Catherine Keyl is the first well -known Dutchman to publicly crack the real -life soap of Gerard Joling. She finds it too meaningless. “I would have wanted to have a substantive editor.”
The first episode of the Gerard Joling-Soap has set towering viewing figures on the Friday evening of RTL 4. The reactions are generally positive and even Johan Derksen was quite pleased with it. “I think: well, that must be a weak stuff, but I have been watching animated. I liked it,” he said Inside in today.
Catherine Negative
Johan believes that glitter box Gerard has the sympathy just hanging on his ass. “He has the appearance and the gun factor. You are watching that Gordon and you can give it a kick, but Gerard is fun and contagious.”
Well, Catherine Keyl thinks very differently about that. When asked what she thought, the Opiniedino answers Business Class: “Oh, yes … ehmm … let me say that the Combi Gordon jollification was a very good one. Let me say it that way. Do you understand what I mean or not?”
Attraction
Yes, host Harry Mens understands that or not? “No.”
Catherine: “Well, that they are very good together and have a huge attraction. They make each other laugh, they make the audience laugh, and at Joling, yes … I thought it … also very long, I have to say.”
Harry: “Yes, I thought so too. I thought it was pretty interesting to get some backgrounds about his former life and where he was born and so on, but I found a very long hour and a half.”
25 minutes
The broadcast duration of Only Joling must be drastically reduced, says Catherine. “Yes, but I think that’s for every program anyway, that doesn’t matter. 25 minutes is more than enough.”
Harry: “I think an hour would be the maximum. I am really curious how he will do that next week.”
Catherine fears that it is not substantive enough: “Yes, that is not easy, I think. I really had the idea … I would have wanted a substantive editor, with that program. I don’t know if it was there, but at least I didn’t notice it.”
What does Goor think?
What does Gordon actually think? Well, he didn’t look. When he was asked about it one day before the broadcast in Shownieuws, he said: “Why does everyone want to know that? You know, I’m not going to look, because I don’t care, but I wish him a lot of success. Isn’t that friendly and fun?”
Private boss Evert Santegoeds then: “I am very curious if the success will remain. People are curious, so the first will really score well and then you have to hold those people, but enough happens. I can announce that.”
New policy
What is the chance that RTL 4 will limit the broadcast duration to prevent Overkill? Small, Wilfred Genee thinks. He says, also in Business Class: “That is the new policy of those commercial channels. They want to fill as much time as possible with one program, because that is cheaper for that channel.”
“That is the idea behind it, but it might be a little more compressed, yes …”
