Caldeirão com Mion


Caldeirão com Mion, or simply Caldeirão, is a Brazilian variety show broadcast by TV Globo. Premiering on September 4, 2021, it is hosted by Marcos Mion, serving as a successor to ''Caldeirão do Huck.''

History

In June 2021, Globo announced that Fausto Silva had left the network, and that his long-running variety show Domingão do Faustão would be replaced by a new program hosted by Luciano Huck, who had hosted the Saturday-afternoon variety show Caldeirão do Huck.
In August 2021, Marcos Mion—who had previously been known for his tenure at MTV Brasil—signed with Globo to host programs on TV Globo and Multishow. Mion was announced the new host of Caldeirão, with Globo initially considering it to be an interim role. In October 2021, after strong ratings performance and critical reception, Mion was named the full-time host.
The show underwent a refresh in March 2022, including officially being re-titled Caldeirão com Mion, adding new mascot characters as assistants, as well as the new segment Caldeirola. For its fourth season in 2024, the show underwent a retool with a new set design and logo, and moves to improve the show's variety with new segments and outside interviews.

Format and segments

Some of the segments introduced upon its premiere included Isso a Globo Mostra, and the song guessing game Sobe o Som. Only one segment from Huck's version of the show, Tem ou Não Tem, was maintained.

Reception

The premiere of Caldeirão was received positively on social media, with viewers considering it to be improved over Huck's tenure, and praising Mion's energy as host. In the IBOPE ratings, the series premiere of Caldeirão received an average rating of 15.9 rating points, and peaked at 20 points—surpassing the viewership of any edition of Caldeirão do Huck, and bringing Globo its highest average viewership on a Saturday since 2019. Its viewership remained steady in the months that followed, usually averaging around 13 points or higher in Greater São Paulo, and beating all other programs in its timeslot.
