TVA Nouvelles: Martin Matte has been working on the show for a few months, which he will direct at TVA from September 2023. It’s a blast from a weekly talk show that combines interviews, musical performances with a house band, stand-up, “live” or already filmed skits, topos and even fiction.
“We will push humor in all its forms, offer a big party and emotions every week.” Perfectionist, a bit anxious and inclined to rehearse for a long time before being in the limelight, Martin Matte enjoys the preparation time, a “luxury” 10 months after the premiere.
He has surrounded himself with a team of writers – including his longtime collaborator François Avard – and he will soon be arriving for a show to be ready when the train leaves the station for 10 episodes presented live. , next fall . TVA reportedly asked Martin Matte to go on the air in the spring, but he needed more time. Not wanting to write another solo show, the comedian, comedian, writer, director and producer set out on his own.
When TVA approached him to host a talk show, he already had several ideas in mind. He wanted to face a new challenge and had reached this level primarily as a comedian, like Jimmy Fallon or Jimmy Kemmel before him in the USA. His idol and role model for talk shows, however, remains David Letterman. The “framework” of the show is already fixed, but neither the time slot nor the title are fixed yet. Martin Matte, who was also approached by another station for a talk show, opted for TVA, where he presented his hit comedy “Les beaux malaises”.
“It was natural for me to return to TVA, where I had been given carte blanche for Les beaux malaises. I still have the same carte blanche,” said he, who is producing the show with his team at Encore Television. “There’s something that comes close to me in my stage stand-up. We’re going to do a “show”, it’s “live”, we witness a moment, it’s stressful and exciting at the same time.
Yeah, I’m jumping in there because I’ve never done it before, but I’m doing it after years of getting up and acting and I’ve got nine months before it starts.” He’s happy to settle down at Espace St-Denis, a complete “There are so many possibilities in this space and it’s a comeback for me because that’s where I started my first show ‘True Stories’.”
Martin Matte used his swaggering “character” for years after graduating from the National School of Humor in 1995, then offered a less than perfect version of himself, blending fiction and reality in “Les beaux malaise,” a project which allowed him to broaden his horizons. At 52 he wants to be himself on his set, which means funny, biting, sensitive, cheeky, vulnerable, ironic, haunting and provocative.
“Age has something to do with being in my fifties, I’m calmer, I have less to prove. I’ve done hundreds of “shows”, I’ve done TV series, it was a hit. I wanted to be in a gang, have collaborators, have a team. I also didn’t want to do a daily that forces you to do just that. The other TVA talk show “It ends well the week” will also be continued next fall, the station has also confirmed.
