A new talent show in prime time
According to what Juan Etchegoyen said on Mitre Live (Radio Mitre), Guido Kaczka will debut his new show during the first week of March. The show will air in prime time and will have a structure similar to major talent shows.
The format would be inspired by the Got Talent style, with participants from different fields and a panel of judges made up of well-known personalities.
Abel Pintos, the leading name for the judging panel
Among the names being considered for the judging panel, Abel Pintos appears as the main candidate. The production team states that negotiations are very advanced.
The idea is to form a panel of four judges with varied profiles and strong appeal to the audience. Along those lines, the team also tried to add an international star.
Xuxa was close but turned down the offer
The show's production team reportedly tried to hire Xuxa for the judging panel. However, the Brazilian artist turned down the offer due to work commitments and the impossibility of relocating to Buenos Aires.

Despite this setback, the channel continued contacting top-tier artists to finalize the team.
An ambitious show to fight for ratings
Sources at El Trece emphasize that it will be a large-scale show, with technical deployment, emotional stories, and a format that has been proven internationally. The tentative title of the show would be The Best of the Family, although it has not yet been officially confirmed.
The goal is clear: to challenge prime time leadership against Telefe and its main entertainment bet.

According to Teleavisador on X, the drama could premiere in February and is presented as another major move to attract viewers.
