Is it really the intention that we look at Johnny de Mol all summer while the recovering Hélène Hendriks is at home longer than expected? “Wilfred Genee just wants!”
It does not have the VI feeling at all: the Hélène Hendriks-free broadcasts of the Oranjezomer. As a substitute, Johnny de Mol can work well, but otherwise he mainly breathes the Gooise life: you won’t get further away from the VI-viewer. The crazy thing is: Wilfred Genee was willing to take over the show for a few weeks during the recovery from Hélène: a golden move.
Finger up
Ad-Opiniediva Angela de Jong had taken care of that guide to Wilfred with both hands. “I was actually surprised to hear that Wilfred Genee had raised his finger to continue for a few weeks now that Hélène has been eliminated, and that they have not said yes to that,” she says in the AD Media Podcast.
Really incomprehensible, she thinks so. “I think that is really a missed opportunity, because I think that is the most quiet landing you can have with you.”
Flowing transition
Shownieuws face Manuel Venderbos would have found that better. “Yes, then you have a kind of smooth transition.”
Media journalist Gudo Tienhooven: “You would like that as a channel, would you almost think that Johnny de Mol’s father is also behind somewhere.”
Has John de Mol stopped this to please his son Johnny? Can well, says Angela. “Well, it feels very bad if: of course someone just has to be rehabilitated after his debacle at HLF8. Well, that doesn’t really work yet.”
“It’s not Johan”
Angela misses Hélène very much. “The one who can still make it fun is Hélène and a bit with the chemistry with Rutger. But yes, it was a bit now …” Well, Rutger, Wilders said something. ” Well, Rutger was allowed to say a reference again.
Gudo: “But the problem was mainly with Johnny de Mol, right? Let’s be honest.”
Angela: “I said that. Yes, at least Hélène still has the gun factor. He makes it fun to watch with her sparkling charm.”
List
Manuel believes that Johnny presents very much Staccato. “Yes, I think she can also connect the totally different topics to each other in one way or another, and that it felt more with Johnny like:” I have to finish this list. “
Gudo: “I thought it was very robotic and also very cringe. So looking for a joke. And then he joked, and then it wasn’t fun at all. Oops, oops, oops, oops.”
Thin
Angela believes that Johnny is ruined the VI feeling. “I got a lot of déjà vu’s with HLF8. I think that was very nice for him to make, with all his friends in the studio, but for the viewer you really had no idea what you were doing there.”
Gudo: “Certainly in this format, as a presenter you really have to be very smart and be able to improvise. Johnny de Mol simply can’t. He really has some talents, but not the spontaneous creativity to force that dynamic.”
Angela: “No, but it is also a bit of the journalism background he doesn’t have.”
Other image
Tina Nijkamp does not find Johnny a good choice either. She says in the podcast The Media Week: “Of course he has a very different image than the men of VI. Look, Hélène has exactly the same image. I think her is very regional and I think Johnny de Mol is very Randstad.”
Co-host Mark Koster: “Johnny is just part of Hilversum.”
Tina: “Yes, exactly. I think that is true. He is the Gooi. Goois.”
Why not Wilfred?
Tina would also have chosen Wilfred. Why SBS 6 hasn’t done that now? “Of course he wanted to jump in for Hélène, but I also think SBS thought: yes, we now give someone else a chance, for example Johnny in this case. For the same money, Dyantha Brooks could of course have done very well.”
“It is also a way to also look at other people for the future. So I certainly don’t think it is Wilfred Genee itself, but that SBS 6 has thought: yes, we are now also going to ensure that people are not overdoors with the same presenter, that we are now going to give other people a chance.”
Bad choice
Is there anyone else who finds Johnny a bad choice? Yes, Rob Goossens, the Mediakenner of RTL Boulevard. “As a viewer, you unfortunately do not notice that Johnny has already earned his stripes as a talk show host. The speed was hard to find during his first broadcast.”
He continues on the RTL Boulevard site: “Only the inconvenience of a sponsored section could apparently encourage Johnny to do his best for some atmosphere. But the video in which he talks a ride over the Safaripark with Schunnig jokes felt rather uncomfortable than cozy.”
