Vilar started his television career as part of the comedy duo of Os Tonechos, a sketch show on the late-night variety show Luar. The success of the segment led to his own late-night sketch and variety show Land Rober.
In 2011 Vilar made the move from the regional television network, CRTVG, to a national one, when he was offered a contract by Mediaset España to host the game show Salta a la vista on Cuatro.[1]
