Verliebt In Berlin
''Verliebt in Berlin'' (German pun for ''In Love in/with Berlin''; abbreviation: ViB) is a Golden Rose-winning German telenovela, starring Alexandra Neldel, along with Mathis Künzler, Tim Sander, and Laura Osswald. It premiered on 28 February 2005 on Sat.1 in most of German-speaking Europe, with its final episode broadcast on 12 October 2007. The series is an adaptation of the Colombian telenovela ''Yo soy Betty, la fea'', written by Fernando Gaitán and produced by RCN TV.

Lisa and Bruno's status as two "fish out of water" drove much of the story plot. ''ViB'' was adapted into a Berlin setting by creators Michael Esser, Peter Schlessel ...
