History

edit

Under the regime of Zine el Abidine Ben Ali, the show is broadcast under another name Qaddachna Lougik ! (How logical as we are !), during the month of Ramadan and did not talk about politics but about culture, sport and society. After the Tunisian revolution and the departure of Ben Ali, it was renamed. His first broadcast was on May 9, 2011 with puppets of Ben Ali, Béji Caïd Essebsi and Nabil Karoui. Following the success of this single episode, it turned into a regular program, inserted in the emission of Moez Ben Ghabia inspired by Grand Journal, Ettesia Massaa ( 21 Hours ), from March 1, 2012. It is broadcast every Thursday until June 19, 2012.[1] It is then broadcast every night during the second half of Ramadan 2012.
