Eva Jinek pulled Arjen Lubach away from his bookkeeper yesterday to hold a promotional street in her talk show. “He also turned out to be sensitive to the deep pockets of RTL,” she notes.
When Arjen Lubach is a guest in another program, it is always only noticeable where his humorous talent comes from: the autocue. In fact, all his media performances are always very boring and so are that from last night Eva. What does it deliver? A hug from the hostess and some talks to pretend that you are not just hard for the money at RTL.
BankApp Refreshen
Eva Jinek announces Arjen in a striking way. “If you are successful, people want to bring you to their channel and yes, Arjen Lubach also proved sensitive to the deep pockets of RTL. I can’t blame him!”
Then Eva casually explains what she did after her switch to RTL: Open the ING app. “You have been working at RTL for three months now and what is the biggest difference compared to all those years that you have worked at the NPO? Except that you are refreshing your bank app to look at your salary.”
Outdoor producer
Arjen then comes with a very boring story. “Yes, that, and also the coffee with beans that went through cats and so on. No, the thing is … I make a program for RTL, but you have something like an outdoor producer and that is the producer with whom I make this program. And before we sold the program to the VPRO and now to RTL.”
Everything is the same, according to the presenter. “Yes, so I have the same people, the same team. Everyone is with me. I have the same office, we have the same studio. A new decor and so on, but we have everything the same thing, so I don’t notice very little. Only lunch is a lot more luxurious.”
Partly possible
Arjen was also allowed to respond to the unveiling of Tina Nijkamp that he does not want to be ‘made possible’ by a sponsor. “Yes, no, that’s right. They want that at first, but the program is also called Lubach, isn’t it? Then you would hear:” Lubach is made possible in part by apple sauce from Unilever. ” I thought: I don’t want that. “
“I have agreed in the negotiations. No mandatory RTL guests, editorial independence, we can do everything we want. I thought: let me ask if it should not be called that, but:” The RTL evening is made possible by. ” I know a lot, I thought: they are looking for how it’s called. “
Risk
What does MediaCiticus Victor Vlam think of it? He writes on X: “The message of Arjen Lubach at Eva is clear: his new program at RTL is almost the same as his old program at the NPO. He plays on safe. But there is also a risk that his RTL show is not innovative enough.”
Story-boss Guido den pick-up: “I think that all involved will become unhappy of this transfer in the medium term. A business marriage without real love.”
“Honestly!”
Eva also gets a wipe from the pan. For years she has played millions at RTL while she was lazing in the back garden and now jokingly puts Arjen away as someone who is also going to fill his pockets. Small difference: Arjen does have a healthy work ethic.
Mediajournalist Jef Willemsen: “Surrealistic television moment: Eva Jinek, brand new back from a lucrative stay at RTL, crisical notes about #lubach and Arjens collaboration with her old employer is not difficult?” Oh, Honestly…! ”
