Trivia

'What's Love Got to Do with It' was intended to have run before 'Las Brisas', but was postponed to allow 'Las Brisas' to run during May sweeps. 'What's Love Got to Do with It' was then run at the end of the season - confusingly enough, after the season finale! This explains why the events at the cliffhanger ending of 'Las Brisas' are completely ignored in the next show, then picked up again in 'Reunion'.
