The channel had several problems that ultimately prevented the film scheduled for the evening from being broadcast and left viewers totally surprised.
This Wednesday, November 27, viewers expected to watch “ The First Name » on TMC, but the evening did not go at all as planned. The film, which was very successful when it was released in 2012, was broadcast during the first part of the evening.
Around 10 p.m., viewers had to wait in front of a page of advertising. So far, nothing unusual. But at the time of the restart, it was not the continuation of the film that they had but the beginning again. Internet users quickly reported the problem on X, formerly Twitter. They did not hesitate to gently mock, wondering if they were not “ in a space-time rift » or if TMC had not only bought the first part of the film.
TF1 and the manager also take it for granted when Internet users write: “ So there, on TMC, I was watching “Le Prénom”. The advert arrives (we know), end of the advert and… the film starts again at the very beginning. It’s worse than TF1 ads, it’s a space-time loop » or even « The TMC manager who plays with the buttons to restart the film “Le Prénom” after the commercial… After 45 minutes… Thank you TMC ».
A second commercial break was launched. A long suspense then began to find out whether or not the problem had been resolved. He wasn’t. TMC finally decided to broadcast the film “ Barbaque », with Marina Foïs and Fabrice Éboué, released in 2021. Change of atmosphere.
