The show is near and dear to many Spanish speakers, but even those who don't know the language are likely to recognize the program.

The frenetic pace of the games, musical acts, on-air family reunions, skits, models and dancers became recognizable enough to be spoofed on shows like Saturday Night Live and The Colbert Report.
