It had been almost three years to the day since the RTS hadn’t held a press conference. On Tuesday, March 14th, she invited the press to unveil a “historic” decision: the abolition of the summer program in favor of a program called “Belle Saison”, which runs over three months every year starting at the end of May. The idea is to better meet the expectations of the public looking for more relaxation, more escape, more freshness. In short, light content.
Among these we can mention the arrival of “Cuisines sans frontières”, a national co-production in seven episodes in which “secundos” revisit culinary specialties from their country of origin. In “Experience Yukon” two French-speaking families try (sur)living in Canada’s wild north-west. But also quite an outcast for the RTS, adding the services of Roxane (“The Best Pastry Chef” 2015) – 4.24 million subscribers to his YouTube channel. Unknown to her fans, she will come to make candy. Finally, starting May 27, “52 Minutes” makes way for new entertainment,
Who is telling the truth? Who lies?
Every Saturday at 8:10 p.m. Jonas Schneiter presents “Tu Bluffs”. Faced with thirty candidates, including three personalities (Myret Zaki, Laurence Bisang and Thomas Wiesel), anonymous people come to tell an incredible story that happened to them… or not. Who is telling the truth? Who lies? To find out, they are “cooked” by the candidates. Then place of voting: “bluff” or “truth”.
“Tu bluffs” is part of the entertainment trend of advise (guessing games). On YouTube, Squeezie or McFly and Carlito are a hit with this kind of concept. Jonas Schneiter says he received about 400 stories. Whoever heads the “Beaux Parleurs” on La 1ère on Sunday is happy to return to the performance of entertainment. “There are some interviews, there are stories, we have fun together, that’s what I like about this type of game.” Twelve issues and a best-of will be broadcast. If the RTS tells the truth.

“Hello!” What kid doesn’t hear The Stories of Millie D.? The podcast, launched in 2020, written by Christine Pompeï and narrated by Anouck Merz, is the most listened to on RTS. And that’s because she has followers far beyond western Switzerland. Books with the image of the little fairy will appear next week on the occasion of the Salon du livre. Videos on different designers are also planned. And a Millie D. cabin was inaugurated in the CHUV ten days ago. In it four iPads and headsets. The idea is to have these huts pop up everywhere, in hospitals, in libraries.
