7.35 million viewers watched episode 365, in which Alexandra Neldel, Mathis Künzler and Manuel Cortez made their final appearances on the show, which marked an all-time-record for a German daily soap opera/telenovela (1 September 2006).
During the shooting, Alexandra Neldel had to wear a fat suit, glasses and a brace to make her character "ugly".
Broadcasting network SAT 1 decided to produce 200 episodes. After the show reached the best ratings in its time slot, it was prolonged for 6 months (2005).
