So the show was turned into a humor format from 1991, after which the rates soon rose sharply and the show to one of the most successful programs of Argentina was.

The concept of the show included Hidden camera and various parodies on political life and show business in Argentina, which were often shown in the form of musical contributions. Also humorous sports segments remained in the early days made ​​, but then declined in importance. It will be moderated since the onset of Marcelo Tinelli.

Tinelli 1998 won for his work on the show to broadcast Martín Fierro de Oro price. Until 2004 she was, apart from brief interruptions, continues to be sent in Telefe and had normally good rate values ​​. 2005, however, there was a dispute between Tinelli and the program directors of Telefe. As a consequence, the show moved to Canal 9 and changed its name to show match. The concept is a significant change, instead of humor contests were now mainly (initially diverse, then punktuellere, such as dance, singing and figure skating competitions) presented.
