spoke negatively about his experience as guest on ''El Hormiguero'', in an interview with Conan O'Brien on TBS (U.S. TV channel), TBS's ''Conan (talk show), Conan'', Pablo Motos gave a humorous retort to the actor and the American talk-show host from the Spanish program. In 2011, ''El Hormiguero'' was nominated to an International Emmy Award in the Non-scripted entertainment category, but didn't win. As told in the 16 January broadcast, Pablo Motos was offered Santiago Segura's Spanish character on ''Jack and Jill (2011 film), Jack & Jill'' by Adam Sandler himself, who has been a guest on El Hormiguero on several occasions. Motos couldn't speak English, so the offer flustered him, but when he was ready to decline it, some of the show producers spoke with Sandler about the idea, reaching an agreement: They would send a screen test with Pablo performing his lines, learned by phonetic sounds. Jorge Ventosa, one of the producers, performed Sandler's female role. Motos and Segura (who is a frequent collaborator) decided to broadcast the audition during an interview on the programme, promoting the release of the movie. In 2009, Siete y Acción licensed the show's format to Grundy Italy, an Italian production company, to produce a local version of the show, but its pilot was never picked up. Also in 2009, Chilean and Portuguese versions were produced: in Chile the show flopped and was axed within a month; the Portuguese version ran successfully until 2013 in various timeslots on SIC (Portuguese TV channel), SIC. In June 2010 the Mexican version of the show premiered: it was produced for two series but was unexpectedly cancelled during its second series as a cost-cutting measure by TV Azteca. The Brazilian version premiered ten days afterwards, but was axed within a year. In 2013 there was an attempt by
