Career

Daniel Sarcos entered television in the early 1990s as a reporter and comedian on Venevisión’s variety shows, quickly earning a spot on the legendary Súper Sábado Sensacional alongside Gilberto Correa and Amador Bendayán.

By 1996 he became the main co-host of the program and its spin-offs (Mega Match Sensacional, Aprieta y Gana), turning Saturday nights into a national ritual with games, musical guests, and his trademark playful banter.

He also starred in comedy sketches and telenovelas such as Mis 3 hermanas and Toda mujer, showcasing solid acting chops beneath the humor.

In 2009 he moved to Miami to join Univision’s Despierta América, where his warmth and improvisational skills made him the show’s most popular male host for nearly a decade.

After leaving in 2018 he signed with Telemundo’s rival morning program Un Nuevo Día, continuing to reach millions across the hemisphere.

Parallel to hosting, he released two salsa albums (Daniel Sarcos y su Orquesta in 2004 and Con Swing in 2007) and toured as a singer.

In 2023, after 14 years abroad, he returned to Venezuela to take the helm of the revamped Súper Sábado Sensacional, a homecoming celebrated by fans and a testament to his enduring star power.

Daniel Sarcos remains one of the highest-rated morning hosts in Spanish-language television, now splitting his time between Caracas and Miami while mentoring younger talent and occasionally performing stand-up.

His ability to connect with audiences of all ages, whether through laughter or heartfelt conversations, has kept him relevant across three decades of changing media landscapes.
