Sres. Papis (Argentine TV series)

'Sres. Papis' is an Argentine telenovela produced and broadcast by the Telefe network. It premiered on January 6, 2014 and ended on November 27 of the same year. It aired Monday through Friday, except Wednesdays, at 11:30 p.m. The series was written by Cecilia Guerty and Pablo Junovich, and directed by Gustavo Luppi, Omar Aiello and Pablo Vásquez. It starred Luciano Castro, Joaquín Furriel, Luciano Cáceres and Peto Menahem.

Plot
The story tells the experiences of four modern parents Favio Carbonetti (Luciano Castro), Ignacio Moreno (Joaquín Furriel), Franco Bertossi (Luciano Cáceres) and Mauro de Leone (Peto Menahem) and attractions that make friends by sharing daily talks at the door of your children's kindergarten. In addition to accompanying each other in conflicts, vicissitudes, juggling, surprises and abysses that bring you into paternity, you will be involved in the personal stories of each of them. By sharing the door of the Kindergarten daily, being identified in the problems they face as fathers and feeling even in a world mostly populated by mothers, these four men are joining and consolidating a powerful and endearing friendship.

Premise
The main topic of the telenovela is male paternity, as the main characters have different back stories but all raise children with little or no female help. This topic was addressed very few times before in Argentine telenovelas, such as in the old telenovelas Papá corazón and Grande, pa!. Somos familia (2014) and Solamente Vos (2013) are other Argentine telenovelas that also explored male paternity. Actor Luciano Cáceres described the main characters as antiheroes, with several emotional weaknesses.

Production
Actress Julieta Díaz rejected a proposal to work in the telenovela, as she had plans to work in films during 2014. She declined to work in other Argentine fictions, such as Guapas and Viudas e hijos del Rock and Roll, for a similar reason. The production staff proposed that she could appear as a guest star for 25 episodes. She accepted this proposal, and her role in the story will be that of a cumbia singer, with cumbia songs composed especially for the program.

Production will move to neighbouring Brazil to film scenes for the program during the 2014 FIFA World Cup. It is not confirmed if Cáceres will take part in the project, as he also performs in theater plays.

Reception
The program premiered on January 6, 2014. It received 13.9 rating points, prevailing over the telenovelas aired by El Trece.
