Arjen Lubach and RTL have the most viewed talk show, today inside, forbidden to broadcast a fragment from Flopcomedian Stefan Pop. “You will send it away at a school party!”
What a nightmare for Arjen Lubach: he may now grab millions of RTL, but the respect seems completely disappeared. Where he was always used to the same weather forecast at the public broadcaster – a rain of compliments – he is quite under fire after his move to the late evening of RTL 4. It is enormously under a magnifying glass.
Stefan Pop
The substantive low point of his commercial show so far? The performance of stand-up comedian Stefan Pop in Wednesday’s episode. It was so bad that Angela de Jong wrote a whole column about it, Victor Vlam handed out an X-Neer and viewers were released social media. Is this now what Peter van der Vorst pays millions for?
What is painful: apparently they thought it was also very bad at RTL, because today Inside the fragment of that joke jacket was not allowed to broadcast last night. And that while the channel is normally fairly shooty when it comes to selling fragments to the Hitshow of Wilfred Genee. This way we often see things from Beau pass by.
Why that embarrassment? Why this self -censorship?
“Runs well!”
Wilfred is cynical about it. “Lubach is gone at the public broadcaster on time, he has more money, so he can make better programs, right? It is going better!” He shouts in Today Inside.
Johan Derksen goes with it: “Yes, you see that right away! Good guests!”
René van der Gijp laughing: “Yes, yes!”
Table guest Job Knoester: “Yes, but it wasn’t fun there either, at the NPO. It is reading jokes and a laughing band underneath.”
School party
Then Cringecabaretier Stefan Pop is discussed. “I can’t imagine that you come up with the idea of giving that boy space on TV, because you can’t let it perform at a school party,” said Johan.
René Laughing: “No, they will find that today, I think!”
Wilfred: “Apparently, because we had requested the images from Stefan Pop. At first it seemed that we got them and suddenly we didn’t get them. Angela column had also gone over and Victor Vlam had already found it a bit.”
“What’s this?!”
It is a flater from Arjen, says Wilfred. “Why do you put such a boy there in one of the first weeks who all starts to tell cliché story about how heavy it is as a parent and things like that and Monkey Town? That you think: what is this about?”
René: “No. bad.”
Raymond Mens: “But should you not show that fragment now than his?”
Wilfred: “No, we can’t show anything.”
Failing Janine
Arjen sells his soul to RTL, flopped with a cringa bareter and is now trying to ban his own decline. Au. Johan believes that Arjens editor-in-chief Janine Abbring, also his ex-lover, can also be blamed. “That ex-girlfriend of him is such a good editor-in-chief? He didn’t put it for it either.”
Story boss Guido den attracter points to X on the falling viewing figures of Censuurkomiek Arjen: “Hate to say I Told you so, but… “, he writes.” I think RTL eagerly won the wrong name for way too much money. Lubach laughs drowsy, although his TV value will also plummet; Penny Wise Pound Foolish. “
