La Sexta premiered this weekend Better SaturdayFour hours of live evening entertainment and the feeling we were left with was what the program had to offer. Boris Izaguirre And Adela González It lacked strong content and impact. A shame.
This is the fate of time. Banality, emptiness, and treating any topic in the most superficial way possible prevail. I know I can’t ask for even remotely thoughtful discussions or meetings at this point. But throwing aside so many technical tools (live connections, relatively wide deployment of editors and collaborators) to accomplish such a short-range task seems like a real waste.
There is no subject that cannot be discussed or discussed, except that current events do not stop and live broadcast plays to its advantage with the constant “it’s happening, you’re watching” pressure. I can extract juice from it. You can apply a sense of humor, criticism, anecdotes, wisdom, originality, any nuance. It’s anything but turning pages of the script, one after the other, with such reluctance and routine that it invites the audience to step out of every commercial break. When it didn’t happen before. For whatever reason, the Aruser@s formula, which was effective in the morning, was not working in the afternoon.
The Rock wasn’t doing well either and they renewed it for a third year. We suspect Better Saturday won’t work. Producing live television with complete freedom is a mortal sin. You just need to add desire, enthusiasm and eat the set for four hours. Sometimes what is perceived is a sense of routine and little substance.
