Great numbers in Germany after last years.

 

[JackBauer]

Eurovision must be taken out of France 3 hands before it's late.

Also, how long before Italy leaves again ? Seriously one of the biggest star represent them and only 1 million...

Eurovision must be taken out of France 3 hands before it's late.

And then, where to go ? On channel number 19 France Ô ? Like the Semi-Final ?

 

[JackBauer]

Tf1, Canal + and France 5 all EBU members and would all do a much much better job.

 

[FilipFromSweden]

I think the big 5 would benefit of participating in a semi-final.

Anywho, this looks great.

TF1 hates Eurovision, they withdrew in the 80's.

Canal+ is a nice idea, didn't think about it, but then they must broadcast it in clear, not crypted.

France 5 is definitly not the channel for Eurovision.

Maybe France 2 should take back the contest.

I don't know ESC is that popular in Austria , probably because of the beard

 

[Mlyn]

The second half of the voting after midnight had a share of 73% and 1.5 mio viewers in

 

[HarryUK]

Them figures will be down next year for no doubt after last night

In France is so low because in final dont be Israel, Portugal (and Turkey if take part), this three comunity have 2 milions people in France.

No, it's bad because France 3 sends crap music and the French know they won't win.

Not neccessarily. It depends what the BBC do. If they provide more promotion or pick a song that could do very well then people will watch. I think that figure was particularly helped because of Poland making the final so all the polish communities were watching and voting.

How well was Eurovision followed in your country?


rtg 9%, share 23%

Re: How well was Eurovision followed in your country?

I think our ratings for the entire week are announced tomorrow, so we'll see.

France is so low beacause we send crappy and crappier entries every time.

I feel like everyone in Europe is starting to like Eurovision again except in France so i'm extremely worried about us.

They put zero energy into selecting the song and creating a good show. Okay the performance for France was dreadful but they made no effort on the backdrop, no effort on the costumes, no effort on the stage....

Even Anggunn and Amandine, they selected good artists imo, but wtf about those songs. If that was the Swedish or Azeri Broadcaster, both of them would have said the song was too weak and look for something better.

There is clearly something wrong with the mentality in france

I think the big 5 should be in semi-finals too, not because it isn't fair, but because I think they have to try harder then. They also will do better in the grand final, because a lot of people heard the song before.

How is it surprising? Austria did win

I think it's a good rating for the broadcaster's usual ones. Remember it's broacasted on RAI 2, not RAI 1.

It depends on competition, lead in, the song and weather not yesterdays result
