The last : The week of the 4 Julies

To mark her last week on the air, the ex-demoness will receive the winning personality from Big Brother Celebrities, Mona from Grenoble, and three collaborators (Tammy Verge, Antoine Vézina and Guillaume Pineault) on Monday, Isabelle Boulay and Lise Dion on Tuesday, and Mariana Mazza, Véronique Claveau, Silvi Tourigny and Serge Denoncourt on Wednesday.

Premiered on Saturday, this show given in November 2020 and December 2021 is a wonderful retrospective of the work of the original Garou. On the program, 14 timeless hits, including Dolores, The wings of an angel, Between two seals, My country, Fu Man Chu, Lindberg (with Louise Forestier), I love you like crazy, I will come back to Montreal And Ordinary. Lasting 75 minutes, the recording made by Louis-Philippe Eno shows how the 78-year-old singer-songwriter (!) pushes — even today — the note with accuracy and power. We also note the abundance of archive images, which embellish this colorful time travel.

The Night Agent
When it hits the target, this 10-episode action thriller is reminiscent Bodyguard, this 2018 British miniseries starring Richard Madden. (Although we could also have talked about the 1992 film with Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner… without the ballads.) More or less believable, the scenario inspired by Matthew Quirk’s novel is nevertheless effective: we follow a junior FBI agent (Gabriel Basso) plunged into the heart of a dangerous plot, which must protect a young woman (Luciane Buchanan) from the people who murdered her aunt and uncle. Released on March 23, the first season has been so successful that a sequel has already been announced for 2024.
