La Revuelta

It was a tall order for David Broncano to topple El Hormiguero but - somehow - he's done it. And it's easy to see why. La Revuelta loves to take risks. Even better - TVE has let them take as many risks as they need.

This show took advantage of the fact that a lot of viewers of El Hormiguero hate it, but watch it to see just how badly Pablo Motos does. La Revuelta appealed to those who did so by continuously bashing the other side, and it's won. Broncano might not be the best interviewer, and this show might not be the most family-friendly. But La Revuelta has done what Crónicas Marcianas did way back in 1997 - it provided a different style of humour for late-night programmes: in 1997 it was Crónicas' laid-back style and curious collaborators; in 2024 it is Broncano's offbeat and dry style which truly makes the format. If you watch EH after La Revuelta, El Hormiguero seems staid and much duller than this one.
