History
Hosts Antonio Farré and Gigi Graciette (replaced by Guillermo Quintanilla and Sofia Webber in 1998) talked about every imaginable topic about problems that affect average couples and individuals, while different panelists and celebrity guests offered their first hand experience on the different subjects. The show became the highest-rated afternoon show on Telemundo.[2] El y Ella was taped at Raleigh Studios in Los Angeles, California during its early years, sharing its soundstage with fellow talk show, Sevcec. Midway into its run, El y Ella began taping in Mexico City. In 1998, both Farré and Graciette left the show for unknown reasons, and were replaced by Guillermo Quintanilla and Sofia Webber, respectively. The show was cancelled in 2001.
