TV Xuxa was a Brazilian television program, aired on Rede Globo. It debuted as a children's program and was hosted by Xuxa Meneghel on April 4, 2005. As of 2008, TV Xuxa returned to the air, under the direction of Luiz Gleiser, as an auditorium program, it started to be shown weekly, on Saturday mornings. In 2011, the program was moved to Saturday afternoons. It was the last program presented by Xuxa on Rede Globo, after 28 years working at the network.

In its last phases, had general direction by Mário Meirelles, was directed by Andrezza Cruz and Ivana Braga and directed by Boninho.

This page will focus only about the program's second era, when it returned in 2008 and aired until 2014, after its first cancellation in late 2007, but retooled as a auditorium and variety program.

Good Qualities

 * 1) All the theme songs between 2008 until the end of the program in 2014 (despite the last ones in 2012-2014 were short) are great, like the 2008 one that it wasn't sung by Xuxa herself, which the first theme song was composed and sung by Maurício Manieri instead.

Reception
Due to the constant lost of its audience to Woody Woodpecker airings on Record Kids, Boninho planning a new Saturday programming without TV Xuxa in the plans, the refourmulation of the Globo's programming in the favor of 2014 World Cup and 2014 Elections, Xuxa with health problems, as she suffers from sesamoiditis in her right foot and to take care of her mother, the program ended on January 25, 2014, ending Xuxa's career at Rede Globo after 28 years. In 2015, Xuxa signed with Rede Record, but it only lasted five years and left Record in 2020.
