What a pity that the most watched program on television last year (and so far this year)
ends up moving as if it were about to be lifted
.
On Argentine TV, when a cycle doesn't work, it resorts to all kinds of resources and fades away before its anticipated end.
And, far from what would be a failure,
Big Brother got into that cable car without apparent need
.
We have already heard many times, from the driver, that
"this has happened in other countries, guys"
or
"this is part of the game and it always happens, don't worry"
.
That justification from Santiago del Moro sounded
every time people entered the house... no matter what
.
Although it is true that
the Dutch format has a certain elasticity
, and that it can be adapted to the needs of each country, it is assumed that
what must be protected like gold is isolation.
That's what GH is about
: a confinement reality show.
Holder and Mora, two of the three who returned on Monday, to the surprise of the three finalists.
More than one will be able to say that the confinement, in a certain way, was guaranteed because none of the three finalists -
Julieta, Nacho and Marcos
- left the house in more than five months.
They were part of
the initial team of 18 participants that on Monday, October 17, crossed the threshold
to start the tenth edition of the program in Argentina.
This door was opened for your passage
But between that day and today,
the famous door that was set up to expel more than to receive was spent welcoming
.
'Hello, how are you'
to the new playoffs (
Ariel
and
Camila
, in a classic letter from the game),
'Hello, how are you'
to three who had already been there to play again (
Juliana, Daniela and Agustín
)...
'Hello how are you'
to
La Tora
(who was able to return when GH took Juliana out of the game for talking too much),
'Hello' how are you'
to six relatives to stay a few days and finally (some) stayed two weeks,
"Hello how are you"
to
Alfa
to come back for a little while (it is still not understood what he entered, beyond to warm up the rating again and boy did he succeed that night).
Go on…
"Hello, how are you"
to other relatives of the four semifinalists (including
Romina
, who left last Sunday) so that they can spend a few hours in the house,
"Hello, how are you"
a few days later to Marcos's brother who had not arrived on time for the family reunion and, now, 'Hello
how are you'
to the first three eliminated.
Rodolfo, Nacho's father, in the confessional, like one more player.
And with Blackberry and Caramel to upa.
The one who was fired returns without being voted
Why did they enter, more than one may have wondered?
And
the three who resist confinement must continue to ask
, according to their faces.
And his gestures.
According to the production, they entered to "campaign for each of the three finalists."
But, curiously, they are not the three most television characters among the exes (as if
they could be Coty or Alfa, spicy, controversial, who generated content
) nor the three most loved by Julieta, Nacho and Marcos.
On this side of the screen
it is difficult to understand a campaign in favor when there is no choice between the parties
.
If she could have, she surely would have chosen Daniela, Nacho La Tora and Marcos Agustín.
There would have been three teams in which, at least, as viewers, one could find chemistry and even affection.
It is also true that
GH is not a club of friends.
And that to make friends is life
.
But no less true is that, to be neat -at least- with the viewer, it is best
not to reinvent so many rules to continue getting juice from an orange that has already borne fruit
.
The night at the end of December when Agustín and Daniela re-entered.
Later, La Tora had its chance.
The stretching and the "new rules" that force to draw arguments
that -according to the pulse of the networks and the word of mouth from offices, bars and elevators- are not well understood,
end up overshadowing a program that knew how to shine in terms of rating
on a TV in the doldrums.
There will be someone who says that this Monday, with the incomprehensible (for a large part of the public, other exes and the three finalists) re-entry of
Holder, Martina and Mora
(eliminations for which many people paid at the time, voting in 9009 ),
the rating proved the production right: it was the most watched of the day with an average of 22.9 points
, very high for the current times.
Of course, there was also the expectation to see what attitude the program took in the face of the arrest of Marcelo Corazza, winner of the 2001 edition and current producer of the cycle, in the framework of a case for corruption of
minors
.
And
Santiago del Moro lived up to it, committed
, beyond the channel's statement: "For me personally, as a person, as a human being and as a father, it is a place that is very difficult for me to reach and what I always ask for is absolute justice .
And in case of being guilty,
the worst of punishments.
I do not have any kind of pious look
with respect to this crime ”.
This is how the gala opened on Monday,
between reality and harsh reality
.
High ratings are welcome, there is no doubt about that, especially when streaming and the lack of local productions lurk.
But, beyond the numbers,
this GH didn't need to break the rules so much
.
It is true that many of them are made for someone to break them, but
if we play confinement, don't fill my house with people, come on Big
.
