Good morning Finland in the program Aki to Linnahti a TV host was seen as a guest on Sunday Katja Ståhl. During the interview, it was brought up Crazy bunch – a talk show that was made in the late 90s. It starred alongside Katja Ståhl Katariina Souri i.e. then Kata Kärkkäinen and Marika Makaroff.
– When we talk about the end of the year, did it have to be horribly wild then? You never market a talk show so that it’s wild, Linnanahde asks.
In Ståhl’s opinion, the TV program was created as a continuation of the shudder Good bad and ugly for the program.
– It was really a game-changer, when there were really wild people there, Katja Ståhl said, and continued talking about the 90s.
– Yes, then it was meaningful to shudder. We were thrilled just by the fact that Kata Kärkkäinen was there.
– He had Playboy publicity in the background, said Linnanahde.
– And he wasn’t a TV presenter anyway, so it was like “huh huh, just watch it”, continued Katja Ståhl.
After that, the two continued the conversation by talking about the Elämäni biisi program hosted by Ståhl and loved by the viewers.
Katariina Souri: “Flirting”
The conversation on Huomenta Suomi upset Katariina Souri, who commented on it in her public Facebook post. Iltalehti caught up with Souri to comment on the publication and the discussion about him on television.
– That series was filmed ten years after Playboy, and I had done a hell of a lot as a presenter. When I was 24–25 years old, I wrote a prime time drama series for a big channel, I think it’s a tougher merit than Playboy, he says to Iltalehte.
Souri recalls that at that time he wrote for MTV3’s prime time Champagne and marshmallows series and Under the star lamp – series and that he has hosted as a profession both on TV and outside of it.
– I can’t bear to belittle any more. Let Playboy bring it up, but it can also be talked about objectively as part of a larger whole. Their point of view is that the Playboy girl jumped to become a presenter – yes, this kind of boils over! This kind of tone of conversation no longer belongs at this time, he commented.
Iltalehti also reached Katja Ståhl and Aki Linnanahti, who did not want to comment on the matter.
