It’s starting to look more and more like Renze Klamer isn’t such a huge TV promise after all. His current talk show on RTL 4 is mainly more of the same, very much neither meat nor fish. With A stars like Eva Jinek, the channel is already struggling to excel in the late evening, let alone with this former EO presenter.

Shabby

Angela de Jong is well done with it. The television tyrant writes in it today AD a ruthless, but justified column about his talk show Renze op Zondag. She feels that the presenter has ‘given up’.

It started badly yesterday, Angela thinks. She points to the ‘lazy’ account of a trip Renze and Barrie Stevens made to London in connection with the coronation of Charles. “It was nothing, other than shabby imagery.”

All time low

However, Valerio Zeno is the absolute low point of Renze’s show, thinks Angela. According to her, this new sidekick is ‘even less funny than the week before’. This time he had brought along an infantile magician duo.

Penetrating, Angela thinks. “I really have no idea why the editors at Renze decided that this parody of a presenter, discarded by BNN years ago, deserves a spot on national TV again.”

“Fire him!”

Does Angela think Valerio should be out? Yes. She calls it a ‘great mystery’ why they ‘didn’t throw him out immediately after two attempts’.

Yet Renze also disqualifies himself, Angela thinks, especially during his interview with Igone de Jongh. She is the ex of the controversial Thijs Römer and, according to her, Renze only dared to ask ‘one cowardly question’, namely whether she wanted to say something about it herself. No, she didn’t want that. “Even Khalid Kasem would be ashamed of it by now.”

TV off

Angela immediately turned off the TV, she writes. In her own words, she cannot bear to see how far Renze has sunk after his switch to the commercial sector. “Who saves him?”
