Beware of spoilers… We're talking about television here.

Come on, do we take a look at the TV news?
The number of the week
We prefer to warn you right away: you will see millions scroll by.
Probably not in your bank account (sorry) but in the following lines since we are going to talk about
The Promise
.
The series carried by Sofia Essaïdi and launched by TF1 last week was a hit with 7.11 million viewers on average for the first two episodes.
It was then the best launch for a French series since 2015 on the channel.
A week later, the numbers for the replay are just as crazy.
856,000 French people watched the first catch-up episode for a total of 8.31 million views.
The score of the second episode is even higher than the first on MYTF1: 1.13 million people watched it in replay, or 7.88 million plays overall.
We told you, that's a lot of millions.
The instant zapping
Threatened with death because of a slip of the tongue.
Thursday, on the set of
L'Equipe du soir
, columnist Giovanni Castaldi mentioned the PSG-OM match on February 7, but his tongue forked.
“When you see a PSG-OMerde…” he said before immediately asking for forgiveness.
The journalist was kindly chambered by his colleagues in the studio but the atmosphere was very different on social networks where some Internet users accused him of having done it on purpose.
“I forked and at no time was my intention to insult the club.
We must stop this madness and paranoia!
Nothing justifies death threats, ”reacted Giovanni Castaldi on his Twitter account.

The announcer news
Before moving on to the “popcorn” news, what if we take a video break to watch what awaits us on TV this Saturday?
A busy schedule, you will see it!
The popcorn info
For lovers of numbers, here's a last one for the road: € 92,831.
This is the prize pool won by Quentin, the current champion of the
12 Coups de midi
by guessing who was hiding behind the mysterious star of last Thursday (for information, it was Bénabar).
The candidate then won this incredible sum which has been one of the biggest stakes in ten years.
Just a year ago, fifteen personalities decided to fall up and down to send a message in favor of cancer screening in
Stars in the nude
on TF1.
The experience will be repeated this year with thirteen other celebrities.
Friday February 5, we will discover the men's show: Camille Lacourt, Christophe Beaugrand, Cartman, Laurent Maistret, Vincent Desagnat, Gil Alma and Jeanfi Janssens.
Then it will be the turn of the women: Maeva Coucke, Nathalie Marquay-Pernaut, Linda Hardy, Inès Vandamme, Anaïs Grangerac and Lola Dubini.
How to say goodbye to them?
The answer might be "looking at all their twists and turns again."
»Last October, France 2 broadcast the last episodes of the heroes of
Dix Pour Cent
.
But for those who haven't had time to see it all, Salto makes the four seasons of the series available on Salto.
It will be a good reason to get on your 31st from 6pm after the curfew.
