This Friday, June 28, 2024 was a great day for “Les 12 coups de midi”! Indeed, the TF1 show presented by Jean-Luc Reichmann celebrated its 14th anniversary on the first channel. For the occasion, the host was particularly moved, since it was also the birthday of his father, who died in 2016.

“He’s trying to get back first place for best host”
If Emilien, the young master of the midday masters, at the head of a prize pool climbing to more than a million euros, once again emerged as the winner of this new round, for the 277th time, Jean-Luc Reichmann seemed to be on another planet. Very moved for the fourteenth anniversary of “12 coups de midi”, the host first welcomed the viewers with a touching speech. “It was my dad’s birthday when we started, so I’m very happy and very proud” he declared. A few minutes later, Jean-Luc Reichmann led the different phases of the game against the candidates who came to challenge Emilien: Pauline, Rosemonde and Alexandre.
And it was the latter, a Paris firefighter, who found himself in the final. The opportunity for him to pay tribute to Jean-Luc Reichmann: “You are a daily meeting for all the firefighters I know. The show that we all watch, at lunchtime, when we have lunch while waiting for interventions . You are a bit of a firefighter too, with us, every day.” Words that touched the host’s heart: “I’m going to make an intimate confession to you, here in front of everyone, but yes, Alexandre: I love firefighters!” Whereupon he continued with the resumption of the game. But when he asked Emilien a question, Jean-Luc Reichmann suddenly burst into laughter! “Excuse me, excuse me! I don’t know why I laughed” he chuckled. Then, throughout the face-to-face between Emilien and Alexandre, the host increased the frantic encouragement to the two candidates, such as “Pull yourself together”, “Don’t lose concentration!”, “Alex, don’t give up , firefighters never let go of the ramp!”
Little phrases perceived by Internet users as destabilizing for the candidates of “12 coups de midi”. Even more: on X, in general, Jean-Luc Reichmann’s attitude has greatly annoyed many fans of the show. For them, the host would have “overdone it” a little, while others do not understand the object of his laughter…
