Vadhir and José Eduardo Derbez are set to take the entertainment world by storm with their new docuseries "Par de Ideotas," which premiered on March 7, 2025, on both Prime Video and ViX. The series features the two brothers as they tackle the challenge of launching a pop-up bar, with the unique twist of including their mothers, Silvana Prince and Victoria Ruffo, who were historically estranged after their divorces from the iconic comedian Eugenio Derbez. This reunion marks a significant moment not just for the family, but for fans eagerly anticipating the humor, drama, and genuine family dynamics on display.
Vadhir and José Eduardo, both known for their comedic talents, have expressed their excitement about the project, which promises to blend laughter with the challenges of entrepreneurship. "The two moms cooperated very well, it was an incredible experience and they had a great time," noted José Eduardo in an exclusive interview with Us Weekly en Español. Both brothers are determined to prove themselves to their father by successfully building their own venture, shifting from the shadows of their famous parent.
One of the highlights of "Par de Ideotas" is the brothers’ transformation as they attempt to become drag queens, fully embracing the challenges of heels and makeup. Vadhir hilariously shared, "My respects to the drag queens. It's impressive work: the heels, the makeup, the lashes... all of it is tremendously physically demanding." José Eduardo added, "Oh man, those heels were the worst. It's exhausting, and the heat is unbearable." Their efforts to adapt and contribute to the show not only entertain but also showcase their willingness to step outside their comfort zones.
Eugenio Derbez’s reaction to the project also plays a pivotal role, adding another layer to the docuseries. His genuine and unscripted response to learning about his sons’ plans is captured, delivering comic and heartfelt moments. Vadhir explained, “We wanted it to be as organic as possible because we knew his real reaction would be much funnier.” The show promises to offer viewers these authentic moments where the family dynamic is on full display.
The brothers did not stop at just the family reunion; they also invited several celebrities to join them throughout the series. Notable guests making appearances include Laura León, Facundo, Lucero Mijares, Eduardo Videgaray, and the band La Adictiva. The participation of such figures aims to add excitement to their attempts at launching themed evening events at the pop-up bar.
Subsequently, the series documents the brothers hosting themed parties including '80s nights and fabulous celebrations inspired by Moulin Rouge, all the way to embracing the drag queen theme. This aspect of their venture guarantees limitless entertainment and unpredictable scenarios, offering fans what they crave from the Derbez family: high-energy fun and unique storytelling.
To clarify, "Par de Ideotas" does not signal the end of the family's previous projects like "De viaje con los Derbez." José Eduardo assured viewers, saying, "No, it's very much separate from the Derbez franchise. This is about us and our individual paths. Follow us on our social media, and you’ll see everything coming up." This docuseries marks the beginning of their next chapter, setting the stage for future endeavors.
From the hilarious idea of hosting chaotic bar nights to the affectionate interactions with their mothers, "Par de Ideotas" captures the essence of the Derbez family. The show not only seeks to entertain but also demonstrates the brothers' growth and independence as they strive to establish themselves as successful figures on their own.
With its premiere already creating buzz, fans of the Derbez family and newcomers alike will find something enjoyable about this thrilling and comical venture. "Par de Ideotas" positions itself as not only another successful series from the Derbez family but also as proof of their unique ability to engage audiences with relatable yet outrageous situations.
