Reyes de la noche (transl. 'Kings of the Night') is a Spanish comedy-drama television series centered on the world of sports radio broadcasting. Created by Adolfo Valor and Cristóbal Garrido and starring Javier Gutiérrez, Miki Esparbé and Itsaso Arana, its single season aired on Movistar+ in May 2021.
The series is set in between the 1980s and the 1990s during the golden age of Spanish sports radio broadcasting.[1]
A comedy-drama,[2][3] the fiction draws a loose inspiration from the real-life rivalry between José María García and José Ramón de la Morena in the early 1990s.[2]
Paco el Cóndor, the biggest radio personality in Spain, leaves his radio station as he signs up for a competitor.[4] His aggressive style attracts the attention from the radio listeners.[5] His second in command and pupil, the younger Jota, stays and becomes his rival as they vie for hegemony in the radio system.[4] While Jota initially disapproves of El Cóndor's methods, he learns the hard way that if he is to succeed, he will need to follow his former master's steps.[5] Meanwhile, the radio programme hosted by Marga Laforet is moved to the early morning slot.[2]
