Because I sometimes watch TV, is sometimes asked about the future of television. Now it is my job to discuss the television last night and not the day after tomorrow, but you do not have to look ahead. No seer The future belongs to the talk show.

Not to splendor series like Mad Men, Borgen. No addict can be in this multimedia times yet VARA his dose of methadone prescribing only 50 minutes per week, while the drugs are freely available for the mere price of a single autokraak. If the junk they had not already been stolen in a dark alley on the Internet.

What remains is live. The here and now, directly delivered at home. Netflix or not: we yearn for a shared experience. The talk show is the answer. As old as the road to William Duys but indestructible. Especially live, when the opportunity is greatest for guests flying off the road without a director can intervene. A good talk show is like a Formula I race.

Jan Mulder at Barend & Van Dorp a VVD politician under the sun scolded, Theo Maassen that the nude photos of ‘focus junk’ Patricia Skating on the Playboy feed for his necrophiliac friend is – what wonderful to be indignant to do .

Cheap and priceless
The talk show is cheap and priceless at the same time. Table, chairs, a silent actress as a side table – ready. Television will soon turn into a big chat room. Mainly on television, because if there is anything like television speaks, it is on television, with someone from television.

And that affects, for there is no celebrity who is not in an interview his / her wildest dream let slip: a talk show. We can all talk, is the idea. Toggle years, and Van den Brink geaasd on the spot of Pauw & Witteman. Now the loot is inside, they go on vacation and allow their spotlights on, among others Antoine Bodar, Wouter Bos, Helga van Leur and Leontien van Moorsel.

What is yet to come? The news headlines of recent times give a definite answer. Sylvana Simons dreams of a talk show, she announced in an interview. Working title: Sylvana speaks

.

‘Gordon wants own talkshow’ – Under the Gordol. Unfortunately, when it threatened to get it, the recordings ‘postponed’. His guests could not.

Angela Groothuizen wants a talk show about sex. We already knew: Sex with Angela

‘Babette van Veen will own talk show.’. Chat with Babette. Catherine Keyl: talk show. Keyl chats. Late last year: Tanja Jess, yes. Talking to Tanja.

Nice and easy
‘Johnny de Mol working on talk show’. ‘MAX-boss Jan Slagter want talkshow with Mart Smeets and Kees Jansma. The country’s most famous unemployed, media buddy Bram Moszkowicz, preys on a talk show. Like Peter R. de Vries – seemed ‘easy going’. Maybe someone should explain to them that the essence of a talk show mainly consists of listening. To others, of course.

Years also Linda de Mol walk angling. Last month we saw the result: Dicks with Linda. Light and nice long: it half hours, and 23 inches. Meanwhile Eva Jinek runs them warm for an hour a day and rejoice Humberto Tan on a late night on Twitter all Humberto Tan & baptized.

so.

Dreams enough But what took the train newspaper Spits? Piet Paulusma does NOT need to own talk show. A shameless confession. He would “of course be ‘, but he had” simply not a compulsion. “

Fascinating. A weatherman who do not want to talk show. There will be much talked about. In a talk show.
