After the audience success achieved by Bigdil, which made its comeback on television last week, Vincent Lagaf' savored this success and took the opportunity to send a little dig at… TF1.
He succeeded in his bet!
After finally accepting the proposal from the RMC Story channel, which wanted to resurrect Bigdil from its ashes, Vincent Lagaf' did not shy away from his pleasure after the success of the show. The big return of the cult game show from the end of the 90s indeed achieved a huge audience, bringing together 1.8 million viewers (with a peak of 2 million), on Thursday January 2, 2024. A record for the chain of the group chaired by Nicolas Bellet de Tavernost.

Big return of Bigdil: Vincent Lagaf' savors his success and tackles TF1
The day after the broadcast of the show, Vincent Lagaf' expressed his happiness on BFM TV.
“I'm very happy, I'm very happy, I'm very tired because I slept very badly last night, due to the stress and the questions that are working, that are nagging: 'Did we do well? Should we have gone back? Will it be well received?” etc… And then it's true that this morning, at 9 a.m., when Stéphane Sallé de Chou called me and told me the good news, it was more than pleasant” (Vincent Lagaf’)
Obviously happy with his reunion with an audience, which has always remained loyal to him, the 65-year-old host took the opportunity to settle scores with TF1, which had somewhat sidelined him after the end of “Just Price », the last show he presented on television, between 2009 and 2015.
« First of all, if you allow me, I would really like to dedicate this success to Fabrice Bailly, the broadcast director of TF1 “, he declared, not without irony.
It must be said that few would have bet on the success of the show, starting with Cyril Hanouna who predicted a bitter failure for Vincent Lagaf'. The C8 host even went so far as to say that the audience would not exceed 500,000 spectators. However, the facts proved him wrong
Rapper Booba, never shy of barbs when it comes to Cyril Hanouna, was quick to criticize the PAF troublemaker by making fun of him on the social network screenshot below.
