Newscasts CadenaTres had three daily newscasts, early morning, afternoon and nightly, as well as hourly recaps. The main newscasts were the afternoon (led by Yuriria Sierra) and nightly programs. The nightly newscast had various anchors throughout its run, being the most important Pedro Ferriz de Con, Pablo Hiriart, and toward the end of the channel's life, Francisco Zea. They were famous for their rather aggressive and opinionated editorials by the anchors for nearly every report. Sports Boxing and wrestling were the first major sports programming on CadenaTres (aired on Saturday evenings). After Grupo Imagen acquired Querétaro FC, Liga MX soccer also became part of its sports programming, although it never managed to carry as many games as Televisa or TV Azteca. Telenovelas Thanks to several associations with Latin American networks such as Venevision, Televen, Telemundo and RCN (Colombia), CadenaTres aired several telenovelas and drama series. The last of these series was RCN's El Estilista, which was cut short on October 23, 2015. On January 20, 2010, Argos and CadenaTres signed and agreement to create new and exclusive content for the network. Shows such as Las Aparicio (2010), El Sexo Débil (2011) and El octavo mandamiento (2011) enjoyed both critical and audience acclaim. Comedy and political satire Arguably, CadenaTres's major success was the political satire show Mikorte Informativo, a newscast parody inspired by The Planet of the Apes that featured three news anchors with a simian appearance that came from the planet Mikón and criticized the news every week, mostly national news (similar to SNL's Weekend Update). It first aired on November 29, 2009. The success of Mikorte Informativo spun-off the creation of a weekend programming block known as Barra Desinformativa (Misinformation Block) in 2014. It featured two new shows that were very similar to the format of Mikorte: El Incorrecto (hosted by Eduardo Videgaray and José Ramón San Cristóbal, originally aired on E! Latino) and Ya ni llorar es bueno (hosted by stand-up comedian Gon Curiel). A short-lived venture with production company Adicta Films in 2012 led to the creation of two original sitcoms: El Albergue and La Clínica. These were generally panned by both critics and the audience. International programming An association with Sony Entertainment Television Latin America allowed CadenaTres to acquire shows such as The Shield and CSI: New York and the reality show Latin American Idol around 2010/2011. Up to its final date, CadenaTres acquired several old
