While Masterchef ends on September 27, Agathe Lecaron took stock of this first season on France 2. The host did not use the language of wood.
For France Télévisions, failure is complicated. When deciding to relaunch Masterchef a few weeks ago, the group had high expectations. Unfortunately for France 2, viewers are not at the rendezvous of the amateur culinary competition. The show, for example, attracted only 1.8 million viewers for its first episode, and 1.5 million for the second. Faced with these disappointing audiences and its lost bet against Mask Singer, still very strong on TF1, France 2 took a big decision: that of bringing forward the date of the final. While France Télévisions had planned a season of Masterchef which was to take place over 8 episodes, only six will be broadcast and the final will take place on September 27..
Guest of Franceinfo this Tuesday, September 20, Agathe Lecaron returned without language of wood on the failure of Masterchef. “I have several theories. Maybe it was programmed a little too early. Maybe people didn’t want to look at something, so warmly, inside. It is perhaps more of a fall program, analyzed the host of France Télévisions. We had some tough competition. It is true that we had no luck, because Mask Singer, the juggernaut of TF1, even stronger than The Voice, fell in front. Defeatist, Agathe Lecaron can only face the facts. “I admit that I was happy, I thought to myself that there would not be Koh-Lanta”, she added on the set of Franceinfo.
Agathe Lecaron: “The show’s audience is much younger”
“And my husband (François Pellissier, who is the deputy general manager of TF1, editor’s note.) said to me this summer in the Arcachon basin: ‘yes, finally, that does not mean that there will be no other brand…’, in a very small voice, she remembered. He made me realize that there would be a big thing in front and I started to do an organ descent. So I think that didn’t help. There were football matches… a lot of things.” In the columns of Télé Star, Agathe Lecaron wanted to be proud of this television return. “Achieving this score in this competitive context, when we are not yet in the heart of the events, it’s pretty goodtold us the host. The audience for the show is much younger than the average for the box, and the women have followed us.”
