"The Morning World" with Geula Ibn-Saar (Photo: screenshot, Network 13)
The fatigue was evident on the faces of Gaulah Ibn-Saar and her fellow panelists - Nissim Meshal, Didi Harari and Stav Shapir - in her debut program as the anchor of "The World Morning" on Network 13. They also talked about it.
It's understandable: it's a little after six in the morning, and everyone had of course prepared earlier to show up on time for the new televised parliament.
But it seemed that the general misery also brought out something more, undeciphered to the end.
Perhaps: fatigue from the casual conversation that was about to take place, or: from the expected interaction between all the parties, or: from everything on the agenda.
Because, admittedly, this is the launch of a new edition of the program, there are many smiles and many compliments, but there is nothing interesting about it.
Throughout its three and a half hours, Ibn-Saar and her alternating friends did not provide a single opinion that is not used, expected and worn out from too much use on the events of the time.
How can you not yawn?
Chewy conversations.

Ibn-Saar came to the network after finishing her career at the corporation.
The veteran and respected journalist, who is, what to do, also the wife of a senior politician, was required there not to engage in issues that put her in a conflict of interest, until she got tired of all the flick-flack around it and moved two numbers forward on the remote - to a place where none of this apparently really cares.
She landed on the cover previously sat on by Miri Michaeli, Rotem Israel and Zvika Hadar, and at the terrible length of the program she divided the conversation into two - a political panel that opens the program, and a "lifestyle" panel in the second part.
Here, Ibn-Saar, the wife of the outgoing Minister of Justice, can easily conduct an entire panel on the extreme plan of the incoming Minister, Yariv Levin, to weaken the judicial system.
It is not necessarily the ignoring of the conflict of interest that harms the conversation, which is anyway, as mentioned, recited and expected to be tiring.
It's true that compared to tonight's political panels, everything, really everything, is elite - what's more, the three guests here don't shout at each other and let their friends finish their sentences before blurting out exactly what's expected.
As for the bright spots, the picture is clear.
The political panel takes up most of the time.
After the legal coup plan, a huge volume of air time was devoted to the current feud in Likud between MK David Amsalem and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, as if someone who is not a political animal cares about it at all. The interview of Miki Zohar, the incoming Minister of Culture, dealt with these two issues in detail. Only One thing was forgotten: the subject of his office. Ibn-Saar told him that she would have been happy to talk to him about them as well.

It is worth dwelling on this point, because it illustrates how crooked the agenda of the "Morning World", a program that spans the length of the exile, which supposedly has time to touch on things that are never reached - culture for example - but spoils an especially long screen time for political conversations that are chewed and given to topics Others barely a few minutes, including a stopwatch, for quick calls.

And indeed, Ibn Sa'ar promised one and only one cultural item - should Ivri Leader host the leader of the homophobic party Noam Avi Maoz for a meal at his home.
Politics again, not culture.
It was already at the lifestyle panel stage, which hosted Moti Raif, Tzipi Rafaeli and Irit Rahamim.
Many things can be said about these three, but one thing is certain - unlike their predecessors, they are at least not semi-automatic.
It's amazing that this is also a kind of compliment.
Almost no program of a network is complete without a dose of self-promotion, and this is how Ibn-Saar found herself trying her waist and also interviewing the newly expelled from the survivor, who is, of course, also a friend of hers and her husband's for a long time, a political consultant.
It is not clear what is more ridiculous, seeing the presenter who insists on engaging in politics is required to be humiliated in promoting a reality show, or her insistence on also asking him about the fight in Likud.
Then, at a stage when even the production had already run out of power, there was another stupid conversation about the Hebrew language in which Gil Hovav and another Tiktoker were asked what Boomer and Chocha and Tsikh and Tsakh are.
This perhaps sums up the whole story of the first program of "The Morning World": blowing words into the air does not make a conversation on television valuable.
in small:
A person shouts what he lacks, and Keshet is a franchisee who knows how to shout.
"We are in a different world, it's a different season, it's a different story, something completely different" - these are just some of the attempts of the presenters and commentators of the new season of "Ninja Israel", which was also launched last night, to obscure the fact that it is exactly the same thing.
The major change in the current season is that the participants face their opponents directly at the same time.
According to the quotes above, the main thing that is duplicated is the lack of proportion.
Similar to "The next star", the program is still obsessed with Yuval Shamla, its ninnet, and yesterday, alongside a contestant who was celebrated as his double, he also participated as a commentator.
And indeed, this can actually be celebrated: the former contestant has a charming, modest and intelligent presence, even in this position.
One can hope that, unlike the rest of the things in this show, he will settle for Midoriyama and not get on the nerves of all of us as well.
