Abstract
El infoshow es el macrogénero de mayor crecimiento a nivel global durante las últimas décadas. Esto se debe, en gran medida, a los procesos de desregulación de los mercados televisivos, que han fomentado que los contenidos se adapten cada vez más a los gustos y demandas de la audiencia. En España, el auge del infoshow comenzó en la década de los 2000, en un contexto de crisis económica y desafección política que propició un mayor interés del público general por temas económicos, sociales y políticos, todos ellos muy propicios a la crítica y la espectacularización. En este contexto, la sátira de actualidad se consolidó como un género destacado en la televisión española. Esta investigación se centra en El Intermedio, producido por Globomedia para La Sexta. Este programa formaba parte de los primeros contenidos con los que la cadena inició sus emisiones oficiales, en el año 2006, y sigue presente en su prime time dieciocho años después. Se trata, sin duda, del programa más longevo y, también, uno de los de mayor éxito de su parrilla. Aunque sigue la tradición de formatos previos, El Intermedio ofrece un enfoque innovador alejándose del ámbito puramente humorístico para ofrecer un acercamiento alternativo a las noticias de actualidad. Mediante el análisis de contenido de sus diez primeras temporadas se analiza el perfil de sus presentadores y colaboradores y su estructura de contenidos. Los resultados muestran un enfoque innovador en el tratamiento de las noticias y en el equilibrio entre la función informativa y el entretenimiento.
The infoshow is the fastest growing macro-genre globally in recent decades. This is largely due to the deregulation of television markets, which has encouraged content to adapt more and more to the tastes and demands of the audience. In Spain, the rise of the infoshow began in the 2000s, in a context of economic crisis and political disaffection that led to a greater interest of the general public in economic, social and political issues, all of which are very conducive to criticism and spectacularisation. In this context, current affairs satire was consolidated as a prominent genre in Spanish television. This research focuses on El Intermedio, produced by Globomedia for La Sexta. This programme formed part of the first content with which the channel began its official broadcasts in 2006, and it is still present in prime time eighteen years later. It is undoubtedly the longest-running programme and also one of the most successful on its schedule. Although it follows the tradition of previous formats, El Intermedio offers an innovative approach, moving away from the purely humorous sphere to offer an alternative approach to current affairs. This paper analyses the content of its first ten seasons, the profile of its presenters and contributors and its content structure. The results show an innovative approach in the treatment of the news and in the structural balance between informative and entertainment contents.
