Rob Geus believes that there should be no more tax money to Bar, the Sophie Hilbrand talk show. He thinks the public broadcaster should intervene. “They have to think seriously.”
There has been a lot of noise about bar lately. There is very little talk about the program and the ratings are not to write home about. It all does not help that Jeroen Pauw has abandoned the program because he does not like the Dutch winters; He is comfortable on the warm Curaçao these months.
Tax
Pretty unexpectedly, the NPO has now announced that Bar Late will return to the tube even after the summer. The Story Now explains his prominent panel: “Should the NPO get tax money in this?”
Rob Geus is in that panel and answers very firmly. He sees no future for the program of Sophie Hilbrand. “No,” he says. “I think they seriously think what they should do with this.”
Pauw & Witteman
You can also make a much better program with a limited budget, Rob thinks. “There is a lot of competition. They have to cut back from The Hague, but the quality must be retained. I sometimes think back to Pauw & Witteman with nostalgia. That was a journalistic good talk show. “
Saskia and Serge also want Sophie to no longer receive tax money for bar late. “No. Not for this talk show. In addition to Eva and EenVandaag, it is quite a lot to have another talk show that contains political topics. ”
Matthijs in it
According to Saskia and Serge, what is the solution? They want Sophie from the late evening. “The only thing they can do is put Matthijs van Nieuwkerk on that location with a crossing of DWDD and Bar. And otherwise they have to pull the plug. “
And am cramer finally? He also wants to close the money tap. “Then they might have to invest that money in a beautiful music documentary. There will be a reason that people don’t look at the talk show. I never look at it. ”
