Which Mexican television network originally broadcast the 1987 telenovela Quinceañera?

The story behind the answer

Televisa originally broadcast the 1987 Mexican telenovela Quinceañera.

Quinceañera was a Mexican telenovela created by René Muñoz and produced by Carla Estrada. It starred Adela Noriega and Thalía, with supporting performances by Ernesto Laguardia and other prominent actors. The story focuses on teenagers and the social pressures surrounding adolescence, relationships, and family expectations.

The series is often remembered because it helped establish Thalía as a major television star and became one of the best-known Mexican youth-oriented telenovelas of its period. Its title refers to the culturally significant 15th-birthday milestone.

Televisa and TV Azteca are both major Mexican television companies, but they are separate networks. TV Azteca was founded later, in 1993, so it could not have originally broadcast this 1987 series. Univision and Telemundo are U.S.-based Spanish-language networks.
