Seven years after the only season of Your beautiful programhosts Véronique Cloutier and Jean-Sébastien Girard come together in a new show: I was waiting for youbilled as “a big hug to our popular culture” from the 1960s to the early 2000s.
Radio-Canada announced Thursday the title and some details of this new show, which will be presented in 2024-2025 in the VERO.TV section of ICI TOU.TV EXTRA and subsequently on ICI TÉLÉ.
Eight one-hour shows are planned, filmed in an “intimate and relaxed atmosphere”, and in which the two hosts and three guests will talk together about their memories of the artistic world. Each episode will have its theme and will highlight a notable personality, but today less present in the media.
“ I was waiting for you is ultimately intended to be a big hug to our popular culture, a most entertaining event, punctuated with tender or ironic nods to bygone fashions,” writes Radio-Canada in a press release.
Véronique Cloutier and Jean-Sébastien Girard invite the public to register to attend the recording of the show, which will begin soon at Espace Saint-Denis. The original idea for the show was developed by Jean-Sébastien Girard and Charles-Alexandre Théorêt in collaboration with Productions KOTV inc., who are responsible for its production.
Remember that in 2017, Véronique Cloutier made a return to television by presenting live Your beautiful program alongside Jean-Sébastien Girard. The variety show, filmed live, did not garner the expected ratings. It only lasted one season.
