BarcelonaDuring the fourteen years that Save me was broadcast on Telecinco had the ability to transform itself from a conventional heart program to a kind of reality live where the collaborators became the protagonists. It was no longer necessary to report on the affairs of celebrities because what interested viewers were the stories and rivalries of the show’s commentators. The set became a kind of theater where the participants could cry, dance or eat a yogurt in front of the camera. Down the blinds of Save methe collaborators, now fully-fledged television personalities, have faced the abyss of the future.

Finished the Telecinco program, the team of Save me has spread A few days after the farewell, it was announced that some of the regular contributors to the space would have a new television life through Netflix. The experiment to rekindle the eerie spirit of Save me, save yourself who can!, arrives this Friday on the platform, which has decided to premiere the content at 9:00 p.m. as if it were a conventional television product (normally, the premieres on the platform are uploaded early on the chosen day). The new adventure of La Fábrica de la Tele, the production company that created the iconic Telecinco program, is a docureality, one of the genres that Netflix is promoting the most, with titles like I’m Georgina.
Every man for himself! brings back eight of the most famous collaborators – for better or for worse – of the Telecinco program. Belén Esteban, María Patiño, Terelu Campos, Lydia Lozano, Chelo García Cortés, Víctor Sandoval, Kiko Hernández and Kiko Matamoros go to the Americas to look for a new professional future. The first stop is Miami, where for three episodes they will meet with representatives of Hispanic chains in the United States to explore possible collaborations. In the next three episodes, which will be released in January 2024, the characters fly to Mexico City. The American journey of the collaborators of Save me it is an excuse to continue exploiting many dynamics born in Telecinco, such as the tears of Lydia Lozano, who continues to be the donkey of the blows, or the attacks of hysteria of Víctor Sandoval. Those responsible for the new Netflix product ensure that the reactions of the protagonists are always real and authentic, even if the situations have been prepared by the team behind the cameras and smell like an instant meme. They argue that the procedure is not very different from what was applied in the original program.
Exodus to Antena 3
While the eight protagonists of docureality of Netflix are the lucky ones who can continue to stretch the gum of Save me, the rest of the collaborators had to find a living elsewhere. Most have chosen to make the jump to Mediaset’s rival group, Atresmedia. One of the first to change her jacket was Adela González, one of the three presenters who were in charge of the last broadcast of Save me. The Basque journalist announced five days after the end of the program that she was returning to La Sexta, the network where she worked for two years. He currently presents alongside Boris Izaguirre Better Saturdaythe tabletop magazine of Atresmedia’s second chain.
González is not the only member of the environment of Save me which has made the jump to Atresmedia, even though it is the one with the most prominent profile. A case of a round trip is that of Gema López: for eight years she was a collaborator of Where are you Love?, from Antena 3, and when the chain decided to change the programming and leave behind the heart programs, the journalist took refuge in Telecinco. Now that Mediaset has taken the same path as Antena 3, López has made the return trip and has become a collaborator ofPublic mirror. Its incorporation was announced with great fanfare in September – with a little theater quite typical of Save me, in fact – with Susanna Griso ensuring that it was a signing “that cost a lot”. In the program, the journalist was reunited with former colleagues from Save me like Laura Fa and Pilar Vidal, head of the People section of theAbc and that in recent weeks he has starred in controversies with Carmen Lomana that have taken advantage of other programs of the group like The rock from La Sexta (a bit in the Mediaset style).
What about Jorge Javier Vázquez?
Of all the troupe of Save me, who has stayed at Mediaset has been Jorge Javier Vázquez, who is linked with the group until 2025. The chain trusted him to present Chinese storiesthe program that had to face The anthill. The results were so disastrous that two weeks after the premiere Telecinco canceled it. The one from Badalona has been orphaned from television projects and is taking advantage of this to distance himself from public life. This semi-retirement means not commenting on current television. “Now that I’m out of the circuit, it’s increasingly difficult for me to comment on the TV that’s being made. I wouldn’t like to end up being a Felipe González or an Alfonso Guerra of life,” he explained to Readings.
