Three major broadcasters at the NPO announced today which programs they are affected by the budget cuts. And actually, only Kassa’s exit is causing a commotion…
BnnVara has decided to stop First Dates, 3 op reis, Wortelboer and Van Rossem, Guinea Pigs, Van Roosmalen & Groenteman and the New Year’s Concert, AvroTros with Draadstaal, Opium op Oerol, the Sunday Morning Concert, Close Up, Now on view! and Man en Kunst and KRO-NCRV with BinnensteBuiten.
Iconic show
The disappearance of Kassa, and to a lesser extent the talk show Van Roosmalen & Groenteman, is particularly surprising. “The other programs were less big ratings hits!”, TV authority Tina Nijkamp explains analysis channel. “At AvroTros, understandable titles are disappearing. Titles with low viewing figures. But Kassa!!!! Iconic show!!!”
All fiction at KRO-NCRV is also disappearing, but Tina doesn’t think that’s a drama either. “Not strange, no ongoing titles and little success in recent years with titles like Arcadia.”
Roosmalen
TV critic Victor Vlam does not think the cancellation of Van Roosmalen & Groenteman is strange. “The final blow for Van Roosmalen & Groenteman was that they went from short seasons of about 6 episodes in 2023 to long seasons of 15 episodes. It became too much of the same. And I say that as a loyal viewer,” he writes. X.
These gentlemen themselves are combative, because they are persistent The Telegraph know that they just want to continue, if necessary at another broadcaster. “The viewing figures for NPO 3 are so high, so who knows, maybe another broadcaster will want it,” says Marcel. Tina can imagine that: “It is simply BY FAR best-scoring program of NPO 3 week after week.”
Misunderstanding
The disappearance of Kassa in particular causes misunderstanding among visitors NU.nlthe largest news response platform in our country. “It is particularly bad that an important consumer program such as Kassa would disappear. Fortunately, I am well informed about consumer law. But unfortunately, having the right does not always mean getting the right,” says Reinier.
“Last year we experienced that a wellness discount card was wrongly declared invalid. But just mentioning Kassa turned out to be enough to make it valid again.”
Institute
Kiske agrees. “The only program that I watched regularly/often is Kassa. Almost an institution. The other programs that are disappearing have never interested me.”
And Wubby: “A quality program like Kassa is being taken off the air. Shame! If cuts have to be made, then cut sports broadcasts. Why invest in a World Cup football, which is averse to corruption and is organized by a country where Trump is in power?”
ANGRY and Emma
Meindert tips BnnVara where they can make better savings. “I would have preferred BOOS and carrot farmer to cut costs. I think the box office was the only thing I watched from BNNVARA, but perhaps that program would suit another broadcaster better.”
The 3 Op Reis exit is especially justified, says Larry. “Too bad about Kassa, that was useful. But I think the financing of candy trips should have been canceled years ago. And why Blauw Bloed is only cut by half is a mystery to me. No need for advertising for the monarchy. They already cost more than enough!”
