What happens

Watch Over Me is an American television series that debuted on December 6, 2006, on MyNetworkTV. Twentieth Television produced 66 episodes to air weekdays. The limited-run serial is an adaptation of Argentine series Resistiré. Dayanara Torres, a former Miss Universe, played a woman torn between her bioterrorist fiancé (Marc Menard) and her bodyguard, played by Todd Cahoon. Catherine Oxenberg and Casper Van Dien also appeared as villains. Telefe, which produced the original version, syndicates a 64-episode run of the series in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. It promoted the show as mixing a classic Latin genre with Hollywood aesthetics. From July 2009, it was aired in Slovakia on TV Markíza, taking the slot of Latin American telenovelas, but the show was not very successful. As of 2021, it is available for streaming on TubiTV.
