Jean-Philippe Wauthier therefore missed the end of the season of The day (is still young). He also had to be replaced for the start of the season of Good evening Good evening!.
“I think we all have an elastic that we stretch. We do not know what is the maximum tension of this elastic. We all have one at birth. We play with it until it farts. And you can’t really know when he is going to fart, ”illustrated Jean-Philippe Wauthier on Thursday evening, when he was invited from the show that he normally hosts.
His return to the bar of Good evening Good evening! had been confirmed by Radio-Canada last week. Since the beginning of the summer, it was first Marie-Claude Barrette, then Jean-Sébastien Girard who ensured the animation of the summer talk show in the absence of Jean-Philippe Wauthier.
Lors de sa dernière à Bonsoir bonsoir !, Jean-Sébastien Girard a demandé à l’animateur s’il se sentait complètement prêt à revenir au travail.
« Il n’y a personne qui [peut savoir quand il est prêt à revenir au travail]. There is no green light that turns on, ”replied Jean-Philippe Wauthier, who says he is not bored to be in front of the spotlight during this break.
He also confided that he had not watched television in the last three months. Despite everything, he would like to thank Jean-Sébastien Girard for ensuring continuity at the helm of Good evening Good evening! and The day (is still young).
The return of The day (is still young) On the first time was confirmed for the end of the summer. It is still unknown for the moment, however, if Jean-Philippe Wauthier will find his microphone at the start of the school year. “Jean-Philippe will go there one day at the same time and we will see for the future,” said one for the time on the side of the public broadcaster.
