Univision pulls Sabadazo from Saturday night slot

January 15, 2016 by Veronica Villafañe

Univision-SabadazoIt looks like “Sabadazo,” the Televisa-produced variety show that replaced “Sábado Gigante” tanked with U.S audiences. Univision has taken it out of the 8 pm timeslot and moved it to 12 noon.

The network is replacing “Sabadazo” with a 2-hour program called “Crónicas de Sabado,” hosted by Maria Antonieta Collins and Félix de Bedout and an episode of gossip show “Sal y Pimienta.”

A request for comment from Univision on the changes and more details about the replacement show has yet to be answered.

Hosted by actors Omar Chaparro, Cecilia Galliano and Laura G, “Sabadazo” started its Saturday night run on October 17, 2015.

The show previously aired on Univision on Saturdays at 2pm ET/PT.
