Throughout the 1980s and ‘90s, the Puerto Rican boy band Menudo took the globe by storm, launching numerous careers and influencing international youth culture, music, and fandom. But Menudo’s decades-long success came at the cost of innocence as the group’s mastermind Edgardo Díaz regularly replaced performers to keep the band forever young. This fascinating four-part docuseries chronicles the never-before-heard story behind the rise and fall of the most iconic Puerto Rican boy band in history – including the alleged backstage culture of greed, abuse, and mayhem as told by some of Menudo’s former members.
