DANCING FOR A DREAM 2018 (Bailando por un sueño) -SEASON FINALE/POLL!
Alenaveda:
The new edition of the reality "Dancing for a dream" has a starting date on April 9th, as a main segment of the TV program "Showmatch" on El Trece Channel. As in all the previous nine season, Marcelo Tinelli will host.
The competence, that is an adaptation of the Mexican reality of the same name - and it's based on "Dancing with the stars" -, consists of a couple formed by a television or theatrical personality and a professional dancer who must demonstrate their dancing skills in different musical rhythms. Each couple receives the critics and score of a jury. Couples who do not reach the cutoff score should dance once more, after which the jury choose to "save" a certain number of pairs until only two remain. One of them is then eliminated by public vote through text messages or phone calls.
When there are four couples remaining in the contest a draw is done for them to clash in duels. The two winning couples face each other in a final, in which only the public has the decision to proclaim a winner.
Here the winners of the previous seasons:
First Season (2006)

There's probably going to be a change on the program's name, and is related with something that I posted last season:
--- Quote from: Alenaveda on December 11, 2017, 11:45:03 AM ---News update:
Is not sure that the show will air tonight due to some financial problems.
This situation started last year when Marcelo Tinelli sold his company Ideas del Sur (that produces the show) to the group Indalo (who owns a pool of radios, newspapers and TV channels). Things is that with the change of the goverment was revealed that the owners of Indalo (who were politically aligned with the previous goverment) didn't pay around u$s 500 million in federal taxes - what is a federal crime - and used that money to buy part of the media companies (including Marcelo Tinelli's). A federal judge issued an embargo over all the assets of the company and the owners to cover the huge debt, and the owners are trying to get the judge authorization to sell each company (as a whole pool or individually) to cancel the debt. This has a consecuence: all the employees, journalist, tv crew, etc., are not collecting their salaries on time; and Showmatch staff has, to the date, a four month debt. So if they're not cancelling part of what is owed, they have decided not to work tonight.
--- End quote ---
This problem also had a collateral problem that is that the rights of the name "Showmatch" are not property of the production of the show nor of the channel, so - as the future new owners of Indalo stated that they will not allow the use of it - the new season of DFAD would air under the new label of "Showdance".
Alenaveda:
And there's a first list of possible contestants for this year' show circulating on different programs. Although I have that list, I will update the names as soon as I have some confirmation of them.
