Audience Council praises "Glanz & Gloria" and Super League

According to the audience council, the people magazine "Glanz & Gloria" reports on well-known personalities in an independent way. A majority of the Council welcomes the focus on celebrities from Switzerland. This distinguishes it from the people magazines of the German private stations. They are not pleased about contributions in which SRF employees are reported on and self-promotion is carried out. The presenters led through the program in a likeable and relaxed manner. "G & G weekend," on the other hand, could do with a bit more speed in the eyes of the audience council: According to the statement, the weekend edition seems a bit too long and loses some of its suspense. In the daily "Glanz & Gloria" program, on the other hand, the length of the contributions and the duration of the program were appropriate.

The expansion of coverage of the domestic Football Super League on Swiss radio and television (SRF) has met with approval from a majority of the audience council. The live broadcasts on Sunday afternoons would convince with professionalism and the inclusion of co-commentators. According to the audience council, the supporting program is informative and entertaining, but is at the upper limit in terms of scope. A conflict of objectives is seen in the selection of live matches. On the one hand, it is appreciated that all teams are shown over several Sundays, but on the other hand, it is not always possible to show the top game of the round. The Council is satisfied with the quality of the live broadcasts, but criticizes the English-language inserts. The viewers' council sees the inclusion of the Super League in "Sportpanorama" on Sunday evenings as positive. This is in keeping with the importance of football. The appearance of a commentator as an expert in the studio is also well received. However, some council members wonder whether so much football is really necessary in "Sportpanorama" after ninety minutes of live play and an extensive supporting program in the afternoon.
