With the success of the latter, Mion was hired by Rede Bandeirantes in 2002, where he hosted the show Descontrole, known for a lot of live improvisation.

He later returned to MTV Brasil, hosting the shows Covernation, The Nadas, Mucho Macho, Descarga MTV, and Quinta Categoria.

In 2006, he portrayed Emílio Redenção in Rede Record's telenovela Bicho do Mato. Later, in 2010, his work with the network continued[4] as he started to host his own show Legendários, which as of December 2016 is still ongoing. Also, he is a blogger of R7.[5]
