(Mexican music)
- It may have been playing in the background
in my grandma's house when I was like, a little kid,
but no recollection of that.
(Mexican music)
- Sabado Gigante.
- Something big?
- Giant Saturday?
- I'm half Mexican, and I've never seen this show before.
(Mexican music)
- (mispronounces the name of the segment in Spanish)
- Oh, okay, so first glance,
they have some crazy outfits on.
This dude is dressed up like a Power Ranger.
- This guy in the mask is so scary!
- Some kind of ninja?
- Okay, now they're all dancing.
(Mexican music)
- She's just singing and dancing...
Oh my God, a lion just came out of the cave!
Holy shit, what the...?
- The lion comes
and takes away the bad singers and eats them.
- This Power Ranger dude is their version of
the Apollo Broom guy that brooms your sorry ass off stage
when you're sucking it up and then the entire crowd chants.
(laughs) It's just the...
It's kind of (bleep) up but I mean, like, you know,
it's entertaining, I get it.
(Mexican music)
- This lady is like Fran Drescher.
- They're having some kind of disagreement.
But they're all smiling...
Or maybe they're just speaking very enthusiastic Spanish.
- It's fun!
It's like an interactive, play along,
at home show, you never know what's going to happen.
- So, some dude in drag just came out,
posing as a janitor, for some odd reason.
And now there's a stroller on stage.
- There's just, like, a lot going on.
- I'm speechless.
- Why are they all acting like this is just so normal?
No one in the audience...
Everyone's just like this.
(Mexican music)
- Oh, that's a lot of kids!
- The format is like, a round table,
but it's a bunch of children,
so they're behaving like they're in kindergarten,
they're like: "Oh, Don Francisco!"
Like, "Call on me!".
- All these kids seem to be under ten years old,
so that's pretty funny that they're so serious.
- This chick has some hard opinions on love.
- She also looks like a miniature woman.
- Hand motions and everything!
She's like: "Uh uh!".
- Luis has been trying to get in,
for the last, like, two minutes,
and she's just not having it!
(Mexican music)
- The costumes in this show are so bad!
I feel it's the charm of it, I guess.
- They are small! (laughs)
- It's a lot of young women and way older guys.
- I'm not sure what pills he gave this guy, he's an old guy,
so my mind's immediately going that they may be boner pills,
but I'm not sure.
- Someone's having sex next door.
- The time she spent in the room
with these two men have her tired,
so I'm not really sure (laughs) what she was doing.
- They had some weird, like multi-generational threesome.
- I have no idea what just happened.
- I guess it met all my expectations,
now that I think about it.
I thought it was going to be loud,
I thought it was going to be exciting.
- It was really interesting!
It was really colorful,
it was very over the top.
- I feel like it's a big umbrella, this show,
and you can kind of just throw in whatever you want.
- I mean, I'm really sad about it
for the hispanic community, especially if you grew up
watching this show, or you know,
if it was kind of like,
a way the family gather to spend time together
on Saturday nights.
And I mean, I know nothing will be able to replace it.
But hopefully something can sort of
come about for the generations to come.
