# Pasión prohibida

Pasión Prohibida (Spanish pronunciation:) is a Spanish-language romantic drama telenovela produced by United States-based television network Telemundo Television Studios, Miami. It is a remake of the Turkish telenovela Aşk-ı Memnu by Ece Yörenç and Melek Gençoğlu. It has been adapted from Halit Ziya Uşaklıgil's novel Aşk-ı Memnu, published in 1900, but takes place in the modern-day Miami, instead of the novel's late 19th-century Istanbul setting. Jencarlos Canela and Mónica Spear starred as the protagonists. Although Telemundo announced a second season, Spear's 2014 murder brought an end to production.

## United States broadcast

Telemundo aired the serial during the 2013 season. From January 22, 2013 to June 21, 2013, Telemundo aired Pasión Prohibida weeknights at 8 pm/7c, replacing Rosa Diamante. Dama y Obrero replaced Pasión Prohibida on June 24, 2013. As with most of its other telenovelas, the network broadcast English subtitles as closed captions on CC3.
