¡Extra!: Las Paranoticias

A comedy and fiction news programme based on totally false reports, while adhering to the cannons of yellow television journalism.

Rather than trying to trick the viewer or pass off fictitious things as truth, this show merely aims to entertain and amuse its viewers as a news magazine program that is full of absurd, ridiculous features and reports.
The show parodies the content of certain sensationalist newspapers where news about extraterrestrials and paranormal phenomena take centre stage.

¡EXTRA! draws on every means possible to give its stories authenticity and hilarity: live connections, intrepid reporters, in-studio interviews with the stars or the people involved in different news pieces, in-studio discussions of analysts and specialists on the issues explored, telephone calls to the people involved, eyewitnesses who attest to the facts or appear in camouflage (the typical wig and dark glasses).

In a word, ¡EXTRA! embodies the birth of innovative news genres such as fantastic journalism and fiction news.
