‘Hoy Día’, Telemundo’s morning show, would face new changes after the World Cup in Qatar, it would even have another name.
Did the network listen to the request of its public? Did they react to the drop in rating? Are they looking for a healthy competition to recover the love of the people of the morning?
Just like what happened to its most direct competitor, ‘Despierta América’, when the same directors tried to give it a more news-oriented approach than entertainment, and the public let it know that they didn’t like it, the morning followers of Telemundo would have acted in the same way.
It is no secret that the ratings would not have favored them in this new news era, to the point that, despite the fact that the premise was less entertainment, more information of another type, a clear example of the change that would come is to see Nacho Lozano interviewing Chayanne in a way that is not only light, but also humorous, far from his sharp news editorials, instead of having that task other talents such as Quique Usales or Chiquibaby, entertainment journalists ment.
WHAT WOULD THESE CHANGES LOOK LIKE?
Although we still cannot confirm it officially, we can tell you unofficially that Telemundo’s mornings would no longer be under the news department, and would go to entertainment.
That is, it would no longer be under Patsy Loris, Senior Vice President of Specials and News Programs, but would be under the supervision of Ronald Day, President of Entertainment and Content Strategies, who would give it the task of the new format and the new direction towards entertainment, to the network’s new acquisition, Sandra Smester, Executive Vice President of Programming and Content Development, who has just left TV Azteca in the midst of a controversy that has not yet been clarified, and is also a duo that has already worked together on Univision.
“’Hoy Día’ comes at an opportune time to fill a void for Latinos seeking news and useful information to start and plan your day”, promised Loris before eating To start the change, after the cancellation of ‘A New Day’, however, that void would still not be filled and the chain would have the intention of looking for a new change of direction to do so.
WILL IT TRY TO LOOK LIKE ‘WAKE UP AMERICA’ LEADERS OF MORNING?
Yes and no… We repeat, although there is no official confirmation, unofficially we were able to know that although they would seek to have their ‘own little house’, the premise would be a lot of fun, games, entertainment and some news . It would be a format closer to ‘Venga La Alegría’ on TV Azteca or ‘Hoy’ on Televisa.
WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO THE TALENT WE SEE DAILY?
We all want to know if we will continue to see Adamari López, Chiquibaby, Nacho Lozano, Nicole Suárez, Rebeka Smyth, Quique Usales, Alfredo Oropeza and Carlos Robles… Although there is no official version of it either, we were able to find out unofficially that there would be drastic changes in the production, and they would begin with the change of the head that currently directs ‘Hoy Día’; just as some talents would be relocated to other shows within Telemundo’s programming.
In the same way, new talents would arrive at Telemundo’s morning and others who are currently leading other shows, who they could happen in the morning.
WHEN WOULD THESE CHANGES BE MADE?
They would be thought for after the World Cup Qatar, between December and January. Regardless of when they make it official, without a doubt, they would be listening to the request of the public and that is always a triumph for television, the industry. Healthy competition is profit for those who wake up looking for a partner, a family, to start the day.
WHAT TELEMUNDO TOLD US:
We communicated with Telemundo to have a reaction or the official version to the changes that we told you there would be, and although they did not confirm it, they did not deny it either, they simply told us: “Thank you very much for your email. We do not have a comment on this“.
