Small news regarding the Channel 5 television schedule: during the day of Thursday 18 March 2021 there will be some changes involving two of Maria De Filippi’s most important broadcasts, namely Friends e Men and women.
Both shows will not air, skipping an episode. To anticipate it is Davide Maggio, who explained the reasons why De Filippi would have taken this decision, in a particularly delicate moment for his production company, Fascino – le statements by Pietro Delle Piane its Temptation Island, in the course of its hosted a Live – It’s not D’Urso, they kicked off one lawsuit against the actor himself.
Thursday 18 March, the daily appointment with Men and women and the subsequent afternoon slot dedicated to Friends 2021 they will take a little break. The reason is simple: this date was chosen to celebrate the National Day for Covid Victims, and all those who have faced (and lost) the tough battle against the disease will be remembered during all the broadcasts broadcast during the 24 hours.
Maria De Filippi, however, records the episodes of her shows well in advance which are broadcast daily, rule to which Men and women e Friends they are no exception. And being ready for transmission, the two appointments scheduled for March 18 do not contain any mention of the anniversary dedicated to the victims of Covid. There was also no possibility of including it at a later stage, as it would have been requested by the Mediaset top management.
According to what was reported by Davide Maggio, indeed, the broadcaster would have proposed to De Filippi to edit the episodes or to make a hat to be broadcast before the two appointments, but the presenter would have preferred to avoid these solutions. So Men and women e Friends they skip Thursday’s episode directly, returning as usual the next day. It is not yet clear what will be broadcast in their place.
This is bad news for the most loyal audience: if a Men and women we are in the middle of a season full of surprises and twists, for Amici we have reached a crucial stage. In a few days the evening will begin, and the boys are in fibrillation waiting for the new and very difficult challenges that await them.
