La Bola De Cristal
''La Bola de Cristal'' ( en, The Crystal Ball) was a Spanish television show that was broadcast on La Primera Cadena of Televisión Española from 1984 to 1988. The show was the brainchild of Spanish writer Dolores Rico Oliver (better known for her artistic name, Lolo Rico) and was hosted by pop singer Alaska. The program went beyond the norm set by the children's programs of its time and other more current ones, and bet on treating children as adults, which earned it recognition of different sectors of society. The show, which was ostensibly targeted at a young audience, reflected the spirit of the times, that of the post-Franco Spanish transition and of the cultural and musical movement known as la movida. In contrast to previous shows, with a very childish use of language, it had continuous puns related to electronics: the ''Electroduendes'' ("Electrogoblins") puppets included ''Maese Cámara'', ''Hada Vídeo'' and ''Bruja Avería'' (the Breakdown Witch) as regular characters. ...
