Telemundo has announced that there will not be a new season of its reality show “Los 50”, a decision that has surprised many fans of the program.
This announcement comes in a context of strategic changes in the network’s programming for the 2025-2026 season, when the reality show was contemplated for the previous two years.
What is “The 50’s”?
“Los 50” is a reality competition show that debuted on Telemundo in July 2023.
In the program, 50 celebrities live together in an isolated ranch, facing physical challenges and social strategies under the supervision of a masked character known as “The Lion”.
The objective is to eliminate competitors until only one winner is left, who wins a cash prize.
The first season was well received by the audience, and the second season concluded in December 2024, with Robbie Mora as the winner, who walked away with a $350,000 prize and awarded $50,000 to a fan.
Reasons behind the cancellation
Although Telemundo has not issued an official statement detailing the reasons for the cancellation, it is speculated that factors such as declining ratings and the need to renew programming have influenced the decision.
In addition, the network is betting on new formats and the renewal of other successful programs to maintain the interest of its audience.
Telemundo’s new bets
Instead of continuing with “Los 50”, Telemundo is focusing its efforts on other reality shows and entertainment programs.
Among the new proposals is “Miss Universe Latina: El Reality”, a program that seeks to select the Latin representative for the Miss Universe pageant.
In addition, new seasons of “La Casa de los Famosos All-Stars,” “Top Chef VIP” and “Exatlón Estados Unidos” have been confirmed.
Will there be a replacement show?
Buzzy
The cancellation of “Los 50” can be seen as an opportunity for Telemundo to introduce fresh and relevant content for the U.S. Hispanic community.
By focusing on programs that celebrate Latino culture and talent, the network seeks to strengthen its connection with audiences and offer entertainment that reflects their interests and values.
Although “Los 50” will not return for a new season, Telemundo remains committed to offering quality programming that resonates with its audience.
With new proposals and the renewal of successful programs, the network seeks to maintain its position as one of the main entertainment options for the U.S. Hispanic community.
