In the columns of TV Mag this Wednesday, January 8, he made some confidences on this subject. “I am no longer anxious because I know that, in any case, a premiere has the effect of surprise and, afterwards, the audiences drop a little”, he said.

Vincent Lagaf’ does not lose hope that the program will continue to work for a long time. He then sent a tackle to Cyril Hanouna. “He said he didn’t believe in my return, he said we would get 500,000 viewers,” he recalled before adding: “Well, he wasn’t wrong, we got 500,000… but the day after tomorrow at 7 p.m. in a rebroadcast.” Enough to delight Vincent Lagaf’ who later declared: “In the end, we already have 2.3 million viewers.” For a program that is making its big comeback after a long absence, the host is delighted.

Following the first broadcast, 1.8 million people were present for the big return of the program. “I was very, very moved to know that I had given the viewers who have been following me for so many years what they were waiting for”,said Vincent Lagaf’.

Vincent Lagaf’ was impatiently awaiting this first broadcast. However, he confided that he was a little nervous at the idea that it would not please the viewers. “I had a terrible night. Did it work ? Did I do the right thing by doing it ? Won't the audience be disappointed ? Did we do the right thing by using the same Bill, the same decor, the same gifts ?”, he confided. Questions that kept him awake and seeing that the audience responded was quite an achievement for him.

Vincent Lagaf’: a host who loves his job
