The History of A la Babalà
1989-1991

The show took off in 1990 and at first it was hosted by Diego Braguinsky (who also hosted was also responsible of hosting the beginning of Canal Nou Televisió Valenciana’s broadcastings on October 9, 1989) and by Fani Grande. A la babalà is a Valencian saying that means “thoughtlessly”. Early on, the show took place on a set with stands where a group group s of kids in pairs played games like guessing different types of food while blindfolded or changing clothes and putting on costumes as quickly as possible. Diego and Fani’s gags were juggled with cartoon series. Shows like Pacman, The Gary Coleman Show, and specially, The Ninja Turtles specially, and alongside Dragonball, which had multiple seasons, made a big splash among the audience. A French show La baby-sitter with real actors was also broadcasted. In this first stage of the show, the mascot was an elongated red rag dog, with a yellow head and red-coloured cheeks. One of Fani Grande’s most famous gags was when she came out playing La bruixa maduixa (The Strawberry Witch).

1991-1992

For the next period, there was a change in the hosts: Fani Grande and Robert Esteve started hosting the program show. The set, instead of having children in the audience, became completely virtual. The same animated series were kept on air as in the previous period, and the evil mascot of the program show made its first appearance. It was a blue, small puppet with a grey, big head and a mean face, made to contrast with the tall and smiling puppet, which still was still the good mascot of the program show.

1992-1995

In 1992, there was a radical change in the program show : both the hosts and the mascots changed. The new hosts made their first appearance in the late 1992. Their names were Xoni (Ricardo Jordán), Poti (Carme Juan), and Tiriti (José Vicente Baynat), and their aesthetic was way more modern than in previous periods (Xoni's hairstyle s were was reminiscent of those of urban trends, like rappers ). At that time, there were three mascots which were virtually computer animated (although still 2D). They didn’t have any names, just like the previous ones. The three of them were buck-toothed geometrical shapes: a triangle with red limbs whose cap could transform into a helicopter, a white circle with a visor and limbs, and a square with limbs that crashed with everything that surrounded it and ended up, making it end up dizzy. Dragon Ball Z was still causing a frenzy among the youngest, but Kinnikuman, Dr. Slump, Captain Planet and the Planeteers, the giant mecha series Grendizer, and Science Ninja Team Gatchaman’s rerun were also trending at that time. In this period, there were way more musical numbers than before there was an increase in musical performances, and the hosts sang used to sing the A la babalà rap (in reference to the TV show’s name and it’s its meaning in Valencian) and educative songs to promote recycling, good habits, etc.

1996-1997

A new period, marked by a new beginning. Instead of two hosts, we are introduced to Paqui Rondán, who will host the show by herself. She had been a journalist for Notícies 9, began hosting the show by herself. Paqui starts the show and introduces the new mascot, a bull terrier dog named Babalà. The club would will be named after him: from A la babalà to Babalà Club. Having children as the audience and bringing them to stage started being on trend again (with a TV video wall). The stage was red, as the color of the club, and there were physical activities and music numbers musical performances. Paqui Rondán also had two dancers to perform with her on stage (and, at the beginning of this new period of the show, the dog was real). They still broadcasted animated series, although not Dragon Ball, which had just ended. They started broadcasting Valencian TV shows, like The Triplets, and they also put on old animated series, like The Charlie Brown and Snoopy Show.

1997-2000

The structure of the program show barely changes. The scenery is different, but with the same colours. And the host is now María Abradelo, who had made herself known in the karaoke program show named Canta, canta, starts hosting the show . The mascot, Babalà, becomes a dog cartoon cartoon dog and sketches are done where it is shown doing he does many activities, like such as painting, and boxing, etc. are created.

2000-2001

In this period, the Babalà Club is located in a sort of attic where María Abradelo hung out with two teenagers (Lidia and Teo) and two children (Ana and Ferran). They starred in gags and covered the program show of the Fallas (2000 and 2001) and the Hogueras of de San Juan (Alicante).

2002-2006

María Abradelo was again the only host of the program show. However, the plot now then was centred on the Babalà ship, in which not only was María but also the dog Babalà (a giant humanoid stuffed dog man ) and a flying machine named Bolet, that resembled a coffee maker, talked in Valencian, was a scaredy-cat and knew a lot of things. In their trip with the ship, they looked for intelligent life and explored new planets. In that moment, the series T he series in that moment were all in Valencian.

2006-March 2009

The hosts were Pau and Nina, a pair of teenagers that starred in gags with Babalà, again, a giant stuffed dog with a man inside. The scenery stopped being virtual and started to simulate seem like colourful playgrounds. The hosts starred in musical sketches like El rock del Babalà.

March 2009-November 2013

The last stage of the club suffered again a name change. It was now called Babaclub and it included a collection of puppets that resembled Los Lunnis, from TVE. The new characters from Babaclub are Babalà, BabaDo, BabaRré (an anteater with a flute as a nose), BabaSí, BabaMí (a cat), PolPol (it pollutes polluted and has had a machine that turns turned everything into smoke, as it pollutes polluted a lot sometimes, and parts of its body fall fell off), the professor Sol, the duo Penta and Grama (two rats), Silfa and MacMicro (a monkey journalist). The names of the characters form formed the notes of a pentagram, in the solfège notation. All the characters were animals that lived in the workshop of the wise inventor professor Sol and had a music group together. They all crowded around there, including the rats Penta and Grama, that lived in a crack of the workshop and watched all that happened in the professor’s television. Silfa was a forest girl in a form of a magic halo that was able to talk with animals. In this last stage, the series still were mostly Valencian.
