Yaron Ilan's new interview program on Channel 24 is called "Opening Everything", but apart from showering compliments on the interviewees, they do not open anything there
No one came to ask difficult questions.

Yaron Ilan is a TV host who is identified with the genre Mediterranean.
From 1997, when he first directed "Mint Smell" on television, and to this day, Ilan has directed dozens of TV and radio programs, personal interviews, the reality show "Eyal Golan reads to you", transparent studios and more.
Channel 24 has been its home channel in recent years, where it has hosted a variety of programs.
This time he got a one-on-one interview program with singers.
The studio is small and intimate and Ilan sits comfortably in front of his interviewees and gives them a good feeling.
He started the first program with Eyal Golan, and did not stop showering compliments on him in the first few minutes.
He later shared a good revelation that he is represented at Eyal's agency and that they are friends, but it seems that the friendship between them brought out good and honest things from Golan, for example about the show at the beginning of the road he got in an old Fiat 127, and did not believe him to be the singer.
I also interview Louis Ali, Agam Bohbot, Itai Levy and others Ilan with a lot of empathy and offer a sympathetic ear.
Liron Ilan has a very clear advantage - he does not need a researcher in the production because he knows his interviewees well.
He has been a part of this industry for years, so all the interviews with him are relaxed and flowing.
But this is also his problem: his empathetic attitude and the fact that he is "part of the industry" make him ask questions that are very comfortable for his interviewees and will always bring them out well.
Alternatively, he is careful not to touch on sensitive or explosive issues.
What is the chance that he would ask Eyal Golan about one of the affair linked to his name or even about the conflict with his former partner Bnei Peretz?
After all, technically Golan is the one who represents Ilan, and no one comes here to annoy anyone or ask difficult questions.
After all, in a day or two he will have to see him in the office.
He also reveals with the other interviewees during an interview how well he knows them: he remembers Lake Bohbot as a child and knows her parents, he remembers Itai Levy a moment before he broke out, and he gambled on Louis Ali that he would succeed.
But as with Golan, he also tries to get them out well and ask comfortable questions.
The program has corners, for example the Instagram corner, where the guest pulls out his cell phone and chooses a picture that the two are talking about.
In general, the topic of social networks is very present in all the interviews, and it is surprising to discover the attitude of each of the interviewees towards Instagram.
At the end there is a questionnaire of 24 short questions, some childish - for example, what profession did you hate to learn, and some completely stupid, like "what item of clothing do you always have in your suitcase".
Even Ilan himself admitted that he did not understand why such a question appeared to him in the questions.
For this, by the way, there is editing in the program, and you can just cut, and save yourself the embarrassment.
"We open everything with Yaron Ilan" is everything except a program where you open everything.
If we were already opening everything up, then "Flattering with Yaron Ilan" could have been a more appropriate name for the program.
