John de Mol has personally put a line through the new TV program that Andy van der Meijde and Gordon would make for SBS 6. “He found me tame,” says Andy.
Gordon’s TV comeback seems to be waiting for a while. There will be no sequel to his much -criticized real -life soap and now the new reality show with colleague Andy van der Meijde is canceled. According to Shownieuws SBS 6 owner John de Mol personally put a stop to that, because he found it disappointing.
Will not come
Show expert Bart Ettekoven brings the news. “Do you know that joke from those two men who would get a TV program here at SBS 6? That program is not going to come. Dear Gordon & Andy, would be called the program.”
And that show is canceled. “Gordon already had an idea for the Lieve Gordon program anyway, in which he wanted to fulfill people’s wishes, so if you wanted to have a marriage arranged by Gordon or a meeting with a big star, he would arrange that. Later he was in that famous YouTube series of Andy.”
Gigachemia
Andy makes a show in which he interviews BN’ers while driving. “Gordon was next to that, and those two had a gigachemia. That was laughing, howling, roaring, so then they thought: hey, should we not just do this with the two of us? That’s how the whole idea ever came about, but now it is not going on.”
Bart then jokes towards colleague Ronald Molendijk: “I see the disappointment on Ronald’s face that this is not going to come! Still? You were very pleased with this?”
Far too tame
Ronald has nothing at all with Gordon. He says, “Yes, I don’t know how to go on now.”
Gordon does not want to respond; He refers to Andy. Bart: “According to Andy, John de Mol thought he was tame. I find that very funny, because if I don’t think someone is very tame, then it is Andy.”
Colleague Airen Mylene: “He can have to get used to a little in the beginning.”
Bart: “That he is starting a bit slowly.”
Come loose
Bram Moszkowicz, good friends with Gordon, thinks that Andy is indeed what tame is. “He has to come loose.”
Airen: “In that car he is in his own environment.”
Bram: “Andy really has to have it all through a boost. The moment it is a format, then you have lost that impulsive from that boy.”
Bart concludes: “If you looked at that Songfestival commentary what they did for 538, then it is of course also very banal, so I also don’t know if it was necessarily suitable for television. It was a lot of s*ks jokes.”
