Buscando a Timbiriche, La Nueva Banda

30 participants (15 guys and 15 girls) ranging from ages 15–22 were chosen to enter the reality show and will live in "Escuela Timbiriche (Timbiriche School)".

Each week each will be scored on their singing and dancing performance by 3 tables of judges. The scores range from 1-10.

From episodes 1-9, the 6 contestants (3 guys and 3 girls) that receive the highest GPA will be placed in the "Cuadro de Honor (Spanish for Honor Roll)". And the 2 that come in first will receive a special privilege for the week. Starting from episode 10, there will be only one scoreboard (for all contestants, guys and girls), and the top two will compete to be selected as a new member of the new band.

On the other hand, from episodes 1-9 the bottom 3 males and the bottom 3 females that receive the lowest GPA will be "Reportado (Reported)" and will be up for expulsion from the show.

Starting from episode 10 until the 14th, all contestants were reported. Since the 14th, no remaining contestant was eliminated, therefore no more reported students.

From episodes 1-9, on the day of the expulsions, two of the six Reported will be saved by the Timbiriche Council. The four still Reported will depend on the public vote, the two that receive the higher number of votes will be saved and the other two will be expelled. Starting from episode 10 until the 14th, the student at the bottom of the overall scoreboard (with the lower GPA and public votes) will be automatically expelled at the end of each episode.

The show was supposed to end with three guys and three girls as the new members of the newly re-made Timbiriche, but after much consideration of the show and the original members of the band, the newly formed band consists of seven members, with the final members being four girls and three guys.

The chosen members of the band will not only receive a record deal, but will go on tour throughout Mexico and starr in a telenovela (Mexican soap opera).

These are the people that in their own ways helped create Timbiriche:

• Marco Flavio Cruz
• Martha Zavaleta
• Luis de Llano
• Amparo Rubín (who replaced Memo Méndez Guiú)

These are the original members of Timbiriche (except Paulina Rubio) and each will have a vote.

• Benny Ibarra
• Alix Bauer
• Erik Rubín
• Sasha Sokol
• Diego Schoening
• Mariana Garza

This is made up of lifelong fans of the original band. They, as a group, cast one vote for each contestant.

• This episode featured the competition for the last 3 spots in the band, with 6 contestants remaining, the three that do not make the band are automatically eliminated.
