NET5 program Buzz cancelled: 'Not the development we had hoped for'
Talpa is canceling the NET5 entertainment program Buzz on October 23 because it failed to achieve satisfactory viewership numbers. Although the show gained traction through short clips on social media, the program as a whole did not meet audience expectations.
The Dutch television channel NET5 has announced the cancellation of its entertainment program Buzz due to disappointing viewership numbers. Although individual segments performed well on social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok, the show failed to capture a large enough audience during its linear broadcasts. The final episode is scheduled to air on October 23, ending the project after it drew only a few tens of thousands of viewers since its launch.
Hosted by Iris Enthoven and Wiesje Hillen, Buzz featured a revolving panel of influencers and media personalities, including Défano Holwijn and Tim Senders, who discussed the latest entertainment news. While Talpa, the media company behind the show, expressed regret over its lack of development, they continue to manage other content such as True Crime Today. Despite that program also experiencing low viewership, Talpa remains optimistic about its potential for future growth.
