Rebelde (English: Rebel) is a Mexican teen drama and comedy telenovela produced by Pedro Damián for Televisa, broadcast by Canal de las Estrellas. It is a remake of the 2002 Argentine telenovela Rebelde Way, created by Cris Morena. Rebelde originally aired from 4 October 2004 to 2 June 2006, being replaced with Código Postal on 5 June. Univision aired Rebelde on weekdays afternoon at 3pm/2c starting on 21 March 2005 replacing Corazones al límite. The last episode was broadcast on 15 December 2006, with Las dos caras de Ana replacing it on 18 December.

The show stars Anahí, Dulce María, Alfonso Herrera, Christian Chávez and Christopher von Uckermann, with Maite Perroni in her debut role. The adult protagonists are Juan Ferrara, and Ninel Conde starring in a stellar performance, with Enrique Rocha and Tony Dalton portraying the antagonists. Due to its school setting, the telenovela features an ensemble cast, including Angelique Boyer, Estefanía Villarreal, Karla Cossío, Zoraida Gómez, Jack Duarte, and Eddy Vilard. The first actors Hector Gómez and Lourdes Canale also appear in the show.

Rebelde is set in the Elite Way School, a prestigious private boarding school on the outskirts of Mexico City, with a major plot line revolving around six adolescent students forming a band. Additional subplots involve the school's faculty and the students' parents. One trademark of the telenovela is the random use of English words and phrases, often used by fresa characters.

Another notable aspect of the show is that the actors playing the band members are themselves in an actual group named RBD and perform most of the music used on the telenovela, including the title theme song, "Rebelde". The group achieved international success from 2004 until their separation in 2009 and sold over 15 million records worldwide, making them one of the best-selling Latin music acts of all time.

In 2021, Netflix announced a reboot of the show, set for release the following year. The series, also titled Rebelde, was released on 5 January 2022, and is set 16 years after the end of the show.

The Elite Way School is a private boarding school with international prestige where high-class students receive a high level of education to be prepared for a great future. The school has a scholarship program for people with low financial resources who have an excellent academic level. However, few even graduate since they are persecuted by a secret society called "La Logia" ("The Lodge"), whose purpose is to conserve the purity of the privileged class. Among the students are Mía Colucci Cáceres (Anahí), Roberta Pardo Rey (Dulce María), Miguel Arango Cervera (Alfonso Herrera), Diego Bustamante (Christopher von Uckermann), Guadalupe "Lupita" Fernández (Maite Perroni) and Giovanni Méndez López (Christian Chávez). Six adolescents who, despite their differences, discover something that will unite them above all – their love for music.

Both girls and boys wear red sport jackets with matching ties, and long-sleeved white dress-shirts. Boys wear blue jeans and black dress-shoes with their jackets and shirts, while girls wear blue denim miniskirts and black knee-boots. Moreover, girls often untuck and tie up their white dress-shirts, exposing their midriff. Girls also wear regulation underwear: full-cut black briefs with matching sport-bras, as demonstrated by Mia in the series' pilot. In the last season, girls wear denim blue skirts with blue knee boots.^{[citation needed]}

In later seasons, some girls wear a different ensemble with their white dress-shirts: ochre plaid miniskirts and brown sport jackets, with black Mary Janes and white knee-socks.
