Beto Casella could leave Canal 9: which channel could he move to?

Beto Casella is going through a pivotal moment in his television career. After several months of tension with Canal 9, the historic host of Bendita publicly acknowledged that he's considering offers from other networks and isn't ruling out a professional shift for 2025. The working conditions at the station, combined with internal conflicts and an atmosphere of uncertainty, have led him to seriously consider his future.

Rumors began to gain traction after the show aired without an audience in the studio, a decision that sparked speculation about budget cuts and discontent behind the scenes.

According to journalist Alejandro Castelo on the show Ya fue todo (Jotax), Casella is reportedly in talks with América TV and El Trece, networks interested in a format similar to Bendita.

Far from denying these reports, Beto himself fueled the suspicions during a broadcast of his radio show Nadie nos para (Rock & Pop): "Every year in September, networks start testing the waters with us. They make us offers for Bendita to leave Nueve. I meet with them out of courtesy, we always have lunch, drink coffee... But this year I'm paying much more attention to them."

His words reflect clear fatigue with his current television home, where he's been on the air for more than 17 years. Although until now he's always remained firm in his decision to stay, the current context seems to have shifted his priorities.

During the 2025 Martín Fierro Radio Awards, Casella once again addressed the economic difficulties faced by many technical and production teams in the media.

"Salaries have stayed the same as they were four years ago. Groups of producers, editors, and operators should get together to politely explain what's happening to them," he told the press.

He also encouraged his colleagues to make their demands heard: "I'm inviting you not to stay silent and to speak up. Billing isn't doing so badly in radio or TV."

When asked by journalist Fernando Zabala for Vision Show whether he had been approached by Canal 13, Casella replied with a wink: "I don't know if it's a good idea for me to say it, but when there's a situation like this, I get messages from all the broadcast networks."
