NBC Universo to Premiere Mexican Series EL SEXO DEBIL, 7/6

NBC UNIVERSO, the modern sports and entertainment cable channel for Latinos, today announced the premiere of El Sexo Débil, the provocative Mexican series that will air for the first time on a cable network in the U.S., beginning Monday, July 6, at 7 p.m. ET/PT.

A hit in Mexico, which generated a passionate social dialogue across Latin America, the series centers around the Camacho family, led by Agustin Camacho (Arturo Rios) and his four sons Alvaro (Khotán Fernández), Julián (Mauricio Ochmann), Dante (Raúl Méndez) and Bruno (Pablo Cruz) - all of them doctors, who seem to have everything going for them. In the series premiere, they quickly find out that professional prestige, sexual conquests, charisma and economic status are not enough to keep the women in their lives from walking out on them - on the same fateful evening.

As the men face their worst fears, in comes Helena (Itati Cantoral), a decisive and strong woman, who right after leaving her own fiancé at the altar, is ready to take the Camachos' lives by storm. Over time, the series illustrates how both sexes evolve and adapt to their new realities, turning traditional stereotypes on their head.

"El Sexo Débil is a fun, daring, eye-opening, and very real series that exposes the 'machismo' in human beings... both men and women," said Mauricio Ochmann. "It is a series that brings reality and honesty, so people will relate to both the Camacho brothers, as well as with the strong female characters."

Bilai Joa Silar, Senior Vice President, Programming & Production, NBC UNIVERSO, said, "El Sexo Débil defies typical dramatic portrayals of Latino characters in Spanish television. It's a provocative series that challenges the traditional roles played by Latinos, and puts them in a modern light." She added, "This fresh, edgy programming is representative of the quality entertainment NBC UNIVERSO is committed to offering our Hispanic viewers."

El Sexo Débil will air Mondays through Thursdays on NBC UNIVERSO from 7-8 p.m. ET/PT. The series consists of 120 episodes.
