A little over two weeks ago, Alberto Matano, presenter of La vita in diretta, closed the program of the first station with a welcome to the audience, at the end of a season peppered with successes. On this occasion he said goodbye to the spectators in the courtyard of the “Raffaella Carrà” TV production center and thanked the entire crew: “I have nothing to say except a huge thank you to all the people who make a significant contribution every day to the story, what do we do? Then the announcement that had startled everyone: “I don’t know what will happen after the next Live Lifebut I hope to be able to meet other colleagues in this way.” Some took the news as a farewell. Oh well, It didn’t take long for it to emerge that the host would be back at the helm of the showand in doing so he will end up competing with one of the leading faces of the Mediaset network. Will he be able to hold his own?
Matano wins on Saturday
Matano recently confessed to SuperGuida TV: “I’ve never felt tired because the audience loves us, follows us and waits for us. I’m used to seeing what’s happening day by day. The perspective now is to repeat La Vita in diretta. I don’t know what will happen next, but the hope for the future is to find a team like the one I have. But the blog Davide Maggio confirms Matano’s cryptic words and takes up a novelty announced by Rai Pubblicità, which launches the exclusive that all the fans of the presenter have been waiting for: it seems so Matano will return with great pomp with Live Life on September 11thTherefore, Rai will experiment with the show and extend the normal weekly broadcast by one day. Oh well, not only on the usual date on Friday, but now also in one of the most critical time windows of the Rai week: Saturday afternoon. It’s, shall we say, a temporary test, currently scheduled to run from September 16th to October 7th (so only for four episodes). He replaces Marco Liorni’s Italia Sìand is awaiting its restart on October 14th.
The comparison with toffanin
This is an experiment not to be underestimated. We’re certainly not expecting a ratings revolution, but a name like Matano’s could help Rai Mediaset Contestwhere the latter has always been excellent thanks to the presence of the famous program “Verissimo” performed by Pier Silvio Berlusconi’s partner Silvia Toffanin. So Matano will have to assert himself not only with the new Mediaset face Myrta Merlino, but also with the queen of the network. In fact, Silvia was supposed to make her expected comeback on September 16thAs such, we expect plenty of sparks for this date, which will also mark Matano’s weekend debut.
