Now mainstream television is reviving the old hits of the past (‘Grand Prix’, ‘Yellow Humor’, ‘Password’…), one of the biggest ‘hits’ of the era. Telecinco’Martian diaries’, I had a lot of tricks to pull off. I’ll do it with a one day special Tuesday, December 12 (22:50), but this will serve fans of the extreme ‘show’ presented by Xavier Sarda Relive with nostalgia an area that marked the birth of the Spanish small screen from 1997 to 2005.
“This meeting get some justice“I think this program needs a good memory,” he tells El Periódico de Catalunya of the Prensa Ibérica group: Carlos LatreThe creator of the special and the one who will guide this journey into the past along with Sardà himself.
The comedian, known for the numerous parodies he developed on ‘Martian Chronicles’, is aware of how complicated it would be to produce a similar daily program today. And not just because Sarda, 65, has repeatedly repeated that he cannot keep up with the pace. “Now everyone is very sensitive and we are very well intentioned. You have to say what you have to say so that no one can pollute you on the channels. If ‘Mars Chronicles’ were on air today, they wouldn’t be crying. will explode“, emphasizes Latre.
heated debates
Because the program is always argument, for their heated debates and obscene meetings and ‘trash TV’, for launching the most diverse characters that would rise to fame. “I think it was ‘Heidi’ compared to what we did later on TV, but we were the first to revolutionize the small screen and really deal with issues that weren’t seen in a good way. We dealt with the heart in a very powerful way. We were talking about ‘Big Brother,’ ‘OT,’ we A very politically disturbing program and that depends on which editorial lines I don’t like,” Latre defends himself.
“I did not love The power that Xavier has and that every night he could say something that would cross social boundaries, like ‘No to war’. “We also talked about all governments,” said the comedian, emphasizing that this humor is always present in such a program.

“The vast majority of people who participated in the program have great memories of it because we learned so much. Ultimately, what remains over time is love,” says Latre, who is currently working with another star TV show. ‘Anthill’whom he describes as “the son of Chronicles”, but less Rowdy due to the time it was broadcast”.
A tribute to those who are no longer here
There will also be a tribute to figures that are currently missing. Mr. Galindo, Rosa Maria Sardà, Carmen Hornillos and executive producer and creator of the format, Joan Ramon Mainat among others.
So is there any chance of the ‘Martian Chronicles’ reunion continuing? Latre does not close the door completely. “It’s now agreed that this special will happen, but you never know. Imagine it works great and it’s the start of something different,” he concludes.
