Chantal Janzen has taken a plastic standing table to the RTL Tonight studio to prove that a round table is really better for the program. “How long do you want to do it that way?!”
It seems that there is a big change at RTL Tonight, because Studiogast Chantal Janzen had prepared a playful action yesterday. The presenter had taken a standing table to prove that a round table would really work better for the program. And that is of course the prelude to a new studio setting.
“It didn’t work out”
Everything starts when Albert Verlinde is deemed to discuss the TV hit and TV-flop of the month. About the flop: “Of course a program was very large, with campaigns and everything around it and photos of people who looked nice and stuff. Anyway, to go all the way to Gordon, we’re not going to do that,” he jokes.
He continues in RTL Tonight: “It just didn’t work out that morning show, but we did not succeed either. Hey. We are working hard on it. It would be very strange if I stop here at the top and flop of the month- and I call myself an entertainment and media expert- and I keep imagining outside.”
Deep respect
Albert this week on the radio honestly but somewhat on -collegial on RTL Tonight. He is doing well now: “I can only say that I really have deep respect for anyone who cooperates in this program and is trying to make the best of it every night. We are all convinced that we are going to come on top.”
Studiogast Chantal Janzen then starts over the desk: “I’m sitting here for the first time. You can easily just fill another hole here or something? That you put a table again? I think it is too, I have to say … then I am so talking to you and then I have to make it (look otherwise, ed.) … if you do this … do we have a table?”
Standing table
It soon turns out that this is prepared with Chantal. “Is there a table? I’m going to show it. I brought it!”, She says, after which she fills the ‘hole’ in the studio with the table. “Of course it is all a joke, it is good to try something, but at some point: I don’t know how long you want to do this?”
She continues: “Now you can look at each other, but I still have the Shownieuws feeling here.”
Albert: “Of course it is nice that the channel tries something else. I started my career on TV with a desk, namely at Boulevard, and that is quite nice.”
Five years
Host Humberto Tan thinks that only some time is needed. “Let’s not forget that the first two months of Late Night were not to write home about it. That took two months before it started to fly a bit. In the end it took five years and you never know if a program will fly.”
Chantal thinks that the helm has to change: “You have to try something and then you sometimes have to think: I try it for a while and if it really doesn’t work … It always takes a lot of courage to throw something new in it.”
Sign on the wall
This is a clear announcement that something will change, according to TV authority Tina Nijkamp. “YES! It was one set-up Maybe. Who knows, “she writes on her analysis canal.
She concludes: “Hopefully Sunday, otherwise Monday or week after. Chantal has proven a big service tonight Tonight.”
