El Show de Xuxa was a children's program hosted by Xuxa Meneghel in Argentina, from 6 May 1991 to 31 December 1993 and directed by Marlene Mattos.[1]

The program

Due to its success in Brazil, Xuxa signed a contract with Telefe channel in the early 1990s to present a spanish version of Xou da Xuxa.

El Show de Xuxa, the Argentine version was a phenomenon, reaching 24 rating points (more than in Brazil). The program became Xuxa in a celebrity in several countries in Latin America and served as support for the release of his albums in Spanish. One of the most remembered album of his career is his first disc Xuxa 1, released in 1989/90.[2] It contains great successes of the presenter with Ilarié, Arco-Ires, Bombón, Quiero Pan, Campeón, Dulce Miel, Danza de Xuxa, Juguemos a los Indios, Receta de Xuxa e El Circo. This was the first program to be broadcast abroad with a Brazilian host.[3]

Although displayed in the late afternoon, the program was identical to Xou da Xuxa from scenery to games and drawings. The only difference in the Argentine program was that the entry of children under five years was allowed, unlike Brazilian program. The characters were also exported to Argentine program and were part of the cast Paquitas, Dengue, Praga and even the Irmãs Metralha, that in Argentina began to call Melizas.

Five programs were recorded per day every two weeks. The "Show of Xuxa" came to be displayed for 17 Latin American countries and the United States by Univision.[4][5]

In 1993 happened to be produced independently, no longer in Telefe, and was being transmitted in Argentina by Canal 13. The reason given at the time was that the station's studios had become small to accommodate the number of children who wanted to participate in recordings, beyond what was required by issuing various rules and standards that limited the freedom of creation and presentation of the program. In 1992, had to be recorded in Brazil, due to the fire in the studio.

The last episode was aired on December 31, 1993, after Xuxa chose to invest in your career in Brazil.
