And he added: “In Mexico you could have ‘Big Brother’ on TV Azteca and ‘La Casa de los Famosos’ on Televisa. Although they are the same concept, both reality shows are different registered trademarks, even though they are based on the same format and their difference. “It would only be that one company could only do the edition with celebrities and another with unknown people.”
