Soundos El Ahmadi continues to scare TV viewers away: ‘These are horror figures’

Soundos El Ahmadi continues to fail as the face of the talent show Ik Ga Stuk. The program in which new comedy talent is sought still scores poorly. “These are horror figures.”

The NPO 3 show Ik Ga Stuk, which is presented by Stefano Keizers and in which Soundos El Ahmadi is the face of the jury, has been viewed very poorly since the first episode at the end of August. Yesterday the program did not get further than 77 thousand viewers and a market share of only 1.5 percent.

Horror figures for Soundos

The bad news is that the Soundos show is on the menu of the Sunday evening of NPO 3 until mid-October, just like the flops that surround the program: the drama series Sihame and the Tim Hofman show Pak De Macht. Yesterday, 102 thousand (2 percent) and 126 thousand viewers (3 percent) watched it, respectively.

Viewing figure expert Tina Nijkamp finds it very painful. “The big loser of Sunday has been NPO 3 for four weeks in a row. Especially the talent show Ik Ga Stuk scores horror figures, but the drama series Sihame hardly scores better. With 102 thousand viewers, it costs about two euros per viewer. An episode of a drama series costs at least two hundred thousand.”

Tim Hofman disappoints

And where Tim Hofman is a hit on YouTube, he disappoints heavily on television. Are those 126 thousand all in the perfect target group? No, neither. “Young people don’t watch either. In the target group 20 to 54 years, none of these programs has a market share of more than 5 percent. So really bad numbers for NPO 3. Unfortunately.”

What did people look at? Especially to Miljoenenjacht on SBS 6, good for a score of almost 1.4 million viewers (27 percent). Immediately afterwards, Undercover in the Netherlands had 794 thousand (18 percent) left.

Queen Elizabeth

NPO 1 offered the most viewed alternative with Elizabeth: The Unseen Queen, because more than 1 million people (19 percent) watched it. Jeroen Pauws Nederland is Vol then had 841 thousand (22 percent) left. “Unfortunately, in the target group 20 to 54 years, it still scores far too little for NPO 1: 9.2 percent. ah. Those are Matthijs Goes Door figures,” says Tina.

RTL 4 takes bronze with 877 thousand viewers (17 percent) for Weet Ik Veel. It is striking that this program is doing better in the target group than Miljoenenjacht. “In the target group, Weet Ik Veel is the winner: 23.1 vs. 22.3 percent market share.”
