Beau van Erven Dorens’ talk show scores just as disappointing as Eva Jinek in her last weeks. On his third broadcast evening he already fell out of the top 15 viewership yesterday, a downer for RTL 4.
Eva Jinek was brought in by RTL 4 two and a half years ago to give the late evening shine. She started out full of ambition, but a few years later everything is very different. The viewing figures of Eva are currently quite disappointing and her successor Beau van Erven Dorens is also ailing. He fell yesterday on his third broadcast evening from the top 15 viewership.
Beau from top 15
Yesterday, on the evening of the National Remembrance Day, the talk show Beau had to settle for 459 thousand viewers and almost 11 percent market share, good for eighteenth place in the daily viewing figures overview. In comparison: Op1 is in ninth place with 732 thousand viewers (15%).
It seems that the boring guest list in particular is playing tricks on Beau. High-profile moments, such as Today Inside had, are rarely found in regular talk shows. “That Beau is just as boring as the rest. We miss Today Inside ?,” tweeted disappointed viewer Beth.
Short season
Beau only has to fill a short season. He thought the previous three months were too long and that is why he is only on the channel for six weeks. After that, so in mid-June, Humberto Tan will probably take over. It was already known that Renze Klamer will take care of the month of August.
It is unclear whether Eva Jinek will return in September. She’s notorious for her extremely long vacations, so it could just be after the turn of the year. Nothing is known about this at the moment.
Frits on one
Between Kunst en Kitsch was the most viewed entertaining program on prime time yesterday: the NPO 1 title attracted 1.3 million viewers (24%). RTL 7 takes silver with 1.2 million viewers (26%) for Real Madrid – Manchester City.
Furthermore, RTL 4’s Love is in the Air (611 thousand and 12%), SBS 6’s Soldaan van Oranje (586 thousand and 11%) and RTL 4’s Addicted (572 thousand and 10%) were the most popular.
Viewing figures
Programs that did not make the top 15 include Nieuwsuur (454 thousand), Hart van Nederland (434 thousand), Shownieuws (362 thousand) and HLF8 (308 thousand).
