Overview

• RTVE cut the show’s runtime from nearly three hours to around 70 minutes, scrapped its second block and laid off about ten editorial staff.
• On June 3, the network removed its usual panel but reinstated regular collaborators and Belén Esteban’s cooking segment after fierce viewer backlash.
• Despite multiple format changes, the program drew just 557,000 viewers and a 6.2% audience share on June 3, ranking it fifth among generalist channels in the afternoon.
• Poor performance of ‘La familia de la tele’ has dragged telenovelas down to their lowest levels in 2025, with ‘La Promesa’ at 12.2% and ‘Valle Salvaje’ at 7%.
• RTVE officials maintain cautious confidence in the show but say its future hinges on whether the latest format can reverse its downward trend.
