Cachureos (Chilean Spanish for odds and ends) was a Chilean television program created in 1983 by Marcelo Hernández.
Cachureos is like a game show where the host, "Tío Marcelo", gives prizes to the kids who win the competitions.
Tío Marcelo interacted with people in animal costumes who entertained the children.
That same year, 1998, the show was purchased by Canal 13 but the program's run only lasted four years on the channel due to economic problems.
[1] After a three-year hiatus the show was broadcast by Red TV.
