thy only had girls...as you said, i don't think it was planned... the show became REALLY popular here in Argentina after it's first season, so they started adding lots of new characters...With the former "little girls" growing up and blossoming into beautiful teenagers, boys became necessary... Chiquititas was exported to many Middle East countries where it became hugely successful...In places like Russia and Israel they still show old seasons. It's producer, Cris Morena, is a TV magnate. Following all 7 seasons of Chiquititas she produced Rebelde Way, along with a new and completely different Chiquititas, only resembling it's predecessor in name. Both hit shows were also exported to foreign countries. Her next hit was Floricienta, a TV show based upon the Cinderella story. I dare say this was her best show. It was a total phenomenon here in Argentina, an even bigger one in Foreign countries, and this time not only did she export the program itself, but she also sold the concept.

Keep the fantasy world

I'm a big fan of chiquititas, although i was a teenager when i first saw it.
What i like most is the innocence, the magic, and the idea of believe that good things happens in life.
The kids that life there were all different, but they grew up as a family, caring for each other, taking care of them, and watching over the others, those are values that should be encouraged on TV.
It's true that it wasn't very real, like this things doesn't happen every day to all orphans, but i prefer a TV series that shows illusion, hope, love, and fraternity over violent and "realistics" ones.
I'm sorry but i think that life itself is so full of violence, that its cruel to keep feeding our kids with that, when we can show them that life could be different only "si vos queres..." (if you want, it a title of one the songs).
