Will the program be able to grow its ratings and improve the show’s content live?
A rain of criticism, less than exciting ratings. It becomes a case”The Talent Catcher“, the new Friday night show created and hosted by Milly Carlucci, co-produced by Rai with the Fremantle production company. A title that seems to recall formats already on air, with the presence in the cast of faces already seen in other programs hosted by Milly Carlucci: from Simona Ventura to Flavio Insinnafrom Wanda Nara to Teo Mammucarifrom Francesco Facchinetti until Sabrina Salerno.
The first episode only got 2,667,000 spectators with 17.2%with Rai1 beaten by Channel 5 thanks to low cost Turkish soaps”Bitter Earth” and “Endless Love“. Carlucci, however, shows satisfaction: “A new program. A real experiment for Raiuno. A result superior to almost all the programs of the week,” he declared in an interview with SuperguidaTV. The presenter focuses on the criticisms received, making very serious accusations: “On the one hand they ask for news on the other As soon as you go out of your way, criticism rains down. My group and I could easily get by in our comfort zone: if we did in Spring Dancing with the Stars or Dancing with the championsthe results would be certain. But we like to try new things and propose them to the public. We did it with The Masked Singer which was a success (the ratings for the show were actually very lukewarm, ed), which involved the younger audience, and we are doing it now by trying to rewrite the rules of the talent show, focusing the lens on talent scouts: The Talent Catchers precisely. Then there’s the matter of organized campaigns like that quite bleak and predictable which was organized before even seeing the program.”
Accusations that he had already launched on social media in a video posted on his Instagram profile: “I must thank all my friends on the web because as always you follow us with passionate attention and I thank even those who made critical comments to us because there is nothing more important than criticism for us who do this work, to understand how we can improve. Then some comments were true, welcome, some very false. We don’t deal with these here, also because we create this wave of negativity – as they say in English, shitstorm – I think it’s a bit sad, aimed at hurting the people who get hit, but in my opinion it hurts those who throw these things here worse. But why? How sad!”.
Unsubstantiated accusations, no names on the alleged instigators, media campaigns organized but unknown to insiders. The program will be able to increase its ratings and improve the contents of the show live? The second episode of “L’Acchiappatalenti” will be broadcast this evening, 17 May 2024, at 9.30pm on Rai1. The arduous sentence goes to the auditors and critics.
