## Format

The format of the program consists of presenting two or three cases about families or couples who are in some kind of conflict who seek advice from the host, Carmen Jara. Likewise, there are also the so-called "Cuatachos"; these, together with Jara, listen to the arguments of all parties.
After the arguments of the panelists, the opinion of who is right is heard from the "Cuatachos", giving their opinion based on which side they think has the strongest argument, then the opinion of the audience is heard and, finally, that of Carmen Jara, who gives the panelists the tools and observations to solve the problem they present.

### Changes

Since September 26, 2011, the program is broadcast by Telefutura, which caused slight changes in the program's format:
* The opinion of the "Archis" was no longer unified; instead, each "Archi" (now called "cuatachos") gave his or her opinion about the conflict that the panelists brought to the program.
* The audience does not give their opinion through a single person; now, it is done through a vote with three options, in general: those who are on one side, on the other, or those who believe that no one is right. The result is then offered through a percentage. This change and the one previously mentioned have been adopted first in the Brazilian version.
* Recently, Dr. Nancy went to any city in the American Union. It started with New York.
* Dr. Nancy went to where she was called by her panelists, where the corresponding case was presented. Presenting, even though the case took place outside the studio, the same dynamic, where the "Archis" and the audience gave their opinion, and then listened to that of Dr. Nancy Alvarez.
* In 2012, Dr. Nancy announced that she had been removed from that program and that it would be hosted by Carmen Jara. Likewise, the "archis" (now called "cuatachos" in the new version) have not continued in the program, only Alexander Otaola who came since the last season with Dr. Álvarez, now accompanied by Anna Sobero (replacing Paula Arcila) and Saúl Gutiérrez (replacing Rafael Mercadante).

## Controversy with Venezuela's CONATEL

Who's Right? began airing in Venezuela on Venevisión Plus; however, from Monday, April 5, 2010, it was broadcast from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Venevisión and, due to its good audience ratings, its schedule was changed from Monday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at 12 p.m., adding one more hour.
However, in December of that same year the program was taken off the air by order of the (CONATEL) because, according to the guidelines of the so-called RESORTE Law, it was considered unfit to be broadcast at that time (since, according to that law, it is part of the so-called "children's schedule"). Due to this, the program was re-broadcast by the cable television network belonging to Venevisión, Venevisión Plus, during its regular time slot.
