the “TPMP” set reacts to the new numbering of TNT channels

“It often shakes, but now it’s going to shake because we had the new numbering of the Arcom”announces from the first minutes of his show Cyril Hanouna, this Monday, January 13.

Indeed, the audiovisual policeman communicated earlier today the new distribution of channels. France 4, which occupied number 14, regains channel 4. A meteoric rise, a guarantee of visibility. Canal 12, released by NRJ 12, is for the children's channel Gulli. Finally, the news channels are grouped together. BFMTV, CNews, LCI and Franceinfo will respectively inherit numbers 13, 14, 15 and 16. The new TNT channels, CMI TV and OFTV will arrive from September 1 on channel 18 and channel 19.

Instead of C8, viewers will be able to watch The Parliamentary Channel. For Emmanuel Kessler, CEO of LCP-National Assembly, the arrival of parliamentary channels on 8 is “a very strong republican gesture”. “It’s two rooms, two atmospheres”estimates columnist Thomas Guénolé this evening in “Touche pas à mon poste”.

Black screen until June 6

An analysis shared by Cyril Hanouna which recalls that for several months, until the announced withdrawal of the Canal+ group, the 8 and the 12 will display a black screen. To avoid creating confusion among viewers, the numbering changes will take place all at once, on June 6, 2025. “I wonder if they won’t attract more audiences with the black screen than with their programs”attacks Cyril Hanouna before insisting: “It’s not a joke, I really think so”.

During the press conference, Roch-Olivier Maistre, the president of Arcom, assured: “ Public interest has been our only guide ». A statement which did not convince the C8 troublemaker. “In the first ten channels, you already have six public channels”remarks Cyril Hanouna. “They don’t even hide anymore, they do what they want. The French, they don’t give a damn”he concludes.
