Eurovision sucks at seeing you!

The first transmission of her song entitled ZARI to represent our country in the 68th Song Contest made yesterday, Thursday, March 7, 2023, ERT through the extraordinary show “Eurovision in I saw”, with Fotis Sergulopoulos and Jenny Melita. A presentation that makes sense is that public television wished to gather viewers on its frequency to listen to the song of Greek participation in this year’s Eurovision and watch the video clip with Marina Satti. So they made sure the carpet was laid, but the show turned out to be a mess where not many viewers left to watch. The result was for such a television event from which public television could have won, eventually recording low flights on ratings tables. Specifically… and rightly so… the Eurovision show (sucks) in I saw 6.6% in the general total and 7.6% in the dynamic audience, while the first transmission of the song through the video clip gathered 9.2% of the television audience. In fact, I have to clarify that this view is not about the artistic result, but about the Eurovision show (sucks) in which public television once again stood less than television. First of all, I consider Marina Satti very interesting and special artistic personality and I accept that it is her desire to represent our country with this kind of song, “marriage” sounds and musical genres of different cultures, as she has done with another song… which reminded me of ZARI. I confess that this particular species… is not in my main ears… but I hear the arguments of those who listen to it and those who serve it. Whether to win other countries to vote for it will be seen on May 9th, when the second semi-final with Marina will be held Satty to… throw her ZARI at the scene of Malmö, Sweden. But let’s go, to the Eurovision emergency show, to see what ERT has shown, and only… an extraordinary TV result didn’t work. So while on the one hand they present a song that follows “modern currents and sounds of the music industry” on the other they lay a… mess carpet for viewers, rough and full of holes. Of course I’ll… overlook the hole with the, where they blundered and publicly opened the video before its first transmission from the air of ERT1. But on the occasion of this… drill I will stand on the television product, the video clip. which despite its “modern” musical listening that communicates creators and factors, the image has aesthetics and script… rough video cassette ‘90s, with even problematic sound since in some places you have to go back the video to listen again and again to understand the Greek verse. It seems, however, that this… naydila was not only left in the video clip with the… original idea of the tourist “knowing” Athens, but in the same atmosphere and aesthetics most of the show was set up, with video-dedications without inspiration, modern look and television proposal for such a highly advertised television product that could be at many levels profitable for public television. And the… originality was exhausted with the poll made by presenter Jenny Melita in the Regiment wearing evening toilets, but also sunglasses (!!!) clearly trying to give… cute “eyes”, while in essence it was to fill like the show and toss the time to delay the screening of the video clip… as long as possible. It is unnecessary to say that since you have Mister Eurovision (and not only!) Foka Evangelino, you could have organized a truly thoughtful tribute to what he’s done in the music competition and not… booty with endless videos and photographs of his cosmic exits. From the pre-managed unmanaged television product I will exclude Thanasis flour and Gerom Kaluta who ” took it on them musically” creating with their talent the only pleasant and original part of the show. For all the above… and many more… justifiably “pain came” to ERT and “falled and rolled” on the ratings boards not from ZARI, but from the… rasati that some people face on public television such products, proving that “Put your hands up” keep it… only in the lyrics, with the logic “And let us bring what he wants after”!
