It hosted by Farah Yasmine Nia, with a group of columnists, including Merouane Guerouabi, Zoubir Belhor and Chemseddine Lamrani.[1]
A casting was announced by Not Found Prod on November 3, 2016 to choose other columnists for the show.[3]
Concept
editThe idea of the show is simple: to see or to review striking pictures of the week in the best spirit possible and with good rhythm.[1][2] But it's not a simple zapping[clarification needed] because Farah Yasmine and her team of columnists discuss new or polemical happenings and events without forgetting the pictures to not miss, with some special headings. Two or three guests talk about their life and their favourite show during each J8 episode, and sometimes, it's an opportunity to do some type of challenges.
