Re: SPAIN 2018
TVE has confirmed "Operación Triunfo" is back. We don't know when exactly (probably in autumn) and if this talent show will be used to choose the Spanish entrant for Eurovision 2018.
For those who don't know, OT was used to pick our acts in 2002, 2003 and 2004 (our three best results in this century) and this contest is responsable of the highest Eurovision rating ever in Spain (80,4% and almost 13 million people in 2002, that was the most watched TV momento until Spain won the Euro and the World Cup). Soraya (2009) and Edurne (2015) also started their career thanks to OT in its later period in a private cannel.
TBH I'm not excited. I think this format is pretty burnt. And I'm absolutely fed up with "The Voice", "The Voice Kids", "Got Talent", "Tú sí que vales", "Tú sí que sí",... etc (thank God "X Factor", "Popstars" or "Number One" don't exist anymore.
Come on, there is not so many talented people out there to fill all these talent shows!!!
