And suddenly the excellent cartoon Carlos Latre A fit of nostalgia has come over him and he has ridden Xavier Sarda a revival of those ‘Martian Chronicles’ that gave them so much success between 1997 and 2005. Ahh! Caressing the past, with selective memory, always provides superlative comfort.
The most beautiful moments have been selected from the archive. Those wonderful ‘sketches’ of Galindo, Rosario Pardo, Mariano Mariano and Paz Padilla, examples of what he likes so much Sarda, the ‘buslesque genre’, which he cites with such fondness and pride. Also the interpretations of Carlos Latre masterfully cloning from politicians to The Pantoja of Puerto Rico. And especially the emergence of the phenomenon Boris Izaguirre, always making a colossal spectacle out of his naked naivety. She was screaming Latre, excited, seeing his own selection: «This was the bomb! “We were making history!”. and next to Sarda They were moved by savoring those specific moments in which they shouted against Aznar a sonorous “Not to the war!”, or when ETA murdered Ernest Lluch and Sarda bravely, he said: “Some sons of bitches have killed a fucking guy”. I mean, we make the TV we make, but we are leftist and progressive, yes.
Ah! These evoked moments today have an undeniable television value, it is indisputable. They got nothing in exchange for Coto Matamoros, one of the most famous ‘Martians’, nor of Carlos the Yoyasnor of Aída Nízar..., great builders of violence and carnage. They remembered the great Leo Bassi, but not that night when he put fresh shit in the middle of the set, next to a fan, and everyone ended up splattered with poop. That stage hit Bassi It was a sublime metaphor.
This self-tribute entitled ‘Martian Chronicles, the reunion’, has achieved a 14.2% share. Telecinco had not had such joy for at least two years. So maybe the ‘Martians’ are resurrected. I would like to return to that past in which a Sarda triumphantly said: «Criticism helps me to go belly-up». And I humbly answered him from this column (July 2003): “I am honored to have helped him relieve the garbage jam in his intestine.” Ah! They were very entertaining years on television. And above all, we were much younger.
