After the flop of RTL Tonight, Saskia Belleman has signed an agreement with Pauw & De Wit, but why doesn’t she stay with RTL to continue joining Renze Klamer? “Crazy!”
After the failed RTL Tonight adventure, court reporter Saskia Belleman consciously chooses to leave RTL and not stick around to become a regular guest with successor Renze Klamer. She has signed an agreement with Pauw & De Wit, where she will regularly appear in the new season.
Sensitive blow
TV authority Tina Nijkamp finds it very striking. “Transfer news. Very sensitive blow for RTL 4 and Renze. Saskia Belleman is entering into an EXCLUSIVE collaboration with Pauw & De Wit and will also develop a podcast there. Saskia is one of the most sought-after and most popular talk show guests in the Netherlands.”
That weekly podcast was probably the reason for Saskia to choose BnnVara and not stay with RTL. This way she still retains her own platform, now that she has officially retired and said goodbye to De Telegraaf.
‘Why?!’
The visitors of NU.nl are surprised about it. San thinks that RTL could have made a little more effort. “Saskia would have been fine with Renze at the table. Why does RTL let her go? Hopefully they will find another serious candidate.”
Joost understands that Saskia chooses public broadcasting. “Yes, of course. Quality does not belong to Tan or Van Erven Dorens. Belleman also belongs to Pauw & De Wit. The right questions are asked there and further questions are asked.”
New generation
A certain Robin thinks Saskia is too old for this kind of TV appearances. “Although I think Saskia Belleman is a fantastic interpreter, it may be time for a new generation. I understand that she is combining her retirement with the things she has always enjoyed. At the same time, the NPO should also give the new generation a chance.”
What nonsense, a certain Victor objects. “A new generation? Who do you propose with the same capabilities and work experience as Mrs. Belleman?!”
