“Look how Pedroche is, but he made all the mess on it to hide the dress!”, “Look how amazing Estopa is, the poor people don’t know where the camera is”, “Look how Chenoa is, if she is the same as twenty years ago.” The chimes of Puerta del Sol are the broadcast of “look how”. The most profitable minutes of television, because in less than half an hour we all gather in front of the screen to connect with the most famous clock in our country who will give us the grapes. And of course, the big television channels try to take advantage of this to promote themselves while attracting attention. They are looking to compete to win the “we are most seen” title. Although we have the super power of the remote control: with which we go from channel to channel to see everything, so as not to miss anything. And so that the grandmother doesn’t get angry either, she still wants to see them on the channel where she has watched them since she was little, on La 1, which celebrates its 70th anniversary this year in 2026.
But Cristina Pédroche has already created its own parallel tradition. She’s sure to catch the eye with her dress, perfect for those “look how” conversations that give us so much life. Additionally, the dress – again, rare in fabric – is perfect for the meme society: where we want visual impacts to be commented on at a glance.
The fact is that no one wants to end up with just a meme, so this change of year, one more year, defines from every balcony of the Sun how differently we must act depending on how we are:
Cristina Pedroche is the intensity of the celebration. To be taken more seriously, she must overexplain her clothing with a speech full of values and good intentions. Seek depth from superficiality. It even claims to be a fashion art and a television fantasy. This is how he made New Year’s Eve synonymous with the cold he will have and the crazy things he will wear.
And yes, he did it again, with Chicote having the courage to scream and that’s it. Despite, More and more viewers are becoming more and more insensitive to this formulafor twelve years, in a program without too many pretensions on La Sexta, the capture of Pedroche’s transparencies began to travel through cell phones in Spain. We all had an opinion. We’ve all had an idea to have more fun by having something to say at the start of the year. Pedroche has learned what his audience wants and plays it with unrivaled smiling confidence.
On the roof next door, the highest, that of TVE, Chenoa and Estopa There is no need to take them seriously for fear of being reduced to a dummy. We’ve watched all three of them grow with their music. In fact, its success is linked to the fact that we They remember the neighbors on the left fifth of our building. They look great no matter what they wear. David and José Muñoz were surprised to be therewith the advantage of not imposing too much on them either. Because it doesn’t seem like they had the life expectancy to be presenters of certain bells. AND unconsciousness is always a plus on TV. Although, inevitably, the lack of experience in a live TV show was evident and they failed to convey safety on screen. They weren’t asked to do this, but they sometimes had their backs to the camera and narrative clarity was lacking at certain points in the show. Which might prompt you to change the channel.
It is therefore the turn of Chenoa, more experienced, to take charge of organizing the ideas and summarizing the institutional messages. Which did not prevent an awkward silence. Ephemeral, fortunately. Nevertheless, The broadcast storyline gave them the material to make more things happen. Good idea to start with Estopa from the square itself. Because they are on the street. But there is a lack of that stage conviction that makes you think that everything that happens will be well told to you during the broadcast. With the ability to go beyond what is written if necessary. And my grandmother switched to Antena 3. A weakness that TVE corrected by telling anecdotes from other New Year’s Eves and taking out the guitar to tell how the clock works. Like Ana Obregón in the 90s. Although Obregón did cappella. It was like sneaking into a gathering of friends, which isn’t bad on the other hand.
And then there was a free balcony. That of Telecinco, which this year, like in previous years, describes the knowing how to leave the party when you realize that there is nothing more to do there. Or, as soon as the ceiling lights come on, you will see that the gotelé falls on you. Better to differentiate yourself until you feel a countercurrent. Even if you look out of the corner of your eye at what’s happening in Sol. SO Sandra Barneda and Xuso Jones They went to promote Formigal in the jump from 2025 to 2026 on Telecinco and Cuatro. They’ll have a bad share rate, but at least they’re charging for an ad for snow and cold, which isn’t just an allegory for how poorly audiences are performing these days. The best part was the final aerial shot, which showed the reality covering the LED stage: a parking lot full of cars. The glamor behind the decoration.
There was also the balcony of banners. In the absence of Ibai, who would put an end to the chimes of traditional television, this year, the reality show Los Gemelos on YouTube went to make noise. The option of not seeing family. If the family is sane, that is. Slaps were given and insults were also uttered. As expected. It is its raw material from which lovers of merciless mockery take advantage. But if they passed them on the street at 4 a.m., they would change sidewalks.
Different realities united by the “look how” or, failing that, the “look what” of a society that meets once a year in front of the television: “Look how La Pedroche turns around so we can see everything.” “Look how old people with Van Gogh ears are. » “Watch Amaia Montero dressed as an astronaut”“look how pretty they made Chenoa, she signed a check for eternal youth”, “look how the pranksters David and José, where did they leave their Seat panda”. Look how we’re still here, another December 31st. Watch as we continue to share moments of what unites us, even when sometimes we even believe it’s what separates us. Look how we continue to celebrate. Celebrate together. Good year. On the way to a happy new year 2026.
