The band puts the hammer down on the presenters who will take Faustão’s place. According to Flávio Ricco of the R7 portal, this Thursday (25th) the channel selected a team of exGlobals to direct the show in prime time, including Glenda Kozlowski and Zeca Camargo.
According to the columnist, the new daily attraction aims to combine journalism with entertainment and to hold audiences back after “Jornal da Band.” The idea is for Kozlowski and Camargo to come into play after a team reformulation starting in August. With the departure of Fausto Silva, most of the pros will be reinstated, however directors Beto Silva, Renato Moreira and Cris Gomes will leave the channel along with the TV veteran.

The presenter also complained about the rushed routine that kept him busy during the week. “This business of [programa] “Every day, every day, even though it only records three times a week, you’re actually there all week,” he explained. The dissatisfaction contributed to the low viewership (in the region of 2.5 points) in the lowgrossing São Paulo area and marked the end of that cycle in the professional’s career.
