Since David Broncano began his new stage in RTVE with the program La Revueltamany media and television collaborators have commented their struggle for the leadership of the prime time vs. El Hormiguero and its host, Pablo Motos.
One of the most mythical and essential members of the program that was formerly known as The Resistance is the collaborator Jorge Ponce. In addition to being known for his jokes and monologues, Ponce expresses his strongest opinion if, from time to time, topical issues have been dealt with from a most comical point of view.
This time, Ponce has given an interview to the media. El País in which he has spoken about his media rival. “El Hormiguero is a cultural reference that has worked very well for us during these years of The Resistance“The Malagueño said when asked about the type of humor he may or may not use nowadays.
“We arrived at Movistar to do a very small program, we are the last ones in line, and it’s very cool to mess with the big guys. Humor has to be done from the bottom up, and it was very easy to make those jokes with El Hormigueroa program that objectively has worked and works, very well constructed, a good television program”, he explained.
In addition, the comedian wanted to share that this year “there were people that wanted to sell” that there was a problem between programs, that they are “against them” and everything “has been taken to another place”. However, Pablo Motos’ program continues to be for them a project “with which to make jokes”. “Now we compete with them, just like with others,” he added.
Towards the opinions about the alleged bad relationship or “tension” on the part of The RevoltPonce has maintained that these are comments that have not gone beyond the first week and that the good thing about so many people seeing it is that “those people are verifying that everything they were saying was not so“.
“The program has an identity, there you have opinions, but we don’t talk about politics, current affairs, we don’t have a section where we go over the news of the week… But if something has happened with, I don’t know, Ábalosof whom we are not supposed to make jokes, we’ve thrown out a lot of jokes because we had to,” he shared in the interview.
“If you build a good joke, we tell it. Throwing out a proclamation about the rent problem for people to applaud, we don’t work that, we work a joke that talks about rents, occupancy, that criticizes somebody, but we always looking for the joke“, concluded the collaborator talking about one of his main characteristics: humor.
