The talk show Khalid & Sophie finally gives NPO 1 rising viewing figures. By going with the summer break, the channel sees its early evening scores grow considerably. “Repeats score better!”
It seems that NPO 1 will do exactly the same with Khalid & Sophie as it did with M for years: pulling a dead horse. Despite the severely disappointing viewing figures, presenters Khalid Kasem and Sophie Hilbrand can simply return after the summer on the eve of the country’s most watched channel.
Khalid & Sophie humiliated
The fact that the viewer is not waiting for that at all is once again apparent from the fact that NPO 1 sees its viewing figures increase now that Khalid & Sophie have gone on their summer holidays.
Where the talk show of the BNNVARA duo last week captivated an average of 442 thousand viewers, the successor, a repeat of We Are There, attracted 679 thousand viewers yesterday at the same time. With this, NPO 1 managed to captivate almost 22 percent of all viewers at that time.
‘This is a good move’
It is striking, according to viewing figures expert Tina Nijkamp. Broadcasting We’re Almost There at 7 p.m. seems like a good move,” she writes.
Khalid & Sophie is not the only talk show that is embarrassed by the viewer, according to Tina. “Show news Summer edition invariably scores better than HLF8 did at 7.30 pm.”
Sybrand on one
In addition to the success of We Are There Almost, Omroep MAX also delivered the prime-time winner yesterday: the start of the season of MAX Vakantieman captivated 1.2 million viewers (26%) on NPO 1. : Sybrand Niessen”, says Tina.
Dionne Stax caused many zappers, because immediately afterwards she only attracted 694 thousand viewers (16%) with Dionne Close to The First Ladies.
The other most viewed prime-time titles were RTL 4’s Koop Zonder Kijken (1.1 million and 25%), SBS 6′ Familie Gillis (654 thousand and 14%) and NPO 2’s Nieuwsuur (530 thousand and 12%).
Viewing figures
Other programs that didn’t make the top 15 include Humberto (542 thousand), Shownieuws (432 thousand), Chateau Meiland (413 thousand), Shownieuws Summer Edition (342 thousand) and 112 Today (335 thousand).
