“Save me” has already carved a place in television history since last Friday, a moment that lingered as the word “luxury” faded away. In the newest episode, a wide slate of collaborators walked through Conchita’s final polygraph, the exercise designed to lay bare any lingering secrets from the show’s long run.
The conversation then turned to money and the earnings of everyone who helped sustain the program over the years. Kiko Matamoros stepped forward to set the tone, insisting that remuneration should reflect contribution: “We should charge more for those who perform most and participate most actively.” His comment stirred a mix of reactions among the cast, some interpreting it as healthy pushback, others seeing it as a trace of jealousy among colleagues who are widely respected.
One thing stood out clearly: the speaker was advocating for the entire team, including the collaborators who often work behind the scenes. He spoke with a rare candor about the prices paid for hard work, saying, “We all put in a lot, and perhaps more than we realized. We have poured our souls into this program, given our energy and time, so the audience can enjoy themselves at home, and so there’s a sense that their time and attention are valued.”
That moment drew applause from the entire troupe as well as the onlookers in the studio. Yet, even as cheers rang out, Kiko Hernández acknowledged that a substantial amount of money had indeed flowed into television pockets. The broader tone, however, did not stop there in the room from turning to the future of the project and the people who keep it alive.
Matamoros then forecast a tougher horizon for several participants: some would be left out of the current project, others would juggle multiple ventures, and a few might move toward rival programs. The sentiment was clear—change is on the way, and it will test loyalty, adaptability, and the willingness of individuals to reinvent themselves in a crowded media landscape. The outspoken collaborator made peace with the possibility that the road ahead could become rocky for certain teammates, even as he celebrated the crew’s resilience and shared purpose. He concluded with a cautious note about what lies ahead, hinting that the next phase would demand both unity and strategic choices to navigate shifting opportunities in the world of television production.
