Jean-Pierre Pernaut is not saddened by the end of this show he hated
Thus, we learn that he hated to the point The Guignols of Canal +. They "gave him buttons", even specify our colleagues. In his book, the 70-year-old journalist does not go with the back of the spoon concerning the humorous pastille. "I always hated it and had the nerve to say it", he wrote, specifying that the puppet show was only a "very pale copy of the Bébête Show", with a "unhealthy humor". His newscast with astronomical audiences, always very regionally oriented, was often mocked. "No doubt because the authors of these sketches, who had a very curious conception of history, believed that being interested in people and regions was necessarily a sign of far-right activism", Judge Jean-Pierre, who does not seem at all saddened by the disappearance of the puppets, deleted from the air in 2018.
