Bertrand on the grill ! This Friday January 5, 2024, the columnist of C to you made his comeback at the helm of a show, six years after hosting the show on W9 OFNI: The information returned, which did not really meet with the expected success. The one who has been a hit for several years on France 5 with his column The ABC alongside Anne-Élisabeth Lemoine, Patrick Cohen, Pierre Lescure, Aurélie Casse, Emilie Tran Nguyen and Mohamed Bouhafsi and Lorrain Sénéchal, received a nice promotion in this year 2024, since France 2 decided to entrust him with the reins of his own second part of the evening show! Baptized Bertrand is not sleepystill produced by Pierre-Antoine Capton who already produces it in C to youthis show received for its premiere Isabelle Nanty, Christophe Willem, Manu Payet and François Berléand.
This Saturday at 9 a.m. sharp, the figures spoke and amused Cyril Hanouna a lot: the show only attracted 813,000 viewersdespite the locomotive Caesar Wagner offered as a bonus, and which was a hit with more than 4.7 million viewers (25.0%). In terms of market shares, Bertrand Chameroy brought together 7.4% of the general public, but only 3% of housewives… Rather confidential scores, which made his ex-employer Cyril Hanouna react, who produced it for four years in Do not touch My TV, between 2012 and 2016 (and a brief failed return in 2018, which lasted only three days). On “On France 2, Bertrand Chameroy was not sleepy, but the viewers were!” Cyril Hanouna cracked a simple amused emoji, letting his satisfaction shine through…
A score which, however, needs to be qualified
In reality, the audience score achieved by Bertrand is not sleepy is far from being catastrophic: last week, scheduled in the same time slot, the first number of the show Paname Generation hosted by Mathieu Madénian did much less, only bringing together 539,000 viewers (5.3%). A week earlier again, a special documentary dedicated to the 30 years of the show Taratata had gathered 600,000 viewers (9.5%). The audience score achieved by Bertrand Chameroy is therefore higher than the box average, and bodes well. The host is being tested throughout the month, and three new, unpublished issues will be offered on January 12, 19 and 26. Next week, Bertrand Chameroy will receive Max Boublil, Michèle Bernier, Jeanne Mas and Agathe Lecaron. At the end of these first four test issues, France 2 will draw up an initial assessment, and will choose whether or not to repeat the experience, with a new order… To be continued!
