Rebelde Way (Rebel's Way) was a Martin Fierro nominated Argentine soap opera produced by Cris Morena. The series ran for two seasons, the final episode airing in Argentina on 2004.
The series is set in the Elite Way School, a prestigious private boarding middle school near Buenos Aires, attended by the adolescent children of some of Argentina's wealthiest citizens, as well as gifted "becados" (students with scholarships). The school's faculty and the parents often have their own subplots as well. One feature of the show is the regular use of English words and phrases to accurately display the lack of manners and buffoonish behavior of the upper class.
One of the series' major plot lines revolves around a group of students forming a band. The actors who play the members of this band are also a real-life band, written Erreway to distinguish it from the show. Erreway perform most of the music used on the show, and have been extremely successful in their own right, becoming one of the highest-grossing acts in Argentina and touring internationally.
