Menudo: Forever Young

The refreshing thing about this series is that the members of Menudo who were interviewed appreciated the wild ride they went on, even if looking back they realize that Díaz wouldn’t be able to operate the band the same way today.

What subsequently emerges — especially in the series’ second half — is a damning portrait of greed run amok at the expense of children’s welfare. What’s most fascinating about it, though, is how none of these revelations are particularly new. The truth, as they say, is out there. What’s changed, or at least what its directors and participants appear to hope has shifted in recent years, is that the group’s fans might actually be willing to hear it.
