The show TPMP Will it disappear from television? This is the question that many viewers are asking themselves today. While Arcom recently announced the end of C8’s broadcast frequency on TNT, which will take effect in February 2025, the future of the talk show is still unclear.
Salary cut for TPMP columnists
However, there may (finally) be hope of seeing TPMP remain on our screens next year. In any case, this is what we can read between the lines when discovering the speech Cyril Hanouna gave to his team this Wednesday, September 11, 2024. In Baba’s tribethe host indeed indicated that he was going to put in place a drastic measure for the good of the program.
“Please know that I will have to take budgetary measures. regarding some of you. For those who are closer to retirement“, he initially asked. What is it about?”I will ask them for a small contribution so that I can make ends meet.“
Cyril Hanouna did not really specify the reason for this gesture, “We’ll talk about it later, I’ll tell you why.“, but he warned the gang that budget cuts will come very quickly,”I will have to take measures regarding your fees and it will fall in mid-November.“And to specify further: “It is unfavorable [comme mesure]. We will have to contribute. I will take away from everyone.“
A beneficial measure for the show?
As you will have understood, where the TPMP columnists have long boasted of being extremely well paid for simply sitting around a table, the good life is going to end. Bad news in the short term, but which could be beneficial in the long term. And for good reason, by reducing the budget of the talk show, Cyril Hanouna could facilitate his return to another channel in 2025, especially if this one benefits from less good advertising contracts.
A return that will not happen on France Télévisions despite the open door left by its leader, but which could happen on the side of Cstar or Canal+ in the clear. For the moment, no columnist has yet opposed this future reduction in salaries (the reduced amount was not specified), but this silent acceptance may not last. The reason? Cyril Hanouna revealed (jokingly) that he will not be affected: “The answer is no. [je ne vais pas baisser mon salaire]. I tell you. I’m going to continue to take the blame and I’m not afraid to say it.“
