The Netherlands has a new talk show queen: Hélène Hendriks. While Eva Jinek is busy with dirty diapers at home in Abcoude, her TV career is also in a kind of decline. shitshow ends up: she is being overtaken by a new star in the firmament. What does that show? The latest figures that ratings authority Tina Nijkamp shares with us.

1.058 million

Hélène discussed geopolitics last night with Gerard Joling, Jack van Gelder and Rutger Castricum and that yielded record figures. “It is a very sunny viewing morning for Hélène Hendriks and the De Oranjewinter team. Hélène sets a new viewing figure record: 1.058 million viewers.”

Never before in her career has Hélène scored so well. It has a market share of 25.6 percent in the commercial target group. “The previous record (last Wednesday) was 1.046 million viewers.”

Rutger and Geer

Hélène’s guests contribute to this success, Tina knows. “Is there a Rutger-and-Gerard effect? YES. Gerard Joling is known to be a ratings magnet.”

According to her, the same applies to Rutger. “It is becoming increasingly apparent that Rutger is really doing a bit of a waste on ratings crater NPO 3 and at the edges of the night on NPO 2. In any case, Rutger appears to be very popular with the SBS 6 viewer. As a regular sidekick last week, but also as a guest at the table yesterday.”
