El Gran Wyoming's TV Journey
El Gran Wyoming has hosted many popular TV shows throughout his career.
Early TV Shows
He started hosting programs like Silencio se juega in 1984. Later, he presented La noche se mueve in 1992. In 1993, he hosted El peor programa de la semana. The last episode of this show was not broadcast by Televisión Española. This happened because of an interview where a joke was made about a member of the royal family. The official reason given was that the show had low ratings.
Caiga quien caiga and El Intermedio
In 1995, El Gran Wyoming returned to TV on the private channel Telecinco. From 1996 to 2002, he presented Caiga quien caiga. In this show, he used humor to comment on current events and governments.
In 2004, he got another program on Televisión Española called La azotea de Wyoming. This show was moved to a different day and then cancelled in 2005.
