Xuxa Meneghel (2015)

Xuxa Meneghel was a Brazilian auditorium program that was produced and aired by RecordTV, in partnership with producer Casablanca. It was presented by Xuxa Meneghel, on Monday nights, and was aired between August 17, 2015 and December 19, 2016, with the special "XuChá". Originally the program would have a new season in 2017, however the channel and the host decided to finalize it in order to focus on the new project, Dancing Brasil.

Why It Loses Records

 * 1) As shown with TV Xuxa in its adult era in 2008-2014, Xuxa doesn't work in adult auditorium programs, and mainly it was the same program that ended due to the constant loss of audience to Record Kids with Woody Woodpecker, ironically from RecordTV on Saturday afternoons, which accumulated Xuxa leaving Globo to sign a contract with RecordTV in the same year of 2015 to debut on the channel with this program, which was not better than TV Xuxa in 2008-2014.
 * 2) It feels like a poor Brazilian talk show's version of The Ellen DeGeneres Show and also a tiresome self homage to Xuxa. It also tries to imitate the program of the same name by the late Hebe (which coincidentally was aired on Monday nights like this program of Xuxa years ago), as both programs have a white sofa.
 * 3) Xuxa imitating Ellen DeGeneres and even the late Hebe Camargo in the hosting of this program is not good, since she should be herself in the presentation of the program than to imitate another person.
 * 4) The segments are very boring and ridiculous to watch.
 * 5) It has a lot of references and filthy jokes about sex, so much so that RecordTV themselves didn't like it.
 * 6) The indirects Xuxa gives to Globo (her former channel) are weak and also do not help to improve the program, since it was aired on RecordTV, infamous for having horribly used its journalism for attacks against Globo.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) The set is very good and very detailed.
 * 2) The opening is very catchy.
 * 3) Xuxa Meneghel is a mostly good person in real life, that's because she had a horrible TV program on RecordTV, mainly it's her first program on RecordTV since she left Globo in 2014.

Reception
Patrícia Kogut of the O Globo website said that Xuxa's debut at Record was "without major news." Mauricio Stycer in review for blog Os Fera said that "Xuxa debuts without a subject, but with good Twitter jokes and an attack on Globo (...) it is possible to say that, with the exception of sound repair, suffering, and framing failures, acceptable live, no major errors occurred. The problems that drew attention at the premiere were of a different order: lack of ideas and poverty of subjects." Journalist Luciana Liviero praised the making of edition, but criticized the outfit, the quality of the audio and the Xuxa fans in the audience.

Flávio Ricco criticized the program in its review for TV e Famosos saying: "There's no use trying to deceive: Xuxa doesn't have a program on Record yet (...) People close to Xuxa and their most passionate fans have complained about Record, with complaints ranging from working conditions offered to the lack of a greater number of promos. What is missing, really, is a good program. (...) Since arriving at Record, leaving a not so comfortable situation at Globo, Xuxa was given complete freedom to do what she liked. (...) There have been several absences in her team and what has been shown so far is far from being something that attracts the public's attention." TV critic José Armando Vanucci said that "Xuxa is a communicator, she surpasses the 'presenter', but there is still no chemistry with Record. Her audience is not at Record, unfortunately."

The program debuted in the isolated vice-leadership closing with 11.4 points of average; 13.3 peak and 19% share, but as the program passed, the program lost its ratings, scoring averages between 6 to 8 points average with peaks of 11 points on some occasions, thus, it was difficult to get vice-leadership and only the premiere of the program achieved the vice-leadership.
