Noticiero Criptón was a Colombian newscast that aired from 1987 to 1997 on Cadena Dos/Canal A and then on TV Andina from 1998 to 2000.
It started as a weekend newscast, airing from 8 to 8:45pm.
In 1997, the Turbay family sold its stake in Criptón and instead bought a stake in Andes Televisión, pulling out of that year's licitación at the same time.

[2] Criptón left the air for the final time in 2000 as a consequence of presenter Hernán Castrillón's death.
