After Julie Snyder and Cœur de Pirate, it’s Christine Beaulieu’s turn to start the renovations in front of the cameras.
Will the full directory of the Union des artistes have its own renovation exhibition?
A good load
We already had the rights to The House I Grew Up (Annie-Soleil Proteau), Papa Hammer (Réal Béland), Passion Poussière (Sarah-Jeanne Labrosse), Chez Marie-Mai ( Marie-Mai), “Our First Strike” (Ingrid Falaise), Site Manager (Patrick Groulx), Step by Step (Marilou), Couple at Work (Marie-Soleil Dion and Louis-Olivier Mauffette), Richard’s daring renovation (Richard Turcotte ), how to renovate when you lead a crazy life! (Brigitte Lafleur), How to Renovate Without Arguing Too Much (Saskia Thuot) and Two Sisters and a Maisonette (Valérie Chevalier).
In light of this tsunami, I wrote in Le Journal two years ago: “How many stars can we see with hammer in hand, dust in their hair, hard hat on their head, sanding a floor, handling a jigsaw, plastering a wall, etc . paint a ceiling? »
We have to think we haven’t exhausted the source, as we’ve learned over the past few weeks that Béatrice Martin (Coeur de Pirate) would be renovating a “rustic chalet” for a series titled Les 12 travaux de Béatrice , which will be broadcast on CASA in 2024, that Christine Beaulieu would redesign her kitchen and turn her shed into a porch for a series on VÉRO.TV in the 2023-2024 season. The actress will focus on the challenges related to the energy transition.
Last Tuesday, Canal vie aired the final episode of Jour J, showing the renovation work being carried out by Julie Snyder at her hotel on the Îles-de-la-Madeleine.
Christine Beaulieu recently told Bonsoir, bonsoir! that she had laid ceramic tiles. “It must really be a challenge,” interjected Jean-Philippe Wauthier in amazement.
I asked Marc Pichette, Public Relations at Crown Corporation, “What does Radio-Canada’s public television mandate look like to produce a renovation program that private producers do very well?” »
His response: “Radio-Canada’s mission is to inform, educate and entertain. Under this mandate, Radio-Canada can offer a renovation program if needed. In the case of this proposal in particular, the ecological axis of this production will not only fulfill the mission to entertain, but also the mission to inform and enlighten, resulting in a content fully in line with the mission of the broadcaster. »
I asked him about the production budget. His answer: “This is information of a competitive nature.”
And when I asked what the ratings of VÉRO.TV were, he replied: “As with all other content of ICI TOU.TV, the ratings for programs in the VÉRO area are. TV confidential.”
But just between us, why would taxpayers pay for another renovation show on state television?
NEXT !
I recently met an actor friend who was looking to “fix” an old house in the Eastern Townships.
“You should make a TV show out of this!” I chuckle at him.
“Shooting will start in the fall,” he replied gravely.
