In late August 2013, it was announced that
laSexta and
Globomedia were preparing
Zapeando, a live chat about television where a host and a group of collaborators would comment with humour all the actuality related to television, both nationally and internationally. On October 4 it was revealed that
Frank Blanco would be his host, and a few days later his collaborators, which would be
Celia Montalbán, César García,
Mar Vega,
Miki Nadal,
Quique Peinado,
Santi Villas,
Sergi Mas and
Susana Guasch. Although its release was planned for November 11,
Zapeando finally began to be broadcast on November 18, 2013 at 3.45 pm. Since then, it has been aired from Monday to Friday on the afternoons of
laSexta. After some weeks of broadcast, the program began to incorporate innovations that gave a more fluent and better appearance to the program, such as the introduction of a script and adding a central table in which the presenter and the collaborators sit down. Some of them left the program (César García,
Mar Vega,
Santi Villas,
Sergi Mas,
Celia Montalbán and
Susana Guasch) but new ones came, such as
Sara Escudero,
Ana Morgade,
Cristina Pedroche and
Manu Sánchez. Little by little, more collaborators have joined the program, such as
Anna Simon,
Josie,
Leo Harlem,
Lorena Castell or
Llum Barrera. Others left to dedicate themselves to other projects, such as
Irene Junquera,
Sara Escudero or
Manu Sánchez. In addition, new collaborators are occasionally introduced during the summer to substitute the regular ones during this period. The audience of the program has improved greatly since its beginning, with audience shares between 7% and 9% share and a number of viewers between 800 000 and one million on average. Its audience record was achieved in the program 500 (November 23, 2015), with an average of 1 200 000 viewers and an audience share of 9.4%. At the present, the network channel is satisfied with the positive audience evolution data, reaching more than 800 000 spectators and occasionally a million spectators. Since September, 2019 the program is hosted by
Dani Mateo. == Program team ==
