I have been obsessed with television program pages and program listings since I was a child. In both cases, there was no greater disappointment than finding the initials S/P without programming at the relevant theater or cinema. January is coming to an end and La 1 has gotten through the month very quietly, without a stable schedule to nourish us viewers. They gave us food, they throw food to the animals in the zoo at the time they agreed with the keepers, but there is nothing that can be called programming.
Cinema served as the perfect filler to bridge any gaps. Sometimes, even the day before, the names of the films to be shown were given before they were sent to the media. They all have a considerable aura of improvisation. And here we find ourselves, in February, trying to make all the revenue in the world from Benidorm Fest without having to invest in little more than a single format (we see the results given by Bake off: proverbial in the bake, caution has prevailed: premieres, fairs).
The formula for saving money couldn’t be simpler: Combine two quarters into one. So with several formats ready for broadcast, they have to fill the grid from January until the Paris Olympic Games. They faithfully managed to get through the first five weeks of the calendar with all the unreleased material, as cinema goes, cinema comes.
Even if you are using a program from 2023, I don’t know what you are talking about, as can be seen from the conversations made by Mercedes Milá’s guests, it is recorded and belongs to last year, but it allows us to delay the arrival. As the calendar continues to move forward, many premieres have taken place.
