Will the success be the same for the second season? The game The Floorpresented by Cyril Féraud, returns for new episodes this Saturday, December 28 and several new features were announced by the host during a meeting with the press, at which I have fun was present. A great success when it was broadcast last year, the serial game, with one hundred candidates, obtained unprecedented scores in prime-time, with a 16.5% audience share.
The Floor: 5,000 euros for the best candidate of the evening
This year, not four, but five evenings will be dedicated to broadcasting the France 2 game! “We have twenty duels, compared to twenty-five last year“, explains Cyril Féraud, adding that a new feature will appear this Saturday evening: the final duel, during which “the candidates who have the largest territory compete to win 5,000 euros, but without any risk of elimination“. Why this new thing? “Last year, we said see you next week and we offered 5,000 euros to the one who had the largest territory, recalls the host. We like merit in all our games, so we have to deserve these 5,000 euros per episode and, during this duel, the two best candidates face off around a surprise theme, pulled out of the hat“.
For viewers, this unprecedented duel “reinforces the intensity of the end of the show and allows the candidates to be more strategic“, confides Cyril Féraud, adding: “They are aiming for 100,000 euros, but also the prize pool that they can win at the end of the bonus. There are many fewer candidates returning to the ground, there is much more risk-taking and adrenaline because, until the last second, we do not know who will win this duel.“.
As for the questions, there are also some new features, with new typologies of duels, which can be musical, from artificial intelligence, with rebuses, anagrams… “The way of playing is evolving enormously and is enriched compared to last year“, concludes Cyril Féraud.
