Anda Pa'l Cara
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Anda Pa'l Cará (loosely translated as What The Heck) is a Spanish-language television program, a late-night talk and variety show from Puerto Rico. It started in 2000 as a late night show with comedian Silverio Pérez in WLII-TV Tele Once. The show features interviews to artists and other personalities, music performances, celebrity news, curious facts, and comedy sketches.
The show has gone through hosting changes, but has remained one of the most successful shows in the island. When original host, Silverio Perez, left the show, most people thought it wouldn't survive. However, the youthful combination of comedian Luis Raul and Gricel Mamery, and their chemistry, kept propelling the show on the charts.
The same fears arose when Luis Raul left the show in 2003. A long casting process ensued, and Venezuelan host Daniel Sarcos was picked to join Mamery. Known Puerto Rican host, Sonya Cortes, was also chosen to complete the trio of hosts. However, legal problems concerning Sarcos visa didn't allow him to continue working, and Puerto Rican Rafael Jose was chosen to replace him.
In 2005, Gricel Mamery left the show and was replaced by young host Alexandra Fuentes. Curiously enough, Fuentes used to play a parody of Mamery in a show on another local channeel.
In 2006, the radio host, Rony the Hyper joined the cast in a transition move before José left the show.
In recent years, the show has faced tough competition from its Telemundo counterpart, No te Duermas, which changed its format from a weekly show to a daily show, but has remained solid among its fans.
