Last night, a brave woman named Lucy, a total of 29 years old, entered the closed men's club of the trivia show hosts, and answered the so-called trivia question: "How is it that only at the end of 2021, did Israeli television find one?"
Lucy Job, the presenter of the new season of "The Pursuit", not only shattered last night the puzzling male glass ceiling created by Erez Tal, Zvika Hadar, Avri Gilad and other men, she did it successfully by bringing a simple "voice" to the genre, instead Self-importance and pompous guidance.
On the way, she also entered at the height of style the non-small shoes left behind by Ido Rosenblum, such large clown shoes in exaggeration.
When it was announced on behalf of the corporation that they were looking for a talent for the next season from the house that would be identified with the channel, instead of Ido Rosenblum who answered "I do" for every offer on Keshet 12, the name Lucy Job immediately appeared. Sparkling of "Dancing with the Stars").
However, there was also concern that she would not be able to maintain the light-hearted but nerdy formula that works so well in "The Pursuit."
Rosenblum took the "chase" to the amusing places.
He took a format that could easily have settled into a drowsy half-hour of trivia nerd, and made it a fun show to watch.
It was clear that he was coming to have fun, to punch around the heavy questions and get down on the chasers - Itai Herman and Michal Sharon.
Lucy does not have the motivation that Rosenblum has to "lift off the floor" any option for a joke or laughs in the studio - but she brings something that is only hers: feminine intelligence and endless grace.
In a world where TV franchises put up trivia shows on a glacier and send them to their deaths, the "chase" of here 11 maintains stability and a fairly loyal audience.
For those who do not understand why, this happens mainly because of maintaining the fashionable concept that came back to us when we brought that couple back from Turkey - "without noise and ringing".
It is a solid format, with no flashy studios, no suitcases of money and no general departure from proportions.
But above all it has a cracking of the basic principle: the more questions in the show, and in the average episode of "The Chase" the number is around 150 - the viewer at home gets a kind of interactive experience, where he can answer questions from the couch and announce in the middle of the living room Do not know it ?! ".

It's already the sixth season that the chase is a refuge for prime-time viewers of a different kind, such as reality shows, singing and cooking, pursuing a chase of empty content or of violent discourse on competing channels.
Viewers who should not tolerate the cries of "Who is this? Who is this? Who is this?"
And to find out that in the end it is Maor Buzaglo inside the carburetor costume - and they prefer the "who is it" to be the inventor of penicillin or Hannah Szenes.
Here 11 understand that a show that managed to survive six seasons without noise and ringing must also resume beyond the presentation, and perhaps to compensate a little for the reduction of the talent index in the program, members of the band Tislam, Nadav Abkasis, Idan Alterman, Dori Ben Zeev, Prof. Itamar Grotto, Monday Klein, journalist Haim Levinson and another journalist victim - Anat Kam.
Based on the first plan, Itai Herman (the Chaser) is still trying to recover from the breakup of Rosenblum, who picked him up at every opportunity for landings and created with him an evil team that laughs all the way to the contestants' bank.
It will be interesting to see if such a collaboration will also be for Lucy Job with Michal Sharon.
