The telecrochet de la Une ended earlier than expected on Saturday evening. The chain wants to save time before its direct. Same thing for his


" It's already over! From here we hear the reaction of fans of "The Voice" on Saturday evening. The end credits surprised its 5.1 million viewers by falling at 10:30 p.m. instead of 11:30 p.m. To put an end to all criticism and fooling around on social networks, Nikos Aliagas confirmed in a tweet that “the show was shorter. To continue offering new numbers for as long as possible, TF1 and ITV Studios (Editor's note: who produces the program) did not opt ​​for the reruns solution and decided to reduce the duration of the program. "

The battles for "The Voice" were to end on the evening of March 21, they will end on the 28th. And there will then be four "KO" broadcasts (note: new selection step launched last year) instead of two before the semi-final and the final, which will be live. The final stage was to take place on April 18, it is postponed to May 9. "Not knowing how long the health crisis and confinement will last, we are trying to hold out as long as possible with the recorded programs," we explain at TF1. "The Voice" was to last 14 weeks this year instead of the usual 18. We come back to 18. ”

The mode of broadcast of the disturbed series

The re-editing of the programs already recorded is already complicated, with the confinement of the teams. But how will the direct be managed? With audience? Without an audience? “We don't know yet, we admit at TF1. Several hypotheses are considered but we advance as for the rest day to day, according to government directives. We adapt, we tailor-make, in all areas, from fiction to information. Because there is a big appetite of the French for information. We no longer communicate our audiences, out of decency, but the news on Saturday evening was watched by 9.2 million viewers! "

To keep the maximum number of new episodes, while all the filming and most of the editing benches are stopped, TF1 has also changed the mode of broadcasting of several series. Thus, it broadcast a single new episode of the new season of the "Red Bracelets" on March 16 instead of two, ditto for the new "Profiling" with Shy'm on the 19th. "We didn't need to do Wednesday 18 with Grey's Anatomy , says TF1, because we have a large stock of new releases. But we think about it for Koh-Lanta , which is supposed to stop on May 15. It's very complicated to divide the episodes. But that of the ambassadors, where there are two eliminations, could be cut in half. "
