Is it the desire for a good dose of strategy, adventure and a change of scenery that pushed viewers to tune in to TF1 this Friday? Or would it be curiosity to know if “Les 4 Terres” will find a worthy successor to Claude? Still, the public responded to the call of this new season of Koh-Lanta . This Friday evening, the first episode conquered 5.66 million people on average according to Médiamétrie, or 31% of audience share. This is much more than the launch of the previous edition, which had gathered only 4.64 million viewers. It was then the worst audience for a season launch.

It must be said that the novelties of the “4 Terres” had something to arouse curiosity. For the first time in the history of the game, four teams, coming from the four major French regions, compete in Fiji. The first episode was marked by the sporting exploits of Brice and Dorian, the two candidates from the Western tribe, who overwhelmed their opponents alone by carrying 50 kg of rope. The adventures of the East team, which found itself on the islet of exile for 24 hours (another novelty of the season), also delighted viewers. Despite this big handicap, the adventurers managed to win the immunity game the next day.

“What an audience for the return of Koh-Lanta  ! "

The strategies, which make all the salt of the show, were not put aside at the start of the competition. After their defeat on the second day, the northern tribe found themselves facing Denis Brogniart for the much-feared advice. Attention, a spoiler is hidden in the following sentence: it is finally Marie-France who was eliminated unanimously by her comrades. This does not mean that the candidate keeps resentment in her, as she explained in her interview with 20 Minutes .

On his Twitter account, Denis Brogniart welcomed the scores of the program, even after nearly two decades on the air. “What an audience for Koh-Lanta's return last night! Thank you, thank you, thank you for your loyalty and your enthusiasm! So happy and proud to present this adventure for 19 years! ”He wrote.
