Some laughs | Television | THE COUNTRY

The great Tip and Coll used to include the phrase "next week ... we'll talk about the Government" in their television programs. José Mota shortens the times in Not today, tomorrow (La 1), the humor program presented by that Stakhanovist of the voice in off and the promotion that is Santiago Segura and directed by the first. It shortens time and talent, that is, without bitterness.

"Right now, in the prime time there are programs that make people laugh, but there are no humor programs," Segura explained at a press conference. Of course, humor is not one, not even trine, it is multiple and diverse. There are newscasts that are an apology for absurd humor, full of bald singers and disconnected dialogues between characters who are physically close but do not get to communicate effectively. It is enough to see and hear the meetings between Pedro Sánchez and Pablo Iglesias or that ménage à trois shameful of the rights.

Parodies of Carmena and her falls, from the tomb of Franco, from the arrival of Columbus to America, from the I Want to Break Free of Queen, or of the procreative power of Julio Iglesias, or of Bertin Osborne. Thick humor without reaching Manolita Chen, references to the most popular cinema and television, a hypothetical review of the current situation with comedy as a tool and with flashes of lucidity with a team that has been battled in a thousand battles.

They are not Encarna's empanadillas, nor the glass of water, verre d'eau, of the aforementioned Tip and Coll, or the advice of Omaita, but they hold the pull: an average of 1,202,000 spectators followed the debut of the program, which reached a 10% share, surpassed, however, by My house is yours: Shaila Dúrcal. This is life.
