Why is The 8 Million Steps El Trece’s strongest card?

No polka fiction and no ShowMatch on the screen it became the question and answer program directed and produced by Guido Kaczka the workhorse of El Trece. With a daily average of 10 points, The 8 million steps Generally the most viewed of the channel and is among the five most successful programs on television.

With two daily broadcasts (at 2.30pm and 9.15pm) e a playful continuity between one and the otherwhich increases its rating, it also has a version childrenon Friday evenings, where boys and girls participate together with an adult family member. A combo that Kaczka can handle very well.

The format managed to find its comfortable place on the open television grid, competing with Turkish soap operas, singing reality shows and various platforms. This Wednesday, in fact, was the most viewed of the channel, with 9.5 on average.

Among the reasons for its effectiveness are: the driver’s work, the life stories of the participants who go in search of the million pesos and tell what they would invest it inthe heterogeneous and rotating jury, and the questions of general knowledge that encourage the public to test themselves from home.

Y another very interesting hook of the proposal is that, in a given game situation, the participants must choose which of their teammates is excluded from the race or who has the possibility to continue climbing. There something is released that combines strategy, empathy, solidarity or revenge.

This happens when, in the phase of climbing the steps (there is a category for each one), whoever answered (or whoever answered) must save one that, in principle, would be out of competition.

Very interesting TV pointin which the viewer is also put to the test with a kind of ‘What would I do? Would he save the one who knows the most and could he be a tough opponent? What saved me before and I return the kindness? The one with the best life story? ‘

Guido: empathic pilot

With an important training that he has accumulated in daily driving for years, Kaczka already has the timing of the program incorporated to the millimeter. Her sympathy causes the participants, for the most part, to loosen their nerves a little in front of the cameras and, in addition, answer questions about their life.

The driver knows, he guesses where to enter each one so that they tell something about their life and he succeeds sometimes dramatic situations come to light, others more amusing, but always very emotional. After, manages to contain the emotion so that it does not overflow in the continuous back and forth of questions and answers.

Ready to face any unforeseen event with participants not used to the cameras, if it’s ping pong with the little ones, even Kaczka show charisma to gain confidence in a situation where anxiety prevails in the face of challenge. However, the driver’s job prevails and everything works perfectly.

life stories

Just what is exposed every day, behind the ping pong on general culture, are the individual stories, the people behind the participants. This is why many of those who go in search of the million get membership both in front of and behind the cameras, beyond the competition for who wins the prize.

Repair or finish a house, start your own business, help parents or children, help pay for surgery or treatment Doctor, taking a long-delayed family trip are some of the dreams that every participant brings to the floor. Beyond the fact that some are more dramatic than others, Kaczka manages to make everyone feel good about their wishes to be fulfilled.

Also, more than once, participants who have already won a first million (and, depending on the dynamics of the game, can continue to participate and add millions until they make a mistake) give your seat to the next competitor in the “line” who may not have won it yet. Therefore, competition is not at odds with solidarity.

Relaxed general culture

In the style of the old question and answer cycles on different topics, with the classic Odol question in the lead, The 8 million steps it’s in a column in that lane. In this sense, unlike others of the genre, Guido’s program it is closer to the game than to the challenge in front of the cameras.

Cinema, series, literature, football, tennis, motor racing, ecology, fashion, cooking, technology, biology, the human body, outer space, phrases, songs, history, geography, science, all arguments take place in the cycle that leads Kaczka.

In the case of younger participants, the questions are age-appropriate, but no less demanding. Children are often surprised by their knowledge and commitment they show during their participation.

Jury of all colors

One of the pillars of the cycle are the juries that jump from one time slot to another, interspersing with each other. It is composed of Carmen Barbieri, Nicole Neumann, Santiago Do Rego, Gino Tubaro, Ingrid Grudke, Jimena Monteverde, sports journalists Martín Liberman and Walter Nelson and other figures who they go as guests.

the jurors come into action when the two finalists go head to head to take the million. Following the logic of the program, in terms of variety of topics, each in its own field, they form a very heterogeneous personality arcprofessions and styles, which offer participants a question with four options.

Prizes for all tastes

The big incentive of the million pesos, in this case, has the extra seasoning that can be multiplied by two, three or the millions that the participant manages to accumulate, if he continues in the race.

But in the version childrenthe prize is much more tempting for smaller participants, since they can win a trip to Disneyaccompanied by a family member.
