Although he has a career as an actor, in the theater as well as on TF1 in the series “Léo Matteï, Minors’ Brigade”Jean-Luc Reichmann is above all a great TV host with a well-established career for almost 30 years thanks to “WATCH YOUR STEP”, which became “Les 12 coups de midi”. And this big midday event is such a hit that its candidates can even be found on other channels now! This is what the main interested party noticed, this December 20, 2023, on Europe 1.
“Everyone steals them from us!”
Guest of the show “Culture Media“, Nathalie Lecoultre’s husband even quipped: “We still have the masterclass of all the candidates. So, whether we like it or not, everyone is snatching them up and everyone is stealing them from us!” Impossible not to see this as a swipe at Laurent Ruquier, who hired Paul El Kharrat, his former champion with 153 participations, nicknamed Wiki Paul, who wrote several books and became a columnist for “Big heads“, on RTLsince its passage in 2019.
We also think of Émilie and Yaël, who made themselves known in the same show, and who we have since seen in “Who can we beat?”, the entertainment hosted by Eric Antoine, on M6. Regarding these elders, Jean-Luc Reichmann assures: “Our pride a little […] it’s about discovering talents. So, we’re going to make selections all over France, but we are talent scouts and afterward, they hold hearings on our candidates, the others. I won’t name anyone, but you can see who I’m talking about.”
Of the “audience cards” thanks to him
It must be said that candidates still have the right to look elsewhere, after having gone through the box “12 strokes of noon”. A fine player, Jean-Luc Reichmann admits: “As much as I may have been annoyed by two or three little things, I’m not at all annoyed now.” Regarding competing channels, the TF1 star adds regarding their good audiences : “Big hits even! No, no, I’m quite happy because I’m more of a talent scout and very happy to be.” Let it be said!
