“For two years, I saw what was happening with these animals and I don't want to repeat that“, declared Nagui on France Inter in 2020, about cows in Intervilles. So why do you want to restart the program? To revive competition between cities, a concept which gave its name to the program.
Towards a boycott ofIntervilles in the South-West?
Moreover, after removing the tigers from Fort Boyard, France Télévisions will increasingly limit the use of animals. In a new charter adopted, the public audiovisual group even demands greater ethics on the subject from all its commercial partners. But, in the South-West, this return without cows is controversial. The mayors of Dax, Mont-de-Marsans and Bayonne announced last week their refusal to participate in the show. A resident of Landes even launched an online petition against this choice which “denature” Intervilles and makes him lose his “ADN“. “When a host uses the showcase of a program to impose his opinions and distort a program that has marked generations, that seems problematic to me.“, adds the latter.

On the social networkI promise you that next summer, Intervilles will be as you want it with a playful character and its ability to bring viewers together around a popular show“.
