Mattie Valk again receives fierce criticism of the way in which he uses the voice-over texts for the soap of Gerard Joling. “It’s bad and humorless,” says Shownieuws star Manuel Venderbos.
Rinie van den Elzen is one of the most famous voice-overs in Hilversum. He was also the voice of the reality series that Gerard Joling and Gordon made together. For the current Reallifessoap Only Joling, it was deliberately not chosen for him, of course to avoid the association with the unpopular Gordon. Who is the voice now? Mattie Valk.
To howl
However, Qmusic star Mattie is not exactly appreciated as the voice-over of the Joling soap, because it all sounds rather monotonous. Quite Jim Bakkum sounds. According to radioocolumnist Patrick Kicken it is ‘to cry’ so bad.
And Manuel Venderbos also agrees with that opinion. The presenter of Shownieuws just doesn’t like it. “It can be made more fun. I really like one point of criticism for the makers: Sléchte Voice-over and Sléchte texts. I know that I am now one of the best known and most popular radio DJs bashing, Mattie Valk …”
Think about it
Angela de Jong didn’t even know it was Mattie, she indicates in the AD Media Podcast. “Yes, I had to think for a moment who it was again, he made so much impression on me …”
Manuel thinks that the makers have really made a wrong choice here. “He just doesn’t have any Tongue in Cheekno humor. “
Stepsister
What does Angela actually think of the Joling soap? “If you are watching you will still be unknowingly compare with his false step sister, with Goor. Then I thought: yes, if you see Gerard a plate of cauliflower with his brother in the back garden eating under the roof with a bowl of Hertog-ice cream or see such a room …”
“This is how we all live, right? And it is 100,000 times more recognizable and more sympathetic than that in Dubai you are on a yacht with a couple of h*. See why I think Gerard Joling is still very popular and why we all don’t praise Gordon. It is the authentic sober versus the agility.”
