Videomatch was a late-night 120-minute Argentine comedy show hosted by Marcelo Tinelli and broadcast on Telefe that first aired in March 1, 1990 in the midnight time slot.

Currently the show still airs under the name of Showmatch (changing its name after switching to channel 9). A late-night talk show is a type of talk show that first became popular in the United States. It's mostly made up of comedic monologues regarding the news of the day, guest interviews, comic sketches, and musical performances. It is distinguished by spontaneous discussion and an impression of immediacy and intimacy, as if the host were addressing to everyone of the millions of viewers individually.
