Pasapalabra is an Argentine television program that replicates the format of the Spanish program of the same name, which in turn is based on the British contest The Alphabet Game, and has been broadcast in intervals since 2002. It began on 7 January 2002, on Azul TV with Claribel Medina.[1] In January 2016, 15 years later, the format returned to broadcast television with Iván de Pineda as host for El trece,[2] until the end of 2020. Months later, the network Telefe acquired the rights and revived the production, starting on 1 March 2021.[3]
